Angelique Fontaine, MD, LCSW-C

Angelique Fontaine is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in Maryland. She combines practical therapy methods with a direct, compassionate style to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and other pressing concerns.

Angelique uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also draws on EMDR for clients coping with trauma and abuse. These approaches are used alongside talk-based methods to address issues like grief, addiction, eating concerns, and low self-esteem.

Clients can expect brief, focused sessions that aim to set clear goals and small, doable steps. Conversations tend to be straightforward and paced to what each person needs. Angelique also includes work on relationship and intimacy-related struggles, attachment and abandonment concerns, and women's issues when relevant.

She brings four years of clinical experience and holds an MD as well as a Licensed Certified Social Worker credential, LCSW-C. Her background includes supporting people through post-traumatic stress, domestic violence, bipolar symptoms, and coping with life changes.

Sessions are offered in English and available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. The focus is on practical tools and steady progress so people can better manage daily demands and feel more in control.

How evidence-based approaches work online

CBT focuses on identifying thoughts and behavior patterns that keep problems going and on practicing new skills. Online CBT sessions typically include setting clear goals, assigning brief practice tasks between sessions, and using conversations to test new ways of thinking and behaving.

EMDR is a trauma-focused method that helps people process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity. In remote sessions EMDR can involve guided eye movements or alternate stimulation paired with talk work to help reprocess past events and lessen their hold on day-to-day life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Angelique will talk with clients about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then suggest a path forward. That planning is collaborative and can shift as needs change.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect: video calls for a face-to-face feel, phone sessions when video is not ideal, live chat for shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging for ongoing support between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives, manage bandwidth and camera needs, and maintain regular contact in ways that suit their routines.
