More about me

Licensing: LMHC Years in Practice: 8 State: New York

I am a licensed mental health counselor currently practicing in upstate New York. I have been working for the past nine years assisting individuals, couples, and families who have a wide range of challenges including: schizophrenia, bipolar, depression, anxiety, trauma, marriage, parenting, grief, addiction, LGBTQ+, as well as others. My goal is to provide a nonjudgmental space for individuals to be able to share their thoughts and feelings about what brought them to counseling and work on whatever specific goals they may have. My own life experiences dealing with grief and loss, marriage and divorce, parenting , anxiety, depression, as well as family members with mental health and addiction issues, have enabled me to have a deeper understanding of individuals who are dealing with some of these challenges . I truly love being a counselor, and look forward to working with you on any challenges you may be facing in your life.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Overall

Angela has been great to work with. I feel like she goes above and beyond other therapists I have worked with in the past. She sends me worksheets, does chat check ins and weekly quotes. I've enjoyed working with her.

Angela has been great to work with, has a flexible schedule & a calming demeanor. She offers valuable insights & shares helpful feedback.

Angela has persistently surprised me with her awesomeness, flexibility and support even when I know I am in unproductive patterns and expect to be abandon emotionally, it’s been a really healing attachment experience.

Angela has been a pleasure to work with. I look forward to our sessions. She has given me different ways of looking at things and different ways to grow.

This has just been a really tense time for me and I need a sounding board for a few issues I’m facing. She’s responsive good on follow through and thorough. She also understands that I need strategic advice.

Angela is a great listener, responsive, knowledgeable, and offers great coaching when appropriate. She's flexible with scheduling which makes it easy to maintain my weekly session and offers weekly thought-provoking quotes to spark discussion. Even if I feel like I don't need a session, I leave the session glad that we spoke. I couldn't have asked for more from a therapist!

Angela Williams is an exceptional therapist and human being. She is unusually perceptive and attentive and has tremendous insight into the many issues facing me and my family. I trust her judgment completely, and I also appreciate her willingness to draw on her own experiences to help better illuminate mine. She has also recommended books that have changed my life and that of my husband. I feel myself changing before my very eyes under her care, and this has never happened to me before. I consider myself incredibly fortunate to be working with Angela. One could not hope for a better therapist.

ANGELA WILLIAMS IS AMAZING!!

Angela is a wonderful therapist! She truly listens and makes me feel heard, safe, and understood. Angela is gentle and kind and gives great advice. She helps me to see situations in a new way and helps me to feel hopeful for solutions. Since I started therapy with Angela, I feel more like myself than I’ve felt in a while. I am very thankful that I matched with her and I would highly recommend her to anyone!

Angela is the best! I appreciate her time, thoughtfulness, and the work we have done together!

Angela is the third therapist I have seen in my therapy journey. And she helped get me back on track. She makes me feel seen and heard. She also gives great advice and feedback. She’ll follow up with what we talked about last session. She will ask me how I’d like the session to go too. I am super impressed so far and we haven’t even had many sessions. But the difference from my last therapist is unreal. I can’t wait to talk more with her & see my improvement! Thank you so much, Angela, for allowing me to believe in myself and in my therapy journey again:)

Angela is really wonderful and easy to talk to!

Angela is so compassionate, a good listener, transparent, and competent in her abilities. I am grateful for her wisdom in how she counsels me. After every session I feel better with a clearer perspective and more confidence to manage my life.

Angela is thoughtful and always takes the time to really listen and provide curated feedback. I have only been seeing her for a few months but I look forward to our sessions because I always leave feeling confident about whatever I may have been stressing about. She gives direct feedback but also does so in a way that makes you feel listened to and validated.

Angela Williams has done wonders for me. She truly listens and helps me to figure out what’s really bothering me and what I can do about it. She gives me great feedback. She is kind and understanding, and she rocks.

I've met with Angela three times and already she's made a profound impact on me. I really enjoy meeting with her and having our weekly discussions. She's a great listener and action oriented and is truly interested in helping her clients solve issues that are distressing.

Angela is personable and kind, very approachable. I've tried other therapists in the past but she is the first person I have felt comfortable enough to open up with.

Working with Angela is fantastic! She listens, asks how I would have said things differently if I had the chance and provides feedback.

I've only had two sessions with Angela and I'm already feeling a connection forming between us. I feel safe opening up about sensitive topics such as body image and weight with her and feel already like I can trust her. I tend to be very wary in the first few sessions but Angela is helping me break down those barriers and be more vulnerable so I can get the most out of therapy as I possibly can. Thank you Angela!

Accessible and patient.

