Angela Carroll, LCSW

Angela Carroll is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who brings three years of clinical experience to her practice in Montana. She offers steady support for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma, and relationship difficulties. Her manner is warm and interactive, and she aims to help clients take practical steps forward.

She draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, client-centered methods, and dialectical behavior therapy to shape treatment. Sessions focus on clear skills and real-life tools that people can try between meetings. Simple homework like worksheets, short readings, creative activities, or apps is offered as a way to build new habits.

Her background includes work with people managing parenting challenges, domestic violence, substance use issues, grief related to cancer and caregiving strain, and problems tied to money or career stress. She also helps with family of origin concerns, blended family issues, infidelity, and recovery from trauma or abuse. Treatment plans are adjusted to match each person's situation and goals.

Angela values empathy, respect, and strength-based practice. She listens for a person’s priorities and helps them set small, achievable steps. The tone in sessions is validating and practical, with attention to what will fit into everyday life.

Therapy is offered in English and is provided through multiple online formats. People who want to begin can follow the site's Start Therapy process to match and schedule a first session.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Angela often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thought patterns and practice different reactions in everyday situations. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress because it breaks problems into manageable steps and skills.

She also uses client-centered methods that prioritize the person's goals and perspectives, offering a respectful, nonjudgmental space for people to speak and be heard. Dialectical behavior therapy techniques may be introduced to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal skills when strong emotions or relationship strain are present.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences, and together they adapt methods to fit what the person finds most helpful. That may mean combining skills from different approaches or focusing on practical homework that fits daily life.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for in-depth conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging lets people send updates or reflections between sessions. These options help therapy fit around work, caregiving, or travel.
