Angela Kennedy, LPC

Angela Kennedy is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Virginia. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and relationship concerns. Her approach is respectful and compassionate, and she aims to meet each person where they are in their life.

She uses a mix of practical methods to guide conversations and problem solving. Angela draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice what matters most. She also uses client-centered and attachment-based ideas to build a trusting working relationship.

Sessions focus on small, doable steps that fit everyday life. Angela helps people develop coping skills for upsetting thoughts, work through communication problems, and rebuild confidence after setbacks. She addresses issues such as guilt, shame, loneliness, and life purpose in straightforward language.

Her work includes attention to concerns that affect people with a military background, multicultural questions, and intellectual disability needs, always tailoring conversations to the individual. She combines techniques from Dialectical Behavior Therapy when emotion regulation or intense stress is present.

Angela asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire to begin. From there she and the client plan sessions around goals and availability, with a focus on what will help in day-to-day life.

How her approaches guide online work

Angela combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in ways that aim to be practical and relatable. CBT focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety and low mood. ACT helps people notice their values and take small actions toward what matters, even when uncomfortable feelings are present.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. She will work collaboratively to choose which methods fit a person’s goals and daily life. Sessions adapt as progress is made, with regular check-ins about what feels useful and what should change.

Session formats are not listed here, so confirm the current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use video, phone, or other supported formats when those options are available, helping therapy slot into work breaks or caregiving routines more easily.
