Angelique Murguia , LCSW, LICSW

Angelique Murguia is a licensed social worker based in Nevada with three years of clinical experience supporting people through trauma, grief, and life transitions. She draws on work with diverse populations and has helped individuals facing challenges from adjustment disorders to severe conditions such as chronic paranoid schizophrenia. Angelique focuses much of her practice on trauma response, grief and loss, and crisis intervention while also addressing a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, relationship and family issues, substance use, and sleep or eating difficulties.

Her approach blends several therapeutic styles to meet each person where they are. She uses talk-based psychodynamic methods alongside cognitive behavioral techniques, solution-focused strategies, task-centered work, mindfulness practices, and trauma-informed interventions. This mix allows her to tailor sessions toward symptom relief, deeper self-understanding, practical coping tools, or a combination of these goals.

Angelique guides clients toward greater self-respect, self-love, and acceptance while helping them build concrete skills to manage emotions and daily challenges. She aims to create an open, supportive environment in which people can explore feelings, process painful experiences, and move toward meaningful change or acceptance on their own terms. Angelique holds LCSW and LICSW credentials - LCSW denotes Licensed Clinical Social Worker and LICSW denotes Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker - reflecting her clinical training and licensure.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Angelique commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness therapy as part of her online work. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, helps people identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms such as anxiety or depression and to build practical coping skills. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-focused awareness and simple attention practices that can reduce reactivity, improve emotional regulation, and support recovery from stress and trauma.

She also incorporates motivational interviewing techniques when clients are exploring change. Motivational interviewing is a collaborative, nonjudgmental way of helping people clarify their goals and strengthen their own motivation to make lasting changes. Across approaches Angelique works together with each person to find the best fit based on their needs, goals, and preferences - the choice of methods is a shared decision rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription.

Online sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for busy schedules and for those who prefer remote access. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, attend sessions from home or work, and try different formats to see what feels most helpful, while working with licensed professionals and therapists who tailor support to each client.
