About Angela

Angela Harmon brings 13 years of clinical experience and a practical, evidence-informed approach to therapy. She centers her work on cognitive behavioral techniques alongside mindfulness practices, helping clients explore thoughts, behaviors, and the body’s response to stress and trauma.

Background and approach

Angela frames therapy as a collaborative process that honors each person’s inherent worth while addressing issues like anxiety, depression, and the lingering effects of past abuse.

Her practice encompasses a wide range of concerns including relationship and intimacy difficulties, parenting and blended family challenges, mood disorders such as bipolar and postpartum depression, and stress-related conditions like compassion fatigue and seasonal affective disorder. Angela also supports exploration of sexuality, BDSM and kink dynamics, gender dysphoria, non-monogamous relationship structures, and related identity matters.

She integrates concepts from acceptance and commitment therapy and dialectical behavior therapy when appropriate, and attends to how emotional states show up in the body to guide treatment planning. Licensed in Washington as an LPC and LMHC (OR LPC C7000, WA LMHC LH60723632), Angela offers flexible session formats to match different lifestyles.

She aims to work with each client to set clear goals and develop practical skills for coping with life changes and building self-compassion.

Online Approaches That Combine Skills and Mindfulness

Angela uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical strategies for changing behaviors and emotions; CBT is often applied to anxiety, depression, and sleep-related concerns. She also incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which emphasizes identifying personal values, increasing psychological flexibility, and learning ways to accept difficult feelings while committing to meaningful action. When appropriate, elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy may be used to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with clients to clarify goals, try different methods, and adjust the plan based on what fits the person’s needs and preferences rather than assuming a single technique will be best from the start.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit counseling into busy schedules or to continue care when travel or other commitments arise. These formats support ongoing skill practice, timely check-ins, and consistent therapeutic work while accommodating different communication styles and daily routines.
