About Angela
Angela Dawn Foretich is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida who combines practical talk therapy with compassion. She has worked in counseling since 2007 and brings 17 years of experience to sessions. Many people come to her when life feels overwhelming and they need a steady, listening presence.
She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and phobias. She also supports those processing trauma, grief, and major life changes. Caregivers and people coping with serious illness or chronic pain are included in her work with clients.
Her approach focuses on the person in front of her. She encourages clients to notice strengths they already have and to build new coping skills. Sessions emphasize practical steps people can try between meetings and reflection on what works for them.
Angela uses a mix of approaches to fit individual needs, including acceptance-oriented work, cognitive behavioral techniques, attachment-informed perspectives, and skills drawn from dialectical behavior therapy. She aims to create a respectful, sensitive space where clients feel heard and understood.
People describe her as supportive and steady when facing relationship strain, family concerns, communication problems, or codependency patterns. She welcomes conversations about goals and how therapy can fit into everyday life, helping clients find manageable ways to move forward.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without getting stuck in them and then choose actions that match their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and testing new ways of thinking and acting. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people try new ways of connecting and relating.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, and will adapt methods as needed. Clients and the therapist decide together which strategies to try and how to track progress.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people keep continuity of care if they move or travel internationally. Ask about session length and mode when scheduling so sessions match everyday needs and routines.
