Angela Bellinghausen , LPC, LIMHP

Angela Bellinghausen is a Colorado-based licensed counselor with three decades of experience supporting people through life transitions, loss, and persistent stress. As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner (LIMHP) she blends practical skills with a strengths-based outlook to help clients build coping strategies and reconnect with what matters.

Her approach is collaborative and client-centered, emphasizing healing and personal growth rather than an exclusive focus on diagnosis. Angela draws on evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and she encourages mindfulness and practical life skills to reduce anxiety, manage depression, and improve sleep and self-esteem. She also brings experience addressing grief, relationship challenges, addictions, trauma, and the complexities of aging.

Clients who work with Angela can expect a respectful, integrative style that honors individual values and preferences. She prioritizes helping people find sustainable coping tools, strengthen communication, and increase self-compassion while navigating difficult emotions and life changes. Her long-standing practice reflects a commitment to ongoing learning and to meeting each person where they are on their journey toward greater wellness.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Angela Bellinghausen uses approaches that emphasize both practical skills and personal values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and building concrete strategies to reduce symptoms like anxiety, depression, and sleep difficulties. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values, accept difficult emotions, and take committed action toward a meaningful life - this can be useful for stress, grief, and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and respect for the client's own pace and goals, supporting self-exploration and empowerment.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative part of the work. Angela will explore the client’s needs, goals, and preferences and adjust methods over time so the treatment fits the individual rather than the other way around. This partnership helps shape a therapy plan that feels practical and relevant.

Online therapy offers flexible access to licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make scheduling easier, allow continuity of care across busy lives, and let clients receive consistent support from home or while traveling when available, all while working with a therapist to meet their goals.
