    About Angela

    Angela Harmon is a licensed counselor who brings 13 years of experience to helping people find their inner worth. She is an LPC and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and focuses on helping people navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. Her approach is practical and person-centered, aimed at making therapy feel useful and understandable.

    Angela combines Motivational Interviewing with cognitive and mindfulness-based methods. Sessions often include concrete skills to manage stress and mood, and attention to how the body holds on to tension after difficult experiences. She talks with people about symptoms like sleep disruption, low self-esteem, and feeling stuck, and then works with them to try small, manageable changes.

    Her background includes working with relationship and intimacy concerns, caregiving stress, and issues tied to gender and sexuality. She also supports people dealing with ADHD, bipolar mood patterns, postpartum depression, and compassion fatigue. Angela is familiar with nontraditional relationship styles and alternative sexuality topics and brings an open, nonjudgmental stance to those conversations.

    Therapy sessions use practical tools from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy when appropriate. She also incorporates elements of the Gottman Method for relationship-focused work. The overall emphasis is on clarifying values, building coping skills, and creating realistic plans for change.

    Angela practices in Washington and conducts sessions in English. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on therapist availability.

  2. How Angela’s approaches translate to online work

    Motivational Interviewing is a conversational approach that helps people find their own reasons for change. It uses open questions and reflection to build motivation for small, doable steps toward goals.

    Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and taking committed action toward those values. It combines mindfulness with practical behavior changes to address worry, depression, and life transitions.

    Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete strategies to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, sleep problems, and mood difficulties.

    Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick strategies that fit their goals, daily life, and comfort level. Treatment plans are adjusted over time based on what helps most.

    Confirm current session options before booking, since specific formats are not listed in the profile. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and offer straightforward check-ins between appointments. Different formats can also support shorter check-ins, quieter conversations, or sessions without video when that is preferable.
