About Angelique
Angelique Murguia is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Nevada and holds a LICSW from Massachusetts, with three years in her current licensed practice. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, and related concerns including social anxiety and phobia, helping them find clearer ways to manage difficult feelings. Her experience includes crisis work and supporting people through loss and major life changes.
She uses straightforward talk-based methods alongside practical tools. Sessions often involve looking at thoughts and behaviors, learning small skills to reduce distress, and noticing patterns that cause repeated problems. Mindfulness exercises and focused problem-solving are common parts of her approach.
Angelique also draws on psychodynamic ideas to consider how past relationships shape present feelings. Motivational interviewing techniques appear in conversations about change, especially around habits or addictions. Solution-focused methods help set short-term goals and identify immediate steps forward.
In sessions she aims to help people recognize unhelpful patterns and practice alternative responses. That might mean practicing breathing, trying a behavior experiment, or rehearsing a difficult conversation. She encourages clear steps people can try between meetings.
Her background includes several years working with trauma, grief, and crisis intervention plus experience across a range of mental health conditions. Angelique practices in Nevada and offers services in English. If someone is unsure whether this style fits, she suggests starting with a brief intake to discuss goals and approach.
How her approaches translate to online work
Angelique commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness Therapy in her practice. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or depression. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to lower reactivity and help with stress or panic.She also uses Motivational Interviewing to support people who are weighing change, for example around substance use or difficult habits. That approach centers on listening and drawing out a person’s own reasons for change, rather than forcing a plan. Deciding which methods to use is collaborative; she will work with each person to match techniques to their goals and preferences.
If you plan to use online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online meetings can make it easier to fit therapy around work, school, or caregiving by cutting travel time. They can also allow shorter check-ins when needed, reduce the need to be on camera, or make it simpler to practice skills between sessions. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT exercises, mindfulness practices, and motivational conversations to work over distance, and she will review which approach feels most useful during the first meetings.
