About Angela
Angela Williams is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York with 10 years of experience. She helps adults who are struggling with stress, anxiety, anger, relationships, depression, addiction, grief, parenting concerns, and related life changes. Angela explains things plainly and focuses on practical steps people can use right away.
She draws on a mix of approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), attachment-based work, and client-centered methods. Sessions emphasize clear goals, skill-building, and noticing patterns that keep problems going. People can expect straightforward talk about what’s happening now and concrete practices to change reactions over time.
Angela’s own life experience with grief, relationship breakdown, parenting, and family mental health challenges informs her perspective. That background helps her recognize how daily pressures pile up and how emotions like anger and resentment can become persistent. She speaks plainly about coping tools rather than clinical theory.
In sessions she invites people to name specific targets - for example getting less reactive with a partner, managing workplace frustration, or reducing impulsive responses. Conversations include practical exercises, tracking what triggers strong reactions, and testing new behaviors between sessions. She also supports people dealing with overlapping problems such as sleep, eating concerns, or ADHD that affect mood and control.
Angela works in English and practices in New York. Prospective clients should follow the site’s process to see online therapy options, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Angela often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in sessions to help people notice difficult feelings and choose actions that match their values rather than be driven by emotion. ACT is practical for anger that persists after stressful events because it focuses on small behavior changes and value-based goals.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify the thoughts that fuel strong reactions and to test different, less reactive responses. CBT gives clear tools for tracking triggers, rating urges, and practicing alternative thoughts and behaviors between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Angela treats this as a collaborative process, checking in about what feels useful and adjusting methods based on each person’s goals and preferences. She combines skill practice, brief exercises, and discussion to build on what helps most.
