About Angelique
Angelique Fontaine is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with an MD and LCSW-C credential who offers practical, straightforward help for parents feeling overwhelmed. She writes simply and listens closely to understand what is hardest right now. Her approach aims to make daily life more manageable and reduce persistent stress and worry.
She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy, and psychodynamic ideas to tailor sessions to each person.
Background and approach
In practice that means identifying thought patterns that increase tension, processing traumatic memories when needed, and helping people find clearer ways to make changes. Angelique has four years of clinical experience in Maryland and has supported people facing anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, and trauma. She also addresses concerns like anger, eating difficulties, ADHD, intimacy issues, and challenges connected to attachment or abandonment.
She includes focus on women’s issues and domestic violence when relevant. Sessions are conversational and goal oriented. She helps people set small, doable steps and checks progress along the way.
Motivational Interviewing tools are used to strengthen readiness for change and to weigh realistic options. Her work blends evidence-based techniques with an attentive, trauma-informed manner. That mix aims to help parents cope with life changes, reduce symptoms of PTSD or anxiety, and rebuild confidence in managing family roles.
Angelique encourages gentle persistence and practical problem solving.

Approaches That Fit Your Life and Schedule
Angelique commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing to address symptoms that disrupt daily life. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood. EMDR helps process painful memories and decrease their emotional intensity, which is often helpful for trauma and post-traumatic stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide whether to emphasize CBT skills, trauma processing, motivational strategies, or elements from narrative and psychodynamic work to build insight and change patterns.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use face-to-face interaction when that matters. Phone sessions can work better when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits a break at work. Live chat or messaging supports ongoing reflection and quick check-ins between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while fitting into a busy parenting life.
