About Angelo

Angelo Fouras is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New Jersey with 16 years of clinical experience. He focuses on concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, parenting strain, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.

He frames therapy as a collaborative process. Sessions use a mix of approaches selected to match a person’s needs. Angelo aims to be straightforward and attentive, and to move at a pace the client can manage.

His training includes a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a Master of Social Work from Rutgers University. Over his career he has worked in schools, community programs, outpatient clinics, group homes, and in-home settings. That variety informs how he adapts work to different life situations.

In practice he draws on client-centered methods alongside cognitive-behavioral techniques and mindfulness tools. He also uses elements of dialectical behavior work and emotionally-focused ideas when they fit a person's goals. Sessions typically mix talking, practical problem solving, and skill-building exercises.

People who contact him often want help with relationship strain, parenting stress, managing mood or anxiety, coping after trauma, or adjusting to major life changes. Angelo helps people clarify goals, practice new ways of reacting, and build routines that support daily functioning.

He offers services from New Jersey and works in English. Prospective clients should confirm session formats and scheduling details before booking a first appointment.

How sessions work

How Angelo’s approaches translate to online work

Client-centered work focuses on listening and following what matters most to the client. It supports people who need a steady, respectful listener and want to set their own goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers clear exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and everyday stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides skills for managing strong emotions and improving how a person copes under pressure, which can help with anger, distress, and relationship reactivity.

Deciding which approach to use is part of the early sessions. The therapist will work together with the client to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and what is happening in their life. That choice can change as work progresses and needs shift.

The profile does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around school or work, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Some approaches lend themselves to homework and worksheets that transfer well to remote sessions, while others focus on in-the-moment skills practice that also works online. Talk with the therapist about what will fit your routine and technical setup.
