About Angelique
Angelique Gettle is a licensed marriage and family therapist with 25 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, and compassion fatigue. She is based in California and approaches work with warmth and respect. Angelique listens carefully and helps people take practical steps forward in hard moments.
Her sessions are interactive and centered on each person's experience. She draws on Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify what matters to them and build motivation for change. She also uses Attachment-Based and Client-Centered ideas to pay attention to relationship patterns and personal strengths.
Angelique blends cognitive and emotionally-focused tools to address thinking patterns and strong feelings. She uses everyday language and straightforward exercises so people can practice skills between sessions. Art and animal-assisted activities may be included when they fit a person’s goals and comfort.
With a human-centered style, she focuses on listening, validating, and helping people try new ways of coping. Sessions tend to be collaborative, focusing on goals the person sets. Angelique invites people to take steps at their own pace and supports gradual, lasting change.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work
Angelique uses Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify what they want and build real motivation for change. That approach focuses on asking questions, reflecting back what people say, and supporting small, doable steps toward goals. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to look at how early relationship patterns affect current feelings and connections. It helps people notice how they relate to others and practice new interactions that feel safer and more connected.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has worked or not worked before. Together they choose methods that feel practical and manageable, and they adapt those methods as needs change over time.
Confirm the current session options before booking, since specific formats were not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, or using video or phone choices that match a person's comfort and bandwidth. Licensed professionals can combine focused skills practice, conversation, and creative activities like art or animal-related exercises when those fit a client's goals. -
