About Angelle

Angelle Escousse is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing since 1994 in Louisiana. She has 30 years of experience and lists mood disorders, trauma, relational issues, and parenting among her primary concerns.

She has worked with adults, children, and families across different settings. That breadth of experience has shaped how she approaches common problems such as anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, and stress. Parenting and family dynamics are frequent topics in her work.

Her style is flexible. She adapts techniques to what each person brings to a session. Treatment may include talking through patterns, trying practical skills, and setting small, achievable goals.

Angelle uses several established approaches to guide sessions. Client-Centered Therapy helps center the person's own goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on changing unhelpful thoughts and actions. Emotionally-Focused Therapy can be used for relationship and attachment concerns.

She also draws on mindfulness and motivational interviewing when those approaches fit a client's situation. That mix allows her to shift between problem-solving, skills training, and deeper emotional work. People who want straightforward guidance and honest feedback often find this approach clear and practical.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's own goals and perspectives. In practice this means the therapist listens closely and helps the person clarify what they want to change and why. It suits people who want a collaborative, respectful process.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Sessions often include practical exercises, short homework tasks, and strategies to reduce anxiety or depressive patterns. CBT is useful for stress, anxiety, sleep issues, and mood problems.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at emotional patterns and attachment concerns. It can help people who struggle with recurring relationship or intimacy-related problems by identifying and shifting emotional responses.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. That lets them decide together whether to emphasize skills, emotional processing, or both.

Confirm the specific online session formats before booking, since the profile does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Those practical benefits can help people maintain continuity of care while managing household and work demands.
