Angela Fleischer, LCSW - Therapist in Oregon

About Angela

Angela Fleischer is a licensed clinical social worker in Oregon. She brings 10 years of professional experience to work focused on family and parenting concerns as well as stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, and life transitions. She aims to create a straightforward, nonjudgmental space where parents and caregivers can talk about what’s hard and find practical next steps.

She has a long public-facing career that includes coordinating equity and grievance work at a university and training interviewers in trauma-informed investigative methods.

Background and approach

That background informs how she approaches safety, boundaries, and careful listening in sessions. She has also worked alongside lawmakers and community boards on violence prevention efforts. Her practice includes supporting people affected by sexual violence, intimate partner violence, stalking, and childhood sexual abuse.

She has experience addressing post-traumatic stress and has worked with first responder populations in professional contexts. She also helps people with everyday struggles like parenting stress, relationship communication, career transitions, and coping with major life changes. Angela uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients name problems, try new ways of communicating, and develop coping skills.

The work is practical and collaborative: she and the client set goals and test approaches that fit the family’s life. Sessions are offered in English. Clients should expect a direct, experienced clinician who balances practical guidance with attention to safety.

The goal is clearer communication, reduced overwhelm, and stronger steps forward for families and caregivers.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Angela uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One approach emphasizes trauma-informed interviewing and care, which centers on safety, trust, and careful listening to help people process traumatic experiences. This is useful for survivors of sexual violence, intimate partner violence, and other forms of trauma. Another approach focuses on skills for managing anxiety and stress, teaching concrete tools for coping, grounding, and reducing overwhelm so parents can respond more calmly in tense moments.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person or family to identify goals and then tries methods that fit their needs and preferences. Adjustments are made over time based on what helps most in everyday life.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. These options let parents and caregivers fit therapeutic work around schedules, childcare, and work commitments. The formats also allow steady contact between sessions when that supports progress.
