About Angela

LCSW in Maine with three years of clinical practice, Angela Currier focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, addiction, and family-related concerns. She uses attachment-based, client-centered, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and narrative techniques in her work. Angela meets people with direct, straightforward communication and prioritizes building a working relationship that feels right for each person.

Angela has experience supporting people facing parenting challenges, adoption and foster care issues, and situations involving family conflict. She has worked with those coping with grief, intimacy concerns, body image and eating issues, and people managing mood differences including bipolar and impulsivity. Her background includes residential programs and work with individuals affected by substance use and post-traumatic stress.

In sessions she listens and reflects what she hears. She aims for clear, practical conversation rather than jargon. That can mean looking at patterns from early attachments, telling and retelling life stories to find meaning, or using short mindfulness practices to reduce immediate stress.

She also uses motivational interviewing to help people weigh options and make changes they actually want. Angela helps people address communication problems, codependency, and blended family dynamics through focused discussion and problem-solving. She describes herself as direct and nonjudgmental in session.

People who want to begin are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial meeting. Angela suggests the first sessions focus on whether her style and methods fit the person's needs and goals before moving into longer term work.

How her approaches translate to remote sessions

Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current connections. In remote sessions this means looking at patterns in real time and talking through reactions to relationships and parenting. Client-centered therapy centers on the person’s perspective and uses reflective listening to help people feel understood and to sort out next steps. Mindfulness therapy teaches brief awareness and breathing practices to reduce immediate stress and support emotion regulation.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Angela will collaborate with the person to identify which methods best fit their goals and preferences. That may involve trying a short mindfulness exercise, discussing family patterns from an attachment lens, or using motivational interviewing questions to clarify motivation for change.

The practical benefits of working remotely include fitting sessions into busy schedules and reducing travel time. Because session formats were not specified in the biography, confirm current session options before booking. Online meetings can make it easier to have shorter check-ins, use video when helpful, or rely on audio if bandwidth is limited. The focus remains on arranging sessions that fit day-to-day life while using the selected therapeutic approaches to address the person's concerns.
