Online support
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Angela often draws on the Gottman Method ideas for relationship skills and on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take small workable steps. The Gottman-informed work focuses on improving communication and managing conflict, while ACT helps with handling strong emotions and committing to actions that matter to you.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which means sessions are guided by what the client brings and by building a trusting, respectful relationship. Together the therapist and client decide which approaches fit best, and they adjust methods as goals evolve. That collaborative process helps find the right mix for each person's needs.
Online work is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make scheduling easier. Video lets you use face-to-face interaction for skills practice, phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, chat is useful for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and accessible while focusing on practical progress.
