About Angela
Angela Montague is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, practicing in New York with 30 years of professional experience. She works with adults on common problems such as stress, anxiety, depression, and addictions. Angela also supports people facing relationship conflict, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting strain, and anger.
Over three decades she has worked in settings that exposed her to a wide range of life challenges. That background informs how she talks with clients about coping strategies and next steps. She uses straightforward conversation to clarify what is happening and what the person wants to change.
Sessions focus on practical steps people can try between meetings. Angela helps clients name patterns that fuel frustration, rehearse different responses, and build skills for handling tense moments. She also addresses related concerns such as intimacy struggles, self-esteem, career stress, and compassion fatigue.
Angela pays attention to cultural and identity issues and will discuss how prejudice or discrimination affects daily life. She also brings experience with domestic violence, family problems, first responder issues, and infidelity when relevant to a client’s situation.
People who choose her can expect direct conversation, goal-focused planning, and work on real-world skills for managing reactions. Her approach aims to reduce the recurring problems that make everyday life harder and to increase options when anger or stress starts to take over.
How evidence-based approaches guide online sessions
Many clinicians use cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. CBT focuses on practical exercises and small behavior changes that reduce anger and anxiety over time. Trauma-informed methods pay attention to how past harm affects current reactions. This approach helps people understand triggers and develop ways to feel less overwhelmed by memories or reminders. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of therapy. The therapist will work with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals, preferences, and current situation. That collaboration helps shape the plan and the skills practiced between sessions. Confirm which session formats are available before booking, since formats were not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten the time spent traveling, or offer a simpler check-in when a quick update is needed. Ask about options and how they would fit into everyday life before your first appointment.Areas of expertise
