About Angelina
Angelina Monell is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with 13 years of experience working in New York. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, grief, and coping with life changes. She also addresses social anxiety and phobia among other focused issues listed in her practice.
Her approach centers on listening and building practical strategies for everyday life. She uses client-centered methods to understand what matters to each person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques are applied to identify unhelpful thoughts and try out small behavior changes. Mindfulness practices are introduced when they fit, to help manage tense moments and improve focus.
Angelina also draws on motivational interviewing to support clearer decision making and to strengthen motivation for change. Psychodynamic ideas can help uncover repeated patterns from past relationships that affect current ones. Sessions aim to blend short-term problem-solving with deeper reflection, depending on a person’s goals.
She has experience working with people facing life transitions related to aging, blended families, divorce and separation, parenting changes, military-related concerns, pregnancy and childbirth, seasonal mood shifts, workplace stress, and questions about life purpose. Her work includes helping people manage jealousy, commitment worries, and family problems.
Clients should expect a collaborative process that begins with practical steps and adjusts over time. For international clients and English speakers she offers services consistent with her licensure; confirm session options and formats before booking.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. In online sessions this means the therapist will follow the client’s concerns and pace, using questions and reflections to clarify goals and priorities.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. Online work can include practicing small changes between sessions, using straightforward exercises to test new ways of thinking and behaving that relate to social anxiety or workplace stress.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to manage strong feelings in the moment. These practices can be led in a session and then practiced during daily routines to reduce distress during social situations.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and adjust methods based on goals, preferences, and what seems to help in early sessions. That collaboration helps shape a plan that is practical and realistic for the client.
