About Angela
Angela Howes is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with five years of clinical experience. She practices in Ohio and works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, relationship and family concerns, grief, intimacy-related issues, parenting stress, anger, career pressures, and life changes.
Her approach is straightforward and person-centered. Angela uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen and reflect what matters to each person. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thinking patterns that fuel anger and anxiety, and on Mindfulness Therapy to help people notice reactions in the moment without judgment.
Sessions tend to be practical and focused. Angela uses Motivational Interviewing when someone wants help finding the drive to change habits. She applies Solution-Focused techniques to set small, achievable steps and track progress. Conversations are adjusted to the individual, with clear goals and follow-up.
She has worked across common concerns like compassion fatigue, forgiveness, isolation and loneliness, life purpose, mood disorders, and building self-love. Angela emphasizes plain language and usable tools you can try between sessions. She encourages people who are worried about snapping at others, holding resentments, or struggling with someone else's anger to reach out.
To get started clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session. Angela frames early meetings as a chance to set priorities and choose approaches that fit each person’s situation.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Angela commonly blends Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy. Client-Centered Therapy means the therapist listens closely and adjusts conversations to what matters to the client. CBT focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep anger and anxiety active and replacing them with clearer responses. Mindfulness Therapy teaches short practices to notice physical and emotional reactions as they arise, which can reduce impulsive responses.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the early work. Angela collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and everyday life. She frames therapy as a team effort to try specific tools and then adjust based on what helps.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking.

The therapist will review practical arrangements and recommend formats that match your needs and daily routine.