Angela is a wonderful therapist and a wonderful person. She truly listens to what I have to say and gives me concrete steps to work on bettering my mental health or anything else that I'd like to improve in my life. She is relatable, easy accessible, funny, and kind. I am so grateful that I matched with her!

I've been with Angela for just a few months and she has greatly changed my life. She is so kind and empathetic -- but also so smart! I am so grateful to have met her here!

I feel lucky I found her, in a genuine vulnerable way.

Angela has been a huge help to me in identifying the kind of person I’m married to , along with coping skills.

Angela is well grounded, asks interesting/thoughtful questions, provides neat writing prompts. She responds extensively to journal entries, is super-insightful. I enjoy, very much, working with her.

I have had a wonderful experience working with Angela Williams. She is extremely perceptive and smart about people, and I have learned a great deal from her. I feel that she is very concrete in the way she approaches problems, and has shared with me language and tools that I can use when I am experiencing difficulties in my family interactions. I have been in therapy once before, and I never felt at the time that I learned nearly as much, about myself and my interactions with others, as I am now learning with Angela. I look forward to our weekly session and I can see myself changing, which is very rewarding and surprising to me. I can honestly say that I am now in one of the happiest periods of my life, for many reasons, but it is abundantly clear to me that one of those reasons is my work with Angela. I am deeply grateful to her.

Angela Williams is an excellent therapist. She is very compassionate and works hard to help me see what I need to do to make my situation better. When I started a few months ago, I was significantly depressed and anxious. I feel so much better now!

She’s absolutely amazing!

Angela has been an extremely insightful and caring therapist. She has even taken the time out of her day to “check-in” with a message or by sending a thought-provoking quote between sessions, when I was having a particularly difficult time. I have worked with several therapists from other online therapy platforms, and the quality of services I have received on BetterHelp far exceed my previous experiences. Angela is patient, therapy is goal oriented, and I felt that I truly benefited from every session with her. I would highly recommend her to anyone struggling with anxiety or depression.

Very understanding

Extremely helpful. Recovering Opiate addict fresh out of rehab here, and they’ve provided me with a lot of tools to not only help myself but the people around me as well. I really can’t thank them enough for where i’ve gotten so far with them.

I’ve been speaking with Angela for over a year and it has completely changed my life. She has helped me get through tough relationship patches with both family and significant other. She asks the right questions and has allowed me to ask the right questions as well. 10/10 I would recommend Angela to any person.

I appreciate Angela’s kind, gentle and professional approach. I feel safe to share and confident that I will be understood.

Talking with Angela always makes me feel better and she helps me get to the root of my problems. She is a great person to talk to and always listens and gives fantastic feedback and suggestions.

Very kind and helpful

I think Angela is a great therapist. She so friendly and non judgemental. I enjoy talking to her .

Angela is fantastic and a great mind and voice to have in my life

I think Angela is a truly caring therapist. She makes me feel heard. She reaches out when I am distant and always gives me the space when I need it. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate therapist.

Angela is an incredibly helpful therapist. She's a fantastic listener, makes connections that are so interesting, asks insightful questions, and is kind and personable. She really helped me so much, and I would highly recommend her!

Angela is wonderful, a great listener and offers proactive suggestions and relatable examples. Highly recommend!!

Angela is awesome, love having her as my therapist !!!

Angela has truly changed the way I live my life. Her caring personality and non judgement allowed me to be honest about my struggles and work on them together. Her sense of humor added light and changed my perspective on things I would normally consider heavy and unbearable. She allowed the space for me to cry, laugh and figure out this complicated thing called life. I have the tools now to be able to move through life's inevitable challenges. The most important thing she taught me is that my feelings matter and that I can figure out anything that's thrown at me and know that I will be OK on the other side.

Yes great

Best experience I’ve had with therapy by far and this is coming from someone who has tried many therapists, counselors, psychiatrists, etc! I feel incredibly supported and safe with Angela’s care and attention.

Angela is wonderful. I look forward to our sessions each week.

She gets me. she listens and understands and offers good ways to look at your problems and helpful suggestions that aren’t pushy just understanding

Angela Williams is a wonderful therapist. She is soft spoken, really listens to what we are saying. she provides you with answers that make you feel better in handling situation.

No thanks. I need to actually sit down and think and write and I don’t have the mental capacity for that right this moment.

When I came to Angela, I was struggling with a lot of anger and trust issues. Through her compassionate and engaged approach, she helped me gain new perspectives on my issues. Always kind, insightful, and responsive, Angela helped me navigate very challenging times as they were occurring in my life. As a result, in the span of just a few months my relationships with myself and others have improved radically and I came out of those situations feeling better and equipped with better tools to live. I have been most happy working with Angela and I could not recommend her more!

