About Angie

Angie Hanson is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Idaho who helps people manage anger, stress, anxiety, and related concerns. She speaks plainly and listens with empathy, aiming to make sessions feel approachable and down-to-earth for worried parents and others seeking help.

She brings six years as a counselor and more than a decade in mental health work overall. Before becoming a counselor she worked with children, adults, and families on behavior change. Angie holds a master of arts in psychology and a master of science in counseling, and her graduate training emphasized trauma, grief, and crisis counseling.

In session she uses cognitive behavioral approaches alongside mindfulness-influenced practices. She also works from a client-centered stance that focuses on each person’s goals and values. Angie describes her style as gentle and empathetic, but able to be direct when needed to help people move forward.

Her experience includes helping with depression, panic, agoraphobia, trauma, addictions, relationship and parenting challenges, sleep problems, and coping with life changes. She also lists support for ADHD, bipolar concerns, and a range of medical and caregiving stressors.

Angie has experience with veterans and often welcomes people with military backgrounds. Sessions are offered in English. To begin, prospective clients use the site's Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How Angie’s approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters most and take steps toward those values, even when difficult feelings arise. It can be useful for anger, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, panic, depressive symptoms, and sleeplessness. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and working at the client's pace to build trust and personal insight.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Angie will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. She checks in about how techniques are working and adjusts the plan together rather than following a rigid script.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats. Before booking, confirm the current session options so you know how meetings are scheduled and delivered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit help into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. Those practical benefits often help people keep work on their goals between sessions and apply new skills in day-to-day life.
