About Angelamaria

Angelamaria Riedi is a clinical social worker - Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with six years of practice. She works with adults on problems including anger, depression, anxiety, addiction, grief, and stress. She also supports people dealing with relationship or intimacy concerns and career or parenting strain.

She has helped people across the lifespan, from adolescents to seniors, and has particular experience with aging and geriatric issues. That background informs how she talks about life transitions and caregiver stress. She also brings experience supporting people who identify as LGBTQ+ and those coping with substance use and trauma.

Her way of working is straightforward. She listens, helps people name strengths, and looks for practical next steps. Sessions focus on identifying coping tools, improving communication, and reducing the patterns that feed anger and resentment.

Angelamaria uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and a strengths-based orientation. She helps clients recognize where they already have resources and then builds on those skills to manage strong emotions and life changes. She uses clear language and collaborative planning rather than jargon.

People who choose her can expect a clinician who draws on experience with crises, trauma, and long-term stressors. Her practice reflects both short-term problem solving and work toward longer-term goals like rebuilding trust, managing mood swings, and improving relationships. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session.

Approaches used and how online sessions fit

She works from evidence-based techniques and a strengths-based orientation. Strengths-based work focuses on what a person already does well and builds on those capabilities to manage anger, stress, and life transitions. It helps people notice practical resources they can use in heated moments.

She also uses trauma-informed approaches to address how past events affect current reactions. This involves pacing discussions about difficult experiences, teaching grounding and coping strategies, and helping clients reduce reactivity that can lead to anger or withdrawal.

Finding the right way to work is a collaborative process. The therapist will review goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped before. Together the client and clinician choose techniques and adjust them as needed rather than following a fixed plan.

The biography does not state specific online formats. Please confirm available session formats before booking. In general, online work can make scheduling easier and fit into a busy day. It can allow shorter check-ins, avoid travel time, and let someone speak with a therapist from wherever they are. These practical benefits can make regular work on anger and coping easier to maintain alongside daily responsibilities.
