About Angela
Angela Avery is a licensed mental health counselor in Florida with 22 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and family challenges, and trauma. Parents who are worried about parenting struggles or blended family tensions will find practical, straightforward help.
She also addresses issues like self-esteem, intimacy-related concerns, anger, and compassion fatigue. Her sessions begin with listening closely to each person’s story. She treats clients as experts on their own lives and helps them notice strengths they might be overlooking.
Background and approach
Therapy moves at the client’s pace and focuses on small, usable steps that fit daily life. Angela uses several well-established approaches to shape the work. She blends Attachment-Based Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy to build safety and trust.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are taught when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are priorities. Across 22 years she has supported people coping with adoption and foster care concerns, attachment and abandonment issues, caregiver stress, codependency, and communication problems.
She also works with clients dealing with divorce, domestic violence, and disruptive mood challenges such as DMDD. Sessions are offered in English and delivered online by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Angela’s license is FL LMHC MH9279 and she practices in Florida.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session.
Therapeutic approaches that translate to online care
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on building trust and stronger emotional connections. It looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people form more supported ways of relating, which can ease family and intimacy tensions.Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s experience and choices. The therapist listens without judgment and follows the client’s lead, which helps people feel heard and supported while they sort through problems and goals.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress and gives clear tools people can practice between sessions.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, needs, and preferences and recommend methods that fit. Plans are adjusted over time so the work stays relevant and useful.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. This variety makes it easier to fit sessions into busy family schedules, to follow up between meetings, and to use different formats for different goals. Licensed professionals can use these options to meet clients where they are and support steady progress.
Attachment-Based Therapy
Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
