Angela Ellison , LCSW

Angela Ellison is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Kentucky with five years of clinical experience. As an LCSW she brings training in assessment, psychotherapy, and care coordination to help people navigate periods of distress and transition. She works with common concerns such as stress and anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship and family issues, addictions, sleep and eating concerns, ADHD, and caregiver or aging-related challenges.

Angela favors a strengths-based, collaborative approach that builds on each person’s existing resources and goals. She helps clients explore thoughts, feelings, and patterns while developing practical coping skills tailored to their lives. Her background includes work with individuals and families facing mood disorders, life changes, intimacy and parenting struggles, and chronic illness or disability-related stress.

She offers flexible ways to connect so therapy can fit into busy schedules - sessions can take place by phone, video, live chat, or in-app messaging. Angela aims to create a respectful, goal-focused partnership so clients can move toward greater well-being and clearer next steps for life, relationships, and recovery.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Angela uses several evidence-informed approaches adapted for remote work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and building a collaborative relationship so clients feel understood and can discover their own solutions - this approach helps with general life stress, self-esteem, and relationship concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practicing practical strategies to change them. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and managing mood swings.

Motivational Interviewing supports people who are ready to change behaviors by exploring ambivalence and strengthening personal motivation - it can be helpful for addictions, lifestyle changes, and commitment to treatment plans.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Angela will collaborate with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts methods as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility - sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone appointments, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family, and other responsibilities.
