About Angela

Angela Raymond holds a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health and has practiced as a Licensed Professional Counselor in Wisconsin since 2007. She brings 18 years of clinical experience to sessions and focuses on common family and parenting concerns such as stress, anxiety, grief, parenting challenges, and relationship strain.

Her approach aims to be practical and straightforward so parents can use what they learn right away. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, trauma-informed techniques, and play-based strategies when appropriate.

Background and approach

Sessions are shaped to match each person’s situation rather than following a strict formula. Angela emphasizes creativity and flexibility in how she works, adjusting methods to fit what actually helps a family or parent. Her style blends direct, honest conversation with warmth and a sense of humor.

She names things clearly and offers teachable moments to foster insight and change. That blend is meant to make hard conversations easier to manage and to encourage steady progress. Angela aims to help people build practical skills for managing emotions, improving communication, and handling parenting stress.

She supports those navigating mood concerns like depression and bipolar, as well as trauma, anger, and self-esteem issues. Her way of working centers on collaboration and on finding steps families can try between sessions. Clients describe a counselor who will be straightforward when needed, while also being encouraging.

She focuses on real-world tools and on helping parents and caregivers move forward at a pace that fits their lives.

How Angela’s Approaches Work Online

Angela uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thought patterns and try small changes in thinking and behavior. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and mood concerns and focuses on practical steps to feel better.

She also draws on trauma-focused techniques when past events are affecting day-to-day life. These methods aim to help people reduce the hold of painful memories and learn coping skills for triggers and strong emotions.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit. Plans change as needed, and progress is checked together so the work stays useful.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit sessions around parenting and family schedules and to continue work from home. They offer flexibility for follow-up, brief check-ins, and regular sessions so families can get support in ways that match their day-to-day life.

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.
