About Angela

Angela Marshall is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Virginia with 19 years of clinical experience. She focuses on clear, practical steps to help people manage stressful life moments and emotional struggles. Her work often includes concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, substance use, relationship strain, and ADHD.

She uses a person-centered style that meets people where they are. Sessions are collaborative and goal-oriented. She avoids stigmatizing labels and treats each person with respect and compassion.

Background and approach

Her approach blends several methods to match a person’s needs. Angela draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to help change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also uses motivational interviewing to support people who feel stuck or unsure about change.

Clients can expect straightforward conversation, practical strategies, and gentle encouragement. Angela helps people build skills for managing panic, improving communication, and coping with major life changes. She also addresses issues like body image, caregiver stress, codependency, and isolation.

Therapy plans are created with the client’s goals in mind. Angela adapts techniques to fit daily life and routines. She supports people who want steady progress without judgment.

To begin, a short matching process and scheduling step is used to pair a person with her. Sessions are offered through online formats that suit different needs and lifestyles.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Options

Angela frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, panic, and many daily stressors because it teaches concrete skills and step-by-step practice.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify values and take meaningful steps even when difficult feelings are present. ACT supports coping with life transitions, chronic worry, and struggles like ADHD by linking actions to what matters most.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose or blend methods based on goals, what has or hasn’t helped before, and personal preferences. Adjustments are made as progress is tracked and needs change.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls provide a face-to-face experience for in-depth work and teaching skills. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging allow brief check-ins, coaching between sessions, or a lower-intensity way to name concerns. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy lives while keeping a steady path toward goals.
