About Angela
Angela Paul is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a Clinical Social Worker (CSW) practicing in Colorado with three years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, depression, and ADHD. Angela focuses on practical help for people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or who use substances or behaviors to cope.
She has a master’s degree in social work and experience supporting adults from diverse backgrounds, including those in rural and underserved areas. Much of her work centers on alcohol use and behavioral addictions such as gambling, social media, or pornography. She also helps people facing trauma, mood disorders, panic attacks, and stress related to perimenopause and menopause.
Her approach is person-centered and collaborative. Angela uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. She also works from a harm reduction model so people can consider change at their own pace, whether they aim for moderation or abstinence.
In sessions she helps people identify coping strategies, improve communication, and reduce the impact of resentment or explosive reactions. She supports work on attachment concerns, caregiver stress, control issues, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, and loneliness. Angela also assists with finding clearer life purpose and rebuilding self-regard after hard experiences.
Practical skills, short-term strategies, and step-by-step plans are common parts of her work. She helps people practice new responses to anger and stress, break cycles of avoidance, and set realistic goals for recovery and everyday functioning.
How evidence-based approaches translate to online work
Angela commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT can help with anger, anxiety, depression, and breaking cycles of avoidance by practicing new responses and small behavior experiments.She also uses Motivational Interviewing, a conversational method that helps people resolve mixed feelings about change. This approach is useful when someone wants to consider cutting back on substances or changing habits without pressure to commit immediately.
The therapist treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She will work with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and day-to-day life. Together they check whether a technique is helping and adjust the plan as needed.
The practical advantages of online sessions depend on current offerings, which were not specified in the biography. Please confirm the available session formats before booking. In general, remote work can make it easier to fit sessions around work or caregiving, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Therapists and licensed professionals can guide how to use those practical benefits to support progress.
