About Angelica
Angelica Washington is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with four years of clinical experience in Florida. She focuses on stress, anxiety, LGBT concerns, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, coping with life changes, and trauma and abuse. Her practice addresses these concerns in straightforward, practical sessions.
She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new responses. She also draws on client-centered methods to prioritize the person's perspective. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are used when emotional regulation and distress tolerance are a focus.
In sessions she talks through specific situations and patterns that cause distress. Expect short, concrete exercises and step-by-step planning that can be practiced between meetings. The emphasis is on what to try differently in daily life.
Angelica works with a range of concerns beyond the main specialties, including attachment issues, body image, codependency, communication problems, chronic illness and pain, and complications related to relationships and separation. She also lists experience with BDSM, kink, and alternative sex culture topics.
Her approach combines practical skills training with collaborative goal setting. She uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques to identify achievable steps. People who prefer clear, structured sessions that focus on changing specific thoughts and behaviors may find this approach helpful.
Online sessions and practical approaches
Angelica uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test new behaviors in everyday situations. CBT sessions are focused and skill-based, which can help with anxiety, stress, mood swings, and self-esteem concerns.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes the person's own perspective and priorities. That approach supports clear, person-led discussion about goals and what matters most to the individual.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are brought in when emotional regulation and distress tolerance are needed. DBT techniques include short coping strategies, grounding methods, and teaching ways to manage intense feelings without acting on them.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will review needs, goals, and preferences collaboratively and may combine methods to fit specific concerns. That decision is made together rather than assumed in advance.
