About Angela

Angela "Angie" Sheire is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 25 years of clinical experience. She practices in Texas and brings a calm, practical presence to sessions. Angie frames therapy as a partnership and focuses on helping people move forward from painful patterns.

She emphasizes the person at the center of care and aims for clear, doable steps rather than long lists of jargon. Angie began her career working in a residential treatment facility in Michigan.

Background and approach

She later worked in partial hospitalization programs for adolescents and adults, a domestic violence shelter, and a community mental health center. After relocating to Texas a decade ago, she has worked in adolescent partial hospitalization, an Employee Assistance Program, and now runs a independent practice.

Her approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, existential ideas, and mindfulness. She trained in CBT through the Beck Institute and has additional DBT training. In sessions she uses practical tools, emotion regulation skills, and narrative techniques to help people make changes.

Angie focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, eating and sleeping problems, self-esteem, grief, parenting concerns, family issues, bipolar mood concerns, and coping with life changes. She also addresses attachment and abandonment concerns, body image, codependency, infidelity, and related topics. Angie works with individual adults across a broad range of life stages.

Her style is empathetic and solution-oriented. She offers straightforward guidance, teaches skills, and helps people build plans they can use outside sessions. Angie encourages clients to treat the past as a reference point and to take small steps toward the future.

Therapeutic approaches for online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then commit to actions that line up with their values. It can help when worry, avoidance, or indecision keep someone from living the life they want. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, behaviors, and feelings interact and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and mood concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills, or DBT skills, teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improved communication to reduce impulsive reactions and improve relationships.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the person about current struggles, goals, and preferences and then suggest methods to try. Plans are adjusted as needed so techniques fit the person’s life and goals rather than forcing one fixed method.

Online work is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to give flexibility. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, follow through when travel or work gets in the way, and keep continuity during life changes. Licensed professionals can teach skills, review progress, and support homework through these formats so people can apply tools between sessions.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

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.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
