About Angela

Angela Marshall is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Virginia with 19 years of experience. She welcomes straightforward conversations and helps people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to begin.

She uses a person-centered style that meets people where they are. Sessions focus on practical steps toward the goals a person names. Angela aims to offer respect, sensitivity, and steady encouragement rather than labels or judgement.

Her background includes work with substance abuse, trauma, grief and loss, family conflict, anxiety, depression, transitional life challenges, and attention-deficit concerns. She also works with issues such as body image, caregiver stress, codependency, and panic attacks.

Therapy sessions typically blend cognitive-behavioral ideas with motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques. Angela also draws on emotion-focused ways of working and existential and mindfulness perspectives when they fit a person's needs. She builds each treatment plan to match the individual goals a person brings to therapy.

Angela knows starting therapy can feel hard. She offers practical support, active listening, and guidance as people try new ways of coping. To begin, clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

Approaches that translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters most to them and take action toward those values despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It can be useful for anxiety, low motivation, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms such as worry, panic, or low mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding and shifting emotional responses to improve how someone manages strong feelings and relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Angela works collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person’s goals and preferences. She adapts techniques from these approaches so the plan matches what each person wants to work on and how they prefer to engage.

Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can help fit care into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing sessions during work breaks or between errands. It also makes it easier to keep continuity during transitions and to practice skills in everyday settings. Licensed professionals can guide pacing and tools so work in sessions connects directly to what people try between meetings.
