About Angela

Angela Kieler is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 18 years of clinical experience based in Missouri. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, addiction concerns, mood disorders including bipolar and depression, and anger. She also supports people dealing with parenting challenges, career stress, ADHD, and other life changes.

Kieler has worked across diverse settings. She has experience in special education, hospice care for older adults, and addiction treatment. She has provided art therapy and individual counseling to people with severe and persistent mental illness and has worked in a hospital setting as a Qualified Mental Health Professional.

She has offered family education through the National Alliance on Mental Illness and brings both professional and personal experience with family members who have mental illness. That background informs how she helps clients navigate services and the practical hurdles of seeking care.

Her style is described as humanistic and adaptable. She uses a mix of approaches to fit what a person needs, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Client-Centered Therapy, Attachment-based ideas, Existential Therapy, and art therapy.

In sessions she aims to talk through real-life problems and create straightforward steps people can try between appointments. She emphasizes collaboration and will work with clients to choose methods that suit their goals and daily life.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Angela uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in ways that fit everyday life. ACT focuses on clarifying values and taking action even when emotions are difficult, which can help with recurring anger and stress. CBT breaks down patterns of thought and behavior and provides concrete exercises to shift reactivity and build different habits.

She also draws on client-centered and attachment-informed ideas to help people feel heard and to explore how past relationships affect current reactions. Those approaches are conversational and often involve reflecting on patterns and trying small behavioral experiments between sessions. Choosing which methods to use is a collaborative process. She will work with each person to decide which tools match their goals, preferences, and daily routines rather than imposing a single method.

Confirm the specific session formats before booking, as this profile does not list them. Online work can make fitting therapy into a busy life easier - for example, it can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a lunch break, or let someone use audio-only if bandwidth is limited. Talk with her during booking to match session length and timing to what works for your schedule.
