About Angela

Angela Harmon is an LPC, LMHC who brings 13 years of counseling experience to her work. She centers conversations on what matters to each person and helps people reconnect with their sense of worth.

Background and approach

Angela speaks plainly and listens carefully so people feel understood as they talk through anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship concerns. She draws on mindfulness and cognitive behavioral approaches to help clients notice thoughts and habits that get in the way.

Angela pays attention to how stress and past trauma can affect the body and uses that understanding to shape treatment. The Gottman Method is part of her toolkit for addressing relationship and intimacy-related issues.

Sessions are practical and goal-oriented, with tools people can use between meetings. She also works with issues like parenting strain, ADHD, bipolar mood challenges, sleeping problems, and self-esteem.

Angela supports people navigating complex topics such as gender dysphoria, alternative sexual cultures, polyamory, and blended family dynamics. Her experience includes helping people cope with life changes, caregiver stress, compassion fatigue, and career-related strain.

Angela is comfortable addressing grief, dissociation, domestic violence histories, and sexual concerns in ways that respect each person’s pace. Client work is offered from Washington and conducted in English.

She uses a mix of therapeutic methods and tailors them to each person’s needs, focusing on concrete steps toward feeling more steady and present.

Integrating evidence-based methods for online care

Angela often combines the Gottman Method with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and cognitive behavioral techniques. The Gottman-informed work focuses on improving communication, managing conflict, and rebuilding closeness in relationships. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to values-based action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical tools to change unhelpful patterns.

Choosing the best approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, try an approach, and adjust over time. That process helps clarify what methods feel most useful and what tools to practice between sessions.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people work face-to-face from wherever they are. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or for a focused check-in. Live chat and text messaging provide brief, flexible check-ins and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep momentum between meetings.
