About Angela
Angela Marshall is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Virginia with 19 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, substance concerns, family conflict, transitional life changes, and ADHD among other issues. Angela focuses on clear, practical steps that clients can use between sessions.
Her style is person-centered and direct. She listens to what a person says and helps them set concrete goals. Sessions often include short exercises, problem-solving, and work on unhelpful thinking patterns.
Angela uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) along with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), emotionally-focused ideas, motivational interviewing, and elements of existential and mindfulness approaches. She combines these methods to build a plan aimed at the client’s current problems and goals. She avoids labeling and treats each person with respect.
In therapy she helps people notice thoughts and habits that get in the way, try small behavior changes, and track progress. For someone coping with loss, panic, or relationship strain, sessions will include both talking and practice tasks to try between meetings.
Practical logistics and direct feedback are part of the work. Angela helps clients set measurable steps and reviews what worked or didn’t. That makes it easier to adjust the plan as life changes.
If someone is ready to begin, Angela asks them to complete a brief questionnaire and schedule an initial session so they can map out next steps together.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Angela commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in her work. CBT focuses on noticing and testing unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavior changes to see what helps. ACT emphasizes identifying values and taking committed action even when uncomfortable feelings are present. Both approaches are practical and task oriented, which can work well in remote sessions.She also draws from emotionally focused ideas to help people understand patterns in close relationships and to practice new ways of responding. Deciding which approach to emphasize is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals and preferences together and choose techniques that fit the client’s needs and pace.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people use video or audio depending on their comfort and bandwidth. The therapist will discuss which format best supports the planned work during the initial scheduling steps.
