About Angela

Angela DaSilva is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York with over 15 years of practice. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, parenting concerns, anger, and depression. She works directly with individuals to address the everyday problems that make life harder.

In sessions she talks with people about what is happening now and what they want to change. She helps people develop coping strategies for strong emotions and for managing cravings or substance-related problems. When parenting is a stressor she helps parents sort priorities and practical routines that reduce conflict and overwhelm.

Her approach draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide conversations toward clear, achievable steps. Clients can expect practical tools as well as time to talk through feelings and patterns that repeat. She aims to support problem solving around work, family, money, and health pressures.

Angela describes therapy as a collaborative process. She works with each person’s day-to-day reality and strengths to build better coping and clearer choices. Sessions are paced to fit how someone prefers to work, from short check-ins to longer talks focused on change.

Her background includes many years helping people manage mood and behavior challenges in New York. She keeps the focus on practical change and on skills people can use between sessions to reduce stress and improve daily functioning.

BHow sessions work

Evidence-based approaches and how online sessions work

Angela uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on concrete skills and behavior change. One common technique addresses anxiety and stress by teaching breathing, coping strategies, and ways to break cycles of worry so people can manage day-to-day pressure more effectively. Another approach targets addictive behavior by helping people recognize triggers, plan for high-risk situations, and practice alternative responses. This method emphasizes step-by-step changes and repeated practice between sessions to build different habits. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Angela collaborates with each person to identify which techniques match their goals, needs, and preferences. She adjusts the plan over time based on what helps and what feels practical for everyday life. Confirm the specific online session formats before booking, as the original biography does not list particular options. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also help people keep therapy consistent around work, family, and health demands while focusing on practical skills and problem solving.
