About Angela
Angela Whitecrane Widdicombe brings three decades of clinical experience to people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, trauma, and life changes. She is Angela Whitecrane Widdicombe, LCSW and LMFT, and she works with adults facing relationship strains, intimacy concerns, caregiver stress, and the emotional fallout from divorce or separation.
Her approach centers on building a strong connection. She focuses on listening closely and helping people name what they are feeling. Sessions tend to be straightforward and practical, with time spent on skills for handling strong emotions, improving communication, and reducing unhelpful patterns.
She blends several psychotherapy approaches to match each person's needs. Cognitive behavioral methods help spot and shift difficult thoughts. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports making room for hard feelings while choosing meaningful actions. Attachment-based and emotionally focused ideas guide work around closeness, trust, and repair.
Angela has long experience in community and clinical settings, including work with foster children, homeless veterans, and addiction clinics. That background informs her understanding of poverty, trauma, violence, and substance-related problems without defining a single path for everyone.
People who come to her often want a clear plan and compassionate listening. She helps people clarify goals, practice new ways of relating, and find steady steps toward feeling more able to manage life after loss, disaster, or major change.
How her approaches fit into online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without fighting them, then choose actions that match their values. It is useful when someone is stuck avoiding feelings or uncertain about next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going and practicing new, concrete skills to change those patterns. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationship patterns affect closeness and trust, and it is helpful when relationship strain and intimacy issues are central.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, and then try approaches that suit those needs in a collaborative way.

Many people appreciate that online work lets them focus on skills practice and emotional processing from wherever they are, while still working closely with a licensed professional.
