About Angie

Angie Hanson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with six years of counseling experience and a longer history in mental health work stretching back to 2009. She lists stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, depression, addictions, relationship and family concerns, and issues such as sleeping, parenting, and self-esteem among her focus areas. Angie also notes work with bipolar disorder, ADHD, and coping with life changes.

She holds a master’s degree in psychology and a master’s degree in counseling. Her graduate training emphasized trauma, grief, and crisis counseling. Before becoming a counselor she worked on behavior modification with children, adults, and families, and that background still shapes how she plans practical steps in sessions.

Angie uses cognitive behavioral approaches alongside mindfulness-influenced work. She also practices client-centered and attachment-informed ways of meeting someone, and incorporates emotionally focused ideas when relationships are causing distress. Her description of technique leans toward clear, concrete strategies rather than abstract theory.

She mentions comfort working with veterans and draws on lived experience as a veteran herself. Angie describes a calm manner and a balance of gentle listening with straightforward coaching when needed. Clients can expect conversational sessions that aim to identify patterns and try manageable changes.

Angie is based in Idaho and conducts sessions in English. The site notes that international clients are not accepted; confirm current session options before booking and follow the site steps to begin.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Angie often draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and improve daily functioning. CBT is useful for worries, panic, and many forms of anxiety including social concerns.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas that encourage noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choosing actions that match personal values. That approach can help with avoidance, phobias, and coping with difficult emotions. Client-centered techniques mean conversations are driven by the person's concerns, with the therapist offering reflection and practical options rather than directives.

Finding the right approach is part of early sessions. Angie will work collaboratively to see which methods fit a client's goals and preferences and adjust as progress is made. The process is conversational and goal-focused, with room to try different tools and check what helps.

The therapist's profile does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Discuss format preferences during the intake so sessions can be arranged to match daily life and practical needs.
