About Angelina
Angelina Rhoades is a licensed clinical social worker in New York with seven years of professional experience.

Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative and goal-focused so people can practice changes between meetings. Angelina also supports work on related issues such as attachment and abandonment concerns, codependency, and communication problems. She helps clients facing relationship strain, separation, blended family challenges, and commitment worries.
Other areas she addresses include body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, and substance use concerns. Her approach is straightforward and skills-oriented. People can expect clear steps to try at home, emotion regulation tools, and space to talk through difficult memories or patterns.
Angelina emphasizes building confidence and motivation alongside coping skills. Located in New York, she offers services in English and welcomes international clients. The profile is aimed at parents and others who want concise, down-to-earth information about what working with her looks like.
Evidence-based techniques and flexible online care
Angelina uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and coping strategies. One common approach emphasizes emotion regulation and stress-management skills to reduce intense reactions and improve day-to-day functioning; this helps people who struggle with anxiety, anger, or chronic stress. Another approach focuses on building healthier relationship patterns and addressing attachment or abandonment concerns by identifying interaction habits and trying new communication skills to improve connection and set boundaries.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will work with each person to figure out which techniques match their goals, needs, and comfort level. That collaborative process includes checking progress and adapting methods when something is not helping.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy lives. Video calls let people work face-to-face when helpful, phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat allows shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, and travel.
