About Angela

Angela Hicks is a licensed clinical social worker practicing in Texas with seven years of experience. She holds a Master of Social Work and has provided care in both inpatient and outpatient settings. Angela focuses on helping adults who want clearer coping tools and steadier emotional footing.

Her work is practical and tailored to the person in front of her. Sessions focus on what feels most pressing, whether that is stress, anxiety, depression, or rebuilding self-esteem.

02

How Angela works

She uses conversational, goal-oriented methods so people leave with specific skills to try between sessions. Angela has supported people dealing with relationship strain, grief and loss, anger, panic, and persistent mood concerns. She also addresses issues such as abandonment, codependency, control struggles, and feelings of isolation.

When needed she helps people understand patterns behind shame, guilt, and self-sabotage. Her approach blends client-centered listening with methods from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. Mindfulness and narrative techniques are added when they suit a person’s goals and style.

Treatment plans are adjusted as progress unfolds and new priorities emerge. Sessions are offered in English and delivered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time that fits the person’s calendar.

Online support options

Therapeutic approaches you can use online

Client-centered therapy starts with the therapist listening closely and following what matters most to the person. It helps people feel heard and directs sessions toward goals they choose. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and replacing them with more helpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and panic. Dialectical behavior therapy, DBT, teaches skills for managing intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. It can be useful when emotions feel overwhelming or when relationships repeatedly break down.

Choosing the right approach is something Angela treats as a team effort. She will talk with the person about their concerns and preferences, try techniques in session, and adjust the plan as progress is made. The aim is to find methods that fit the person’s life and goals rather than forcing a single model.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video allows face-to-face conversations when that helps build connection. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break or commute. Live chat and messaging are useful for short check-ins, skill reminders, or when writing thoughts feels easier than speaking. These options make it possible to work on stress, mood, relationships, and coping skills from different locations and schedules.
