Angela Mallard, LPC, LMHC

Angela Mallard is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 14 years of experience. She focuses on clear, practical help for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief, parenting concerns, trauma, and addiction. Angela works in a straightforward, collaborative way so clients know what to expect each session.

She has worked in outpatient settings, schools, offices, and provided in-home family therapy. Much of her recent work has involved at-risk youth and their family systems. That experience shaped a practical style that blends problem-solving with attention to emotional safety.

Angela uses client-centered listening to understand a person’s story and strengths. She pairs that with cognitive behavioral techniques to help shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Mindfulness and motivational strategies are added when they fit a person’s goals.

Sessions emphasize small, doable steps toward change. Conversations include developing coping tools, improving communication, and working through past hurts in ways that feel manageable. Angela aims to support and empower people rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions.

She practices in Florida and holds both LPC and LMHC credentials. Sessions are offered in English and available through several online formats, making it possible to schedule around busy days. Getting started begins by completing a short matching questionnaire and choosing a time to meet.

Approaches that translate well to online care

Angela often draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help identify unhelpful thought patterns and test new behaviors. CBT is practical and goal-oriented, which many people find easy to use during phone or video sessions. Client-Centered Therapy is another core part of her work and focuses on listening, empathy, and building on a person’s strengths to guide change. That approach supports a calm, collaborative relationship even when meeting remotely.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. She will work with each person to choose techniques that match their goals, situation, and preferences. That might mean starting with brief solution-focused steps, adding motivational strategies to support change, or using mindfulness exercises to reduce stress. The plan can be adjusted as progress is made.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skill practice, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break, live chat supports quick check-ins, and text messaging is useful for brief updates or prompts between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around busy days and changing schedules.
