About Angelo

Angelo Fouras is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, practicing in New Jersey with 16 years of direct practice experience. He works with adults on problems such as stress, anxiety, depression, anger, relationship and intimacy concerns, addictions, parenting strain, and career changes. Sessions are framed as a collaborative effort focused on short- and long-term goals.

He uses a mix of approaches including client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, emotionally-focused ideas, and mindfulness practices. In sessions he aims to be honest and attentive, moving at a pace the person is comfortable with. He draws on practical methods that target unhelpful thinking, emotional regulation, and clearer communication.

Angelo's background includes a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a Master of Social Work from Rutgers University. His work history spans schools, community programs, outpatient clinics, group homes, home visits, and telehealth. That variety has shaped how he adapts strategies to everyday life challenges.

People who come to him for anger or relationship stress can expect hands-on tools for managing reactions and rebuilding interactions. He also works with concerns such as ADHD, trauma and abuse, bipolar mood issues, and caregiving stress, applying techniques to reduce reactivity and improve coping.

Sessions emphasize practical change over theory. Clients set goals and track progress through concrete skills work, brief behavioral experiments, and mindfulness practices that can be used between meetings. Angelo aims to be a steady, consistent presence while people work through the issues they bring.

How sessions work

How Angelo uses practical approaches in online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's own goals and experience, with the therapist listening, reflecting, and helping the person make choices that fit their life. It helps when someone wants a supportive, nondirective space to sort out feelings and decisions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, targets the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It provides concrete exercises and behavioral experiments to reduce reactive anger, ease anxiety, and change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, adds skills for emotional regulation and distress tolerance, useful when strong feelings keep repeating.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and day-to-day reality. That means trying techniques, tracking what helps, and adjusting over time so sessions stay relevant.

Confirm current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow for brief check-ins when needed. They also make regular skills practice and follow-up more practical for many people, while the therapist and client shape how sessions are scheduled and structured to match life demands.
