About Angelique

Angelique Gettle is a licensed marriage and family therapist with over 25 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and addiction. She also supports concerns around self-esteem, relationships, intimacy, compassion fatigue, and major life changes.

Her approach is warm and interactive. Sessions are respectful and meant to be sensitive to each person's story. Angelique mixes client-centered care with attachment-focused thinking and cognitive tools to help people notice patterns and make different choices.

She draws on emotionally-focused ideas to work through relationship and intimacy struggles. Existential questions about meaning and purpose are addressed in plain language, not jargon. Angelique also blends practical strategies from cognitive behavioral methods to manage symptoms day to day.

Her background includes long clinical experience with trauma, addictions, and attachment-related issues. She has used creative supports such as art and animal-assisted techniques alongside talk therapy when helpful. Angelique describes her style as compassionate and empowering, aiming to listen and help people move toward change.

People who choose to work with her typically start by sharing immediate concerns and goals. From there she and the client map out straightforward steps and skills to try between sessions. She practices in California as an LMFT and works in English.

How attachment and cognitive work translate online

Attachment-based work focuses on how relationships shape feelings and expectations. Online sessions can help people notice their attachment patterns, practice new ways of connecting, and bring those insights into current relationships.

Cognitive behavioral techniques look at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. In online sessions a therapist can teach concrete exercises to reduce anxiety, change unhelpful thinking, and set manageable behavioral goals between meetings.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and personal style. That choice can shift over time as progress or new concerns appear.

Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in can fit a work break, or a phone or audio-only option may be used when bandwidth is limited. Licensed professionals can guide how to adapt exercises and homework for an online setting so therapy remains practical and usable in everyday life.
