About Angela
Angela Knight is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, practicing in California with 29 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and motivation concerns. Angela also supports those dealing with grief, addiction, sleep and eating difficulties, and career or life changes.
She believes clients know their own stories and brings practical tools to help them move forward. Sessions include teaching skills from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. She also uses emotionally-focused and attachment-based ideas when working with feelings and relational patterns.
In practice she focuses on skill building and drawing out strengths. Conversations often include learning specific coping strategies, practicing new ways to communicate, and naming emotions that are hard to identify. Angela mentions mindfulness-based stress reduction as one approach she may use to reduce worry and increase present-moment awareness.
Her work covers a broad range of concerns that often overlap, such as ADHD, caregiver stress, body image, and attachment issues. She also addresses areas like abandonment, adoption and foster care, blended family challenges, and coping after illness or disaster.
People who choose her typically look for clear tools and steady guidance. Angela’s approach mixes practical techniques with attention to emotional experience so clients can try new behaviors and notice different results.
How Angela integrates therapy approaches in online care
Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on naming and working with core emotions and attachment patterns. It is often used when people want to understand recurring emotional responses and relationship dynamics. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relational patterns shape current behaviors and feelings. It can help when trust, closeness, or repeated patterns cause distress.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Angela will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means she may blend skill-based tools with emotion-focused exploration depending on what the client needs.
Confirm the specific online session formats available before booking.
