About Angela
Dr. Angela Roberts is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor - practicing in Virginia with 30 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, relationship and family concerns, anger, self-esteem, career changes, bipolar mood issues, and compassion fatigue.
She works directly with adults who are carrying heavy responsibilities at home or work. Sessions involve talking through current problems, learning practical coping skills, and building routines that reduce everyday overwhelm. She also addresses first responder stress, issues around forgiveness, and feelings of guilt and shame.
Her approach draws on Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, and Narrative Therapy. That means sessions often mix listening and reflection with skill practice and clear, doable exercises to try between meetings.
Dr. Roberts uses a trauma-aware lens when a history of abuse or loss is present. She pays attention to how past events shape current reactions and helps people find manageable ways to lessen their symptoms. Practical strategies for mood disorders and post-traumatic stress are offered alongside exploration of values and goals.
People who come for help with relationships or family stress get concrete tools for communication and self-regulation. She also supports those facing career transitions or burnout, aiming to restore daily functioning and clearer decision making.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches available in online sessions
Dr. Roberts commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them against real life, then practicing new behaviors that reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve present-moment focus.She also uses elements of Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening and reflecting so people feel understood. Together these approaches let her combine practical skills with thoughtful listening. Deciding which mix will help most is a collaborative process; she will review goals and preferences with each person and adjust the plan as needed.

Licensed professionals can tailor pacing and homework to match a person's everyday life, helping skills transfer from session to home.
