About Angela

Angela Kazmierczak is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker - Recredentialed (LCSW-R) practicing in New York with 21 years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, parenting, career questions, grief, trauma and related mood issues. Angela also helps people facing changes like midlife shifts and young adult transitions.

Her style is straightforward and person-focused. She listens for what matters most and helps people put small, practical steps into place. Sessions often focus on clarifying goals, noticing patterns, and trying out different ways of coping and communicating.

Angela uses a mix of approaches depending on the concern. She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to follow the client's perspective, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills for emotion regulation. Mindfulness and Motivational Interviewing are also part of her toolbox for building awareness and sustaining change.

She supports people dealing with relationship strains such as infidelity or commitment worries, family problems, caregiver stress, and parenting pressures. Angela also works with issues tied to abandonment, adoption and foster care, and the complex feelings around forgiveness, guilt, and shame.

People seeking help with ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, anger, impulsivity, intimacy-related struggles, or finding life purpose can work with her to set clear, achievable steps and track progress over time.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening to the client's perspective and following their agenda. Online sessions using this approach tend to prioritize personal goals, reflection, and collaborative problem-solving. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses practical exercises to test new ways of thinking and behaving; it can be delivered as structured session work with homework and skills practice. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills that people can learn and practice between sessions to manage intense feelings and impulsive reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Angela will discuss different methods with each person and pick strategies based on symptoms, goals, and what feels workable in day-to-day life. That collaborative process helps choose whether to emphasize skills training, cognitive restructuring, or paced reflection.

Specific session formats are not listed here, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around classes, shifts, commuting, or caregiving by removing travel time and offering more flexible scheduling. Some formats also let people choose shorter check-ins or sessions without video when that better fits their daily routine.
