About Angie

Angie Hanson is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who focuses on practical help for people feeling overwhelmed by anger, stress, or major life changes. She writes simply and listens closely to understand what is happening now. If you want straightforward strategies and a calm presence, she aims to help you find clearer ways to respond to hard moments.

She has six years as a counselor and has worked in mental health since 2009.

Background and approach

Angie holds a master’s degree in psychology and a master’s in counseling, with emphasis on trauma, grief, and crisis counseling. That background shaped how she thinks about trauma, depression, anxiety, panic, and agoraphobia. In sessions she mixes cognitive behavioral techniques with mindfulness and client-centered work.

That means she helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, try small behavior changes, and practice present-moment skills. She also pays attention to attachment patterns when relationships are part of the struggle. Angie is a veteran and is comfortable working with other veterans.

She describes her style as calm and empathic, with the ability to be firm when needed without pushing. Her aim is to match practical tools to each person’s situation. People come to her for anger, grief, addiction, sleep problems, parenting stress, ADHD, bipolar concerns, relationship and intimacy issues, and many other challenges.

Angie sees clients in Idaho and offers sessions in English.

Approaches Angie lists

Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist names and does not check training records.

Therapy approaches you can use online

Angie commonly blends cognitive behavioral therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help with anger, anxiety, and mood concerns. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying thought patterns and testing small behavior changes to reduce distress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy teaches skills to notice painful thoughts and commit to actions that match personal values, which can help people who feel stuck.

She also uses client-centered methods, which means the therapist follows the person’s lead, listens without judgment, and tailors sessions to what matters most. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Angie will work with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences rather than prescribing a single path.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and ongoing text-based messaging. Video lets you work face-to-face and practice skills in real time, while phone calls can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a camera is not preferred. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to fit shorter check-ins into a busy day and to share notes between sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to schedule around work, caregiving, and everyday life.
