About Angela
Angela DaSilva is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, practicing in New York with 15 years of experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, parenting strains, and anger. Angela uses evidence-based approaches to help clients develop practical coping skills and clearer thinking about difficult situations.
She focuses on straightforward tools rather than jargon. Sessions often include talking through what’s happening now, identifying patterns, and trying new behaviors between meetings. Angela helps people spot how thoughts and actions feed their stress and anger, then practices alternatives that reduce reactivity and regret.
Her style is collaborative and goal-oriented. She helps clients set small, manageable steps and checks progress regularly. This can include short exercises to try between sessions and concrete communication skills for tense interactions at home or work.
Angela has worked across clinical settings over her career, seeing a range of concerns tied to mood, substance use, and caregiving challenges. That background influences a pragmatic approach to everyday problems, with attention to what fits into a person’s life.
Sessions are aimed at building skills people can use right away. People often come wanting less anger, fewer arguments, or clearer boundaries. Angela supports that work by breaking issues into manageable pieces and practicing responses that reduce escalation.
How her approaches translate to online work
Angela uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and real-life practice. Cognitive-behavioral approaches look at how thoughts affect feelings and actions and teach practical ways to shift unhelpful thinking and reactions. Behavioral strategies involve small, testable changes in actions and routines to reduce stress and lower the chance of angry outbursts.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. She will work with clients to choose methods that match their goals and preferences and will adjust the plan based on what helps most. That collaborative selection helps make sessions more useful from the start.
