About Angela
Angela Kieler is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, ADHD, and relationship concerns. She speaks plainly and aims to make therapy manageable for busy parents and caregivers. Her style is approachable and practical, focused on small steps that fit daily life.
She has 18 years of experience across many settings. That includes work with children in special education and with elderly adults in hospice.
Background and approach
She has also provided art therapy and individual counseling to people living with addictions and persistent mental illness. Angela has worked in hospital and community settings, including time as a Qualified Mental Health Professional at a medical center. She has also offered education to family members through the National Alliance on Mental Illness.
Those roles gave her experience with complicated cases and with helping families figure out next steps. Her approach is flexible and people-centered. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Attachment-based ideas, existential questions, and client-centered methods.
In sessions she helps clients notice patterns, try new behaviors, and set realistic goals. She combines practical tools with an emphasis on values and meaning. Sessions often include discussion, simple skill practice, and creative ways to express difficult feelings.
The aim is to make progress that fits around parenting, work, and daily routines.
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values while managing difficult thoughts and feelings. ACT can help with anxiety, depression, and problems with focus like ADHD. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors; it is useful for stress, mood concerns, and shifting daily habits that get in the way of functioning. Attachment-Based ideas are used to look at how early relationships shape current patterns in closeness and communication, which can be helpful for relationship and intimacy issues.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and will try methods that fit those needs. Sessions are collaborative, so clients help decide whether to emphasize values, skills practice, or relationship-focused work as therapy progresses.
Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to add flexibility. Video works well for deep conversations and skill demonstrations. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a screen-free option is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit quick check-ins, brief coaching, and people who prefer writing as their main communication. These formats make it easier to fit sessions around work, parenting, or caregiving responsibilities.
