Angela Marshall, LPC

Angela Marshall is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia with 19 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, grief, substance concerns, relationship and family stress, ADHD, and life transitions. Angela also addresses issues such as codependency, body image, caregiver stress, and panic attacks.

Her style is straightforward and person-centered. She listens first and builds goals with each person rather than applying one fixed method. Sessions focus on what is getting in the way now and on practical steps people can try between meetings.

Angela draws on cognitive-behavioral ideas to help people notice patterns of thought and behavior that cause distress. She uses acceptance and mindfulness tools to reduce avoidance and increase focus on chosen values. Emotionally-Focused Therapy techniques are used when relationship patterns and attachment concerns are central.

Therapy sessions include short-term skills work and longer conversations about meaning, choice, and direction. Angela uses motivational interviewing strategies to support readiness for change and to address substance-related difficulties without judgment. She does not rely on labels; the work centers on the problems people bring and the goals they set.

People who tend to put others first or who feel stuck by another person’s moods or needs often find concrete boundary and communication work useful. Angela helps people practice new ways of saying no, manage overwhelm, and clarify what matters next in their life.
