About Angela
Angela Hernandez, LCSW, focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, addiction, depression, and relationship or intimacy concerns. She centers care around each person’s goals and values, working in partnership to set clear, achievable steps. She practices in Wisconsin and brings nearly two decades of experience to her work.
Her approach is practical and down-to-earth. Sessions often start with what feels most urgent, like intense anger, low mood, or difficulty communicating.
Background and approach
She uses client-centered methods so people shape their own goals while the therapist offers tools and feedback. Therapy can include short-term skills practice and longer discussions about life patterns. Angela draws from cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and change day-to-day reactions.
She also uses dialectical behavior therapy strategies to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills. Motivational interviewing helps when someone is uncertain about changing behaviors related to addiction or other habits. Her background includes work across many settings and diverse populations, with 19 years of clinical experience.
She has held Wisconsin and Utah LCSW credentials and has supported people facing trauma, mood disorders, and identity-related concerns. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. Practical options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.
Angela works with each person to match the session format and methods to their needs. Starting involves a brief matching questionnaire and scheduling a time that fits the person’s life.

Approaches that fit online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and choices, with the therapist acting as a respectful partner who listens and reflects so people can find their own answers. This approach helps when someone wants to clarify values, make decisions, or set personal goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. In online sessions this often means identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing new behaviors between meetings to reduce anxiety, depression, or anger flare-ups.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, offers concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better communication. These skills are useful for managing intense emotions and can be practiced during short check-ins or longer video sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about problems, goals, and preferences and then suggest methods to try. That plan can change over time based on what is helpful and what feels manageable.
Online therapy lets people use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit therapy into their lives. Video is useful for deeper conversations and skills practice, phone calls work when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or travel.
