About Angelina
Angelina Monell is a licensed mental health counselor who focuses on helping people through stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, and life changes. She practices in New York and has thirteen years of clinical experience as an LMHC and LCPC. Her style is approachable and straightforward, aimed at making therapy useful from the first session.
Clients come with a range of concerns, including family problems, workplace stress, social anxiety, and questions about life purpose.
Background and approach
She also supports people facing aging and geriatric issues, blended family challenges, pregnancy and childbirth transitions, and the emotional effects of military service. Conversations center on immediate concerns and practical next steps. Her approach draws on client-centered work, cognitive behavioral strategies, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and psychodynamic ideas.
Sessions often mix short-term tools for coping with longer-term reflection about patterns and relationships. Angelina helps people build small, doable habits that reduce distress and improve daily functioning. She offers flexible session formats to match different needs, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.
Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and cost varies with location and therapist availability. International clients may be supported in English. For a first step, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on availability.
Angelina aims to create a collaborative space where goals are clear and progress is practical.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's experience. In this approach the therapist follows the client's lead, helps clarify goals, and offers support that feels personally relevant. It can help with relationship strain, grief, and figuring out life direction.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors shape feelings. Sessions teach practical skills for managing anxiety, mood, and workplace or social difficulties through experiments and short exercises. Mindfulness Therapy trains awareness of the present moment to reduce reactivity and ease stress, which fits well with practices people can use between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Angelina will talk with clients about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide whether to emphasize skill-building, reflective exploration, or a mix of both so therapy suits the person's needs.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to match varied schedules. Video is useful for interactive work and when visual cues help the conversation. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat or messaging supports brief check-ins, written reflection, and flexible communication between sessions.
