About Angela
Angela Knight is a licensed marriage and family therapist with 29 years of experience in California. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, and ADHD. She encourages clients to see their own strengths and to take practical steps toward feeling better.
Her approach is grounded in teaching skills and building on what already works. Angela uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to address patterns of thinking and coping.
Background and approach
She also draws on emotionally focused work to help people understand feelings in relationships. Sessions are collaborative and straightforward. Angela treats clients as the experts on their lives and offers tools that can be practiced between visits.
She focuses on clear, usable strategies rather than long explanations. Her background spans nearly three decades of clinical work in California. That experience includes helping people with grief, intimacy concerns, sleep and eating struggles, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and career changes.
She also supports people dealing with adoption, attachment, and blended family issues. Therapy can include short-term skill building or longer work on deeper patterns. Angela offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules.
She works in English and does not take international clients.
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Attachment-Based Therapy helps people understand how early relationships influence current bonds and trust. It can be useful for people noticing patterns of abandonment, attachment issues, or difficulty forming close relationships.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with new behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress because it gives clear steps to change what you do and think.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Angela will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That means adjusting techniques if something does not fit and tracking progress together.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation while phone sessions can work when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, skill practice, or when a short update fits a busy day. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, and travel schedules while keeping the focus on usable skills and steady progress.
