About Angela
Angela Franklin is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Michigan with ten years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people reduce stress, manage anxiety and depression, and work through addictions and trauma. Her approach is grounded in listening, respect, and practical problem solving.
Angela uses clear explanations to help clients understand their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. She helps people see how patterns affect daily life and relationships. Sessions focus on small, manageable steps and real coping skills that can be practiced between meetings.
Background and approach
Her clinical toolkit includes Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. Angela adapts these approaches to fit each person’s needs rather than using a single method for everyone. She aims to build a collaborative working plan with measurable, reachable goals.
Clients may bring concerns such as grief, parenting strain, anger, self-esteem issues, career stress, bipolar mood challenges, or compassion fatigue. Angela works to identify which problems most affect day-to-day functioning and then prioritizes steps that bring relief and increased coping ability. She frames therapy as a partnership where the client’s priorities guide the process.
Angela emphasizes practical strategies, steady progress, and building resilience so people can handle future stressors more confidently.
How therapeutic approaches work online
Angela commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in online sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy breaks down thinking and behavior patterns and teaches practical exercises to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the client's perspective so goals and solutions come from the person themselves.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Angela will talk with each person about their needs and goals and then choose or combine methods that fit. That collaboration helps tailor sessions to what actually helps the person make changes.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging let people send quick updates, work through exercises between meetings, or use therapy without being on camera. These options increase flexibility and make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.
