Angelique Gettle

Angelique Gettle is a licensed marriage and family therapist with 25 years of clinical experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, and issues with addiction. She also supports those coping with relationship and family problems, intimacy concerns, self-esteem struggles, and compassion fatigue.

Her style is warm and interactive. Sessions tend to be straightforward and respectful, with an emphasis on listening and collaboration. She treats each person as an individual and adapts her approach to their needs and life situation.

Angelique uses a mix of therapeutic approaches to meet different goals. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape present patterns. She uses client-centered methods to keep the conversation focused on the person's experience. Cognitive behavioral techniques help with practical skill building for anxiety, mood, and coping.

She also integrates elements of emotionally-focused and existential therapy when addressing deeper patterns, meaning, and connection. Her background includes working with trauma, women’s issues, and attachment-related concerns, and she has incorporated art and animal-assisted work into practice where appropriate.

Angelique is licensed in California as an LMFT. She encourages people to take the first step toward change and offers steady support and guidance through the process.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns affect present behavior and feelings. It helps people notice how they connect, respond to closeness, and repeat old patterns so they can make different choices in relationships.

Client-Centered Therapy centers conversations on the person's perspective, offering empathic listening and acceptance. This approach helps people feel heard and supported while they work toward clearer goals and personal growth.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That conversation may lead to using attachment ideas, client-centered listening, cognitive strategies, or a blend of methods over time.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. Benefits include fewer travel requirements, more flexible scheduling, and the ability to check in from different places when needed. Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. The focus in sessions is the same as in person - building insight, practicing new skills, and working toward clearer ways of coping and relating.
