About Angela

Angela Marasco, LMHC, brings eight years of clinical experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting challenges, ADHD, and related issues such as attachment wounds, abandonment, and codependency.

Background and approach

She emphasizes personalized care that centers the client's experiences and strengths while addressing practical problems like panic attacks, communication breakdowns, caregiver stress, and grief. Her style combines collaborative, strength-based work with evidence-informed methods.

Sessions focus on building coping skills, increasing self-awareness, and processing difficult emotions so clients can move toward greater stability and self-love. Angela integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with acceptance-oriented and attachment-focused strategies when useful, and she draws on elements of dialectical behavior and client-centered approaches to support emotional regulation and healthier relationships.

Based in New York and licensed as an LMHC (NY LMHC 011899), Angela aims to create a warm, nonjudgmental setting where people feel welcomed to explore life purpose, trauma recovery, intimacy issues, and other concerns. Her approach is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs, with an emphasis on practical tools and sustained healing.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Treatment Options

Angela commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, panic, and stress-related problems. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to support values-driven action and present-moment acceptance when processing difficult emotions and trauma-related responses. Attachment-Based Therapy is incorporated to explore relationship patterns, abandonment concerns, and ways early attachment experiences influence current intimacy and family dynamics.

Deciding which approach to emphasize is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to clarify goals, preferences, and the problems most important to address, then adapt techniques from these modalities to suit the person's needs and pace.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for clients balancing work, caregiving, or mobility limitations. These formats make it easier to schedule consistent sessions, try different communication styles, and access evidence-informed strategies from a licensed professional without needing to travel to an office.