Love her! She understands and I know I will finally learn how to overcome my grief.

Angela is really perceptive, a great listener, helpful, and very caring.

Great experience! Angela is absolutely wonderful!!

She meets me where I am and is insightful and pragmatic in her approach.

Angela has been very helpful in giving great insight to my issues.

I recommend BetterHelp to every single friend I have. Angela has changed my life and continues to provide the services and relationship that I need from a counselor.

Angela is wonderful- kind, insightful and patient. I feel very fortunate to be working with her.

Angela is so professional, warm, and understanding. I could not be happier with our sessions.

Angela Williams as a therapist is the most amazing therapist there is! she is compassionate, understanding always willing to find a way that you can adapt what she saying to fit how you do things not necessarily by textbook standards, but but real life. she is real as it gets. Angela is genuine and down to earth. Angela Williams is always willing to listen, does not talk over you and is a valuable support system when you don't have one. I give Angela 5+ stars if it was rated by stars

Angela is a great listener and provided very useful and relevant advice. She often uses examples from her own life experiences to better relate to my situation. She helped me better understand what my partner might be feeling and how i can be a better partner. She helps me see other perspectives and possibilities without ever being judgemental.

She listens and is very helpful

She’s so helpful in every way. I am gradual for her

Angela was amazing. She was kind and was able to listen but also offer great advice. She was also very personable. I worked with her for about 6 months - thank you for everything!

Angela has changed my life. I don't know the person I was before I started seeing her.

Angela is great! She not only listens but puts it on me to evaluate how I could implement real solutions to combat what I talk to her about. It puts me in a position to come up with solutions and really try to take steps towards creating better habits.

Angela has been such a pleasure to work with! I am so thankful to have been paired with her and look forward to the time I get to spend with her. She is an amazing listener, non-judgemental, and creates such a safe space to share in.

Angela has been beyond wonderful. I’m a nurse dealing with a pandemic on top of a pile of all sort of stresses. She has been there for me every step of the way. Even on her off hours she’s available when I’m in urgent need to talk to someone. She’s incredible

Makes me feel very comfortable, creating a safe place - expressing empathy and understanding.

Angela is a wonderful therapist, I would recommend her to anyone.

Angela has helped me more than words can say, through some of the toughest times I’m experiencing. She is incredibly kind, patient, responsive, attentive, generous, sweet and intelligent. I value my relationship with her very much and am so grateful to have found her.

Angela has been fantastic. I think she is a true professional and that she listens well and offers great insight. Most importantly, I feel she is a great personality match for myself

Angela has helped me immensely in the short time we were working together. I went into this at a breaking point in my relationship and very skeptical about therapy but with her help I was able to better understand my wife and situation that I am in. I understand this is the beginning and there is more work to do but the amount of stress that has been removed from my life in a short time period is unbelievable. I wish I had taken this step years ago.

Working with Angela has given me exactly what I needed. I'm incredibly thankful for her time, perspective, prompts, and gentleness. I wholeheartedly recommend her!

Angela is kind and listens very well and brings in her own life examples into the conversation so you almost feel like you are taking to a friend. Time goes by fast but the end of the session never feels like a formal cut off - she is very good at pacing the time. This is my first experience with a counselor and I can’t recommend this enough.

Extremely helpful. Angela is present and wants to help and gives great advice! I strongly recommend her!

An excellent, supportive and respectful counselor!

I’ve been working with Angela for a month now and I am beyond pleased! She responds in a timely manner to any messages I send her. She is a fantastic listener and gives great advice. Angela is a very kind and caring person. She is a great therapist!

I love working with Angela and look forward to speaking with her every week. She has encouraged me to make use of the chat between video calls as well and is responsive and supportive. She's been helping me deal with some family issues and self-esteem problems and has been very helpful. I feel less stuck in my worries and problems now than I did a couple months ago before I met her.

Angela is an angel. She has helped me view the stressors in my life in a whole new way and I have learned tools to keep myself centered. Angela has given me that courage to be my best self in every aspect of my life; from family relationships to career goals. Even at my first session, I felt as if I was speaking with a friend. Angela’s kind heart heard my pain and her words helped direct me to a better path. Thank you Angela!

Angela and I have been working together for a couple weeks and so far so good! I appreciate her abilities to listen, summarize, and suggest!

Angela is wonderful. She listens carefully, calmly offers productive and kind feedback and always responds to my messages in a timely manner. I am very grateful to have her as my counselor!

Angela is awesome! I’m thrilled that I was matched with her. I’ve only had a few sessions so far and she’s already been very helpful. I’m looking forward to more and I can’t say I expected to feel that way when I started therapy. I’d definitely recommend her!
