About Angela
Angela Young is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in Kentucky with nine years of professional experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, sleep problems, low self-esteem, and motivation. Angela aims to create a warm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk about hard feelings and begin making changes.
Her approach is straightforward and collaborative. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to help people notice unhelpful thinking and build new habits.
How Angela works
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas are used to clarify values and move toward meaningful goals. Sessions often include practical skills practice and short check-ins between meetings. Angela also draws on client-centered and dialectical behavior therapy methods to keep sessions grounded in empathy while teaching emotion regulation skills.
Clients can expect clear, simple strategies rather than technical language. She has supported people through grief, anger, caregiver stress, chronic illness challenges, and career transitions. Angela also helps with issues like attachment concerns, communication problems, guilt and shame, loneliness, and finding life purpose.
Therapy with her may include coaching elements for behavior change, such as quitting smoking or improving sleep routines. She encourages steady progress, small experiments, and realistic steps toward the life a person values.

How specific approaches work in online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them and to take steps toward what matters most. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and struggling with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments to change mood and behavior. It often helps with sleep, worry, and low motivation. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention practices that reduce reactivity and improve emotional balance, which can support stress, anger, and grief work.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with the client to choose methods based on their goals, daily life, and what feels helpful. Sessions are collaborative - goals and techniques are adjusted as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video lets people practice skills together and read nonverbal cues. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat or text-based messaging can be useful for short check-ins, quick coaching, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent while balancing other responsibilities.
