About Angela
Angela Knight is a California-licensed marriage and family therapist with 29 years of clinical experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, trauma, and issues with self-esteem and motivation.

Her approach is collaborative and straightforward. She treats clients as the experts on their own lives and focuses on building strengths. Sessions often include learning new skills and practicing them between meetings. Angela uses familiar techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and emotionally-focused approaches to help people gain clearer thinking and better emotional management.
Angela draws on nearly three decades of experience to tailor strategies to each person’s needs. She blends emotion-focused work with problem-solving that fits everyday life. Parents, professionals, and people coping with grief or major life changes will find tools for calmer days and clearer choices.
Her style is warm and direct. She helps clients notice patterns, try small changes, and build sustainable habits. Therapy can focus on communication, coping with loss, managing mood swings, or addressing addiction-related behaviors.

How her approaches shape online care
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how relationships influence feelings and behavior. It helps people notice patterns in how they connect with others and try new ways of relating to feel safer and more understood.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and build behaviors that improve mood and reduce anxiety.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, needs, and preferences to pick or combine methods that fit each person. This is a collaborative process where feedback and small adjustments guide the plan.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm available options when booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid travel time, or have a shorter check-in when needed. Many people find that meeting remotely helps maintain continuity during life transitions while still focusing on skills practice and emotional work.
