About Angela
Angela Knight is a California licensed marriage and family therapist with 29 years of experience. She helps people who are feeling stressed, anxious, depressed, or overwhelmed by life changes. She also supports those coping with relationship struggles, trauma or abuse, addiction, grief, and issues with self-esteem and intimacy.
Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. She treats each person as the expert on their own story and looks for strengths to build on.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on practical skills, clearer communication, and small changes that add up over time. Therapy draws on several approaches to fit each person’s needs. Angela uses Attachment-Based ideas to look at how early bonds affect current relationships.
She also blends client-centered methods to keep the work focused on the client’s perspective and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and change unhelpful thought patterns. People can expect a mix of skill teaching and reflective conversation. She may offer techniques from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy when those match goals.
The aim is to help people manage symptoms, improve connection, and make choices that feel more aligned with their values. Sessions are offered in English and provided remotely by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling through the Start Therapy flow.
Angela emphasizes steady progress at a pace that feels manageable.

Online support
Attachment and skills work through online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand why they react in certain ways and learn new ways to connect and feel safer in relationships. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's perspective and builds a respectful, nonjudgmental space for growth. It helps people clarify goals and feel heard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy examines thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms and change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, then use methods that fit those needs. This is a collaborative process where techniques are adjusted over time based on what is helping.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deeper emotional work. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day and require less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging offer brief check-ins or ongoing support between appointments. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, caregiving, or other commitments while keeping the focus on progress and practical skills.
