Angela Marshall, LPC

Angela Marshall is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Virginia with 19 years of experience. She focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, grief, depression, and life transitions. Angela meets clients where they are and works alongside them toward concrete goals.

Her style is person-centered and respectful. She avoids stigmatizing labels and aims to create a steady, judgement-free space for people to talk through hard things. Sessions tend to focus on practical steps and clearer thinking rather than jargon.

Angela blends several approaches to fit each person's needs. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns. She draws on acceptance and commitment ideas to help people clarify values and take meaningful action.

She also incorporates emotionally-focused work when relationships or intense feelings are central concerns. Mindfulness practices are used to build grounding skills and reduce reactivity. Motivational interviewing can help when someone is weighing change, such as with substance use.

Angela tailors a treatment plan to each person’s situation and goals. She helps people set small, doable steps and checks progress along the way. If someone is ready to begin, she guides them through the practical next steps to get started.

How her approaches translate to online care

Angela commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take action consistent with their values, which can be useful for coping with life changes and addictions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Angela will work collaboratively to choose or blend methods that fit a person's goals and preferences. She adapts plans over time based on what is helping and what needs adjusting.

Confirm session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing appointments from wherever a person is located. It can also allow shorter check-ins, quieter surroundings, or avoiding video when someone prefers not to be on camera. Licensed professionals help tailor session length and focus to practical needs so therapy fits daily routines.
