    About Angela

    Angela Bellinghausen is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner (LIMHP) based in Colorado. She brings three decades of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, sleep problems, addictions, relationship concerns, and life transitions. Her approach is practical and down-to-earth, aimed at helping people make small changes that add up.

    Angela uses a mix of therapies to match each person's needs. She draws on Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and client-centered techniques to teach skills for emotion regulation, clearer thinking, and better communication.

    Sessions focus on what matters to the person in front of her. Angela helps people build coping skills, tackle avoidance, and handle painful feelings like guilt, shame, or loneliness. She supports work on body image, eating and food-related issues, and women’s concerns without centering a diagnosis.

    Her style blends practical skill work with listening. She aims to create a space where people can explore values, set realistic goals, and practice new habits between sessions. This includes techniques to reduce panic, manage seasonal mood shifts, and improve sleep.

    With long experience in mental health, Angela frames treatment around recovery and wellness instead of labels. Prospective clients in Colorado can expect a collaborative process that respects their goals and pace.

  2. How these approaches work online and in collaboration

    Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change by using curiosity and open questions. It is useful for decisions about substance use, habits, or making life adjustments. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on identifying personal values and taking small actions that match those values while learning to live with difficult feelings. It can help with anxiety, depression, and finding direction. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s perspective and priorities, offering nonjudgmental listening and support to build self-trust and clarity.

    Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they will try methods that match the person’s needs and adjust them over time in a collaborative way.

    Practical benefits of online therapy include easier fits into busy days and reduced travel time. Online sessions can make it simpler to have shorter check-ins during a break or to avoid commuting after work. Because session formats were not specified in the biography, confirm which formats are offered before booking so you know what to expect. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches to remote sessions and help clients practice skills between meetings to support progress.
