About Angela
Angela Ellison is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who focuses on family and parenting concerns alongside a wide range of related issues. She helps with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, sleep problems, parenting struggles, and substance concerns. Her style is direct and practical, aimed at small steps parents can try between sessions.
Angela draws on five years of clinical practice as an LCSW. She uses easy-to-understand methods to teach coping skills and improve daily routines.
Background and approach
Sessions emphasize what a person already does well and build from those strengths. Her approach combines talking through feelings with hands-on tools. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thoughts and change small patterns.
She also applies Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person’s priorities and Emotionally-Focused Therapy when relationship worries are central. Angela works with people in Kentucky and holds the Kentucky LCSW number KY LCSW 254396. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging to fit busy schedules.
Sessions are delivered in English. Practical matters are discussed early on. Cost varies depending on location and the subscription plan used, and sessions use a cancellable subscription model.
To begin, someone completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules according to therapist availability.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client’s priorities. In a session the therapist reflects concerns back and helps the client decide what matters most, which is useful for parenting decisions and life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Online CBT sessions often include brief skills practice, simple experiments to try between sessions, and worksheets that can be reviewed over video or messaging. This approach is helpful for anxiety, sleep problems, and mood shifts.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist talks with each person about goals and preferences and then picks methods to match those needs. That choice is reviewed over time so the plan can change if something isn’t helping.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy families. Video calls let people see facial cues and practice skills in real time. Phone sessions remove screen needs, and live chat or text messaging can support shorter check-ins or coaching between appointments. These options make it easier to fit regular therapeutic work into a family schedule while keeping the focus on practical change.
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.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT)
Attends to the emotions underneath a recurring argument or distance, and to the attachment needs driving them. Often used where a relationship keeps returning to the same painful loop.
