About Angela
Angela Harmon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Washington with 13 years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and related concerns, and supports people dealing with guilt and shame. Angela uses clear, practical methods to help people untangle difficult feelings and day-to-day struggles.
She describes her approach as drawing on mindfulness and cognitive behavioral ideas together. That means sessions often include noticing thoughts and body reactions, testing unhelpful beliefs, and learning small skills to change how people respond. Angela also attends to how depression, stress, anxiety, and trauma show up in the body, and she talks through ways to reduce those physical reactions.
People bring many kinds of concerns to her work. She lists relationship and intimacy issues, parenting and blended family strain, LGBT and gender dysphoria questions, ADHD and impulsivity, caregiver stress, and aspects of sexuality such as kink and polyamory. She also addresses sleep problems, self-esteem, loneliness, and mood conditions like bipolar and postpartum depression.
Sessions tend to be straightforward and skills-focused. Angela uses elements from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, the Gottman Method, and mindfulness-based practices. Conversations commonly include simple exercises to notice patterns and try different responses between sessions.
Her background is practical clinical work over more than a decade in Washington. Sessions are conducted in English. Before booking, readers should confirm current session options and formats with the practice.
Online work with ACT, CBT and DBT skill practice
Angela uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values even when guilt or shame shows up. ACT often involves noticing thoughts without getting hooked by them and choosing actions that match personal goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify and test thoughts that keep people stuck, and to practice different behaviors that lead to clearer results. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and patterns that feed shame. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are drawn on for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. These skills offer concrete tools to manage overwhelming feelings and improve day-to-day functioning. Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and together they will try methods that fit the person’s needs. Adjustments are made over time based on what helps most. The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Therapists who offer video or phone sessions often find those formats help people keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, and daily responsibilities.Areas of expertise
