Angela Harris , LCSW

Angela Harris is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in North Carolina with 14 years of professional experience. She earned a Master of Social Work from East Carolina University in 2012 and has worked across multiple settings advocating for and supporting LGBTQIA individuals and undocumented community members. Angela focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety, address addictions, improve relationships, build motivation and self-esteem, and navigate feelings of hopelessness and grief.

Her approach centers on creating an open, nonjudgmental space where individuals and families can share thoughts and emotions safely. Angela draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to tailor support to each person served, meeting them where they are and partnering on practical strategies for change. She also works with families on blended-family challenges, caregiver stress, communication and commitment issues, and co-occurring concerns such as bipolar disorder or ADHD.

Recognizing that taking the first step toward a more fulfilling life requires courage, Angela offers steady support through that process. She welcomes people seeking help with parenting, relationship repair, recovery from substance use, or coping with loss, and she collaborates with each person to set goals and develop sustainable coping skills.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Care

Angela uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to the concern at hand. For stress and anxiety she emphasizes practical coping skills and structured strategies that help reduce overwhelm and build emotional resilience. For addictions and motivation-related issues she focuses on interventions that support behavior change and relapse prevention, helping individuals identify triggers, strengthen commitment to recovery, and develop step-by-step plans for progress. She also applies relational and family-oriented strategies when working with couples and blended families to improve communication, set boundaries, and repair patterns that contribute to conflict.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Angela works with each person to explore goals, preferences, and life circumstances, adapting techniques as needed so treatment feels relevant and achievable. Together they decide which methods fit best and adjust the plan over time.

Online therapy with Angela is available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and easier access to consistent care. These options make it possible to schedule sessions around work and family obligations, maintain continuity during transitions, and receive steady support from licensed professionals even when in-person visits are not convenient.
