About Angela
Angela Garlick is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years of professional experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, anger and related concerns. Sessions are presented in a straightforward, person-centred way focused on clear listening and practical thinking.
Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioural methods, mindfulness and psychodynamic ideas alongside client-centred practice. She uses talking, mindful noticing and practical steps to help reduce reactivity and manage strong feelings. Angela encourages people to notice patterns, try small changes and reflect on what matters to them.
People come to her with problems such as sleep disruption, low self-esteem, parenting strain, career stress, bipolar mood challenges, ADHD-related difficulties, compassion fatigue and life transitions. She also works on issues like abandonment, attachment, control and forgiveness. Sessions aim to make emotional responses easier to understand and live with day to day.
Angela frames the therapeutic work as collaborative. She listens first, then suggests approaches that fit the person’s goals. Over time she uses practical exercises, thought skills and reflective discussion to build new ways of responding to anger and frustration.
She practises in the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English. People who are seeking support are asked to follow the site booking steps to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Angela uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify values and take small committed actions that reduce distress. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and can help with ongoing anger and frustration.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and replace them with practical steps. CBT can be useful for anger that shows up at work, at home or during transitions. Client-Centred Therapy provides a listening-led foundation where the person’s perspective guides the work and helps build trust before practical methods are introduced.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to decide which approach or combination fits a person’s goals and preferences. That collaborative planning continues as sessions progress and aims to match techniques to what helps most.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or remove travel time. It also supports continuing the same therapeutic work when life circumstances change, while the therapist and client adapt methods to what works in practice.
