About Angela
Angela Hicks is a licensed clinical social worker with seven years of practice in Texas. She completed a Master of Social Work at the University of Houston Graduate College of Social Work and has worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings. Angela focuses on straightforward, person-focused care and helps adults build skills to manage mood and stress.
Her work centers on common concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief, low self-esteem, and stress.
Background and approach
She also addresses issues such as abandonment, codependency, communication problems, control challenges, and feelings of isolation. Angela aims to make sessions a place where people can talk without feeling judged. Angela uses methods that match each person’s goals and preferences.
She draws on client-centered listening, cognitive strategies to change unhelpful thinking, and skills from dialectical behavior therapy when emotion regulation is needed. Mindfulness and narrative techniques also appear when they fit the client’s story. In a typical session she helps a person name emotions, notice patterns, and try small changes between meetings.
She supports practical steps for managing panic, improving communication, or working through grief. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person’s readiness. People who choose Angela can expect direct conversation, clear goals, and options for skills practice.
She works with adults ages 18 to 65 and offers therapy in English for Texas residents.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Angela often uses client-centered therapy to start, which means the therapist listens closely and follows the person’s concerns rather than imposing a plan. This approach helps people feel heard and shapes goals that matter to them.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy or CBT to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, panic, and mood concerns because it focuses on small, practical experiments and thought patterns.
Dialectical behavior therapy or DBT skills are offered when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are priorities. DBT gives concrete tools for managing intense feelings and improving reactions in stressful moments.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what feels doable. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress and needs change.
Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and comfort levels. Video is good for longer conversations, phone can work when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can support quick check-ins or skills practice. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or travel.
