About Angela

Dr. Angela Reeves is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 28 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and issues like self-esteem, career concerns, addictions, and relationship strain. She also lists guilt and shame among her focus areas and accepts international clients.

She spent five years in a private mental health clinic and more than 20 years as a college counselor. That work included helping people with motivation, confidence, PTSD, and life transitions. She is credentialed to provide supervision for LLPCs pursuing full licensure.

Her style is interactive and client-centered. She listens, talks through practical steps, and involves people in planning their own goals. Sessions often focus on building skills people can use between meetings to manage feelings and daily demands.

Dr. Reeves uses a mix of approaches rather than a single method. She draws on Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy to guide conversations. The approaches are applied to the concerns people bring, such as grief, parenting strain, or midlife shifts.

People who work with her can expect collaborative goal-setting and regular checks on progress. Her background in career counseling and higher education informs how she talks about work stress and life-stage changes. She avoids diagnostic labels that can feel stigmatizing and focuses on practical steps forward.

How her main approaches work for online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and making the person the author of their own change. It helps when someone needs a respectful, nonjudgmental space to talk through guilt, shame, or life decisions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses straightforward exercises to test unhelpful beliefs and try new behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and self-critical thinking.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing intense emotions and improving moment-to-moment coping. It can be helpful for people who get overwhelmed by shame or who struggle with impulsive responses.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their goals and preferences, adjusting plans as progress is reviewed.

The original biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online meetings can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel. Many people use remote sessions to maintain continuity during life changes, and the therapist will discuss practical arrangements when scheduling.
