About Angella
Angella Catlin is a licensed clinical social worker with nine years of clinical experience and a total of 16 years in social work. She offers appointments that can fit into a morning routine, a commute, or a lunch break so therapy can work with busy schedules.
Angella aims to help people take practical steps toward a more satisfying life without upending daily responsibilities. She focuses on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, and parenting challenges.
Background and approach
She also supports people navigating trauma and abuse, grief, addiction, ADHD, and relationship worries. Additional areas of attention include caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, first responder issues, postpartum depression, and women’s issues. Angella uses a mix of approaches to match what each person needs.
She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at relationship patterns, client-centered work to keep sessions focused on the person, and cognitive-behavioral strategies to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Mindfulness and dialectical behavior therapy tools show up when skills for managing emotion and stress are helpful. Her practice style is open and nonjudgmental.
Sessions aim to be a place to speak frankly about hard feelings and find concrete coping steps. Angella values early intervention and prevention and often helps people increase motivation and build confidence. She is licensed in Idaho and Utah and conducts therapy in English.
People who want to make small, steady changes that fit their lives may find her approach useful.

Therapeutic approaches that work well online
Attachment-based work looks at patterns in relationships and helps people notice how early connections affect current interactions. It can be useful for improving closeness, setting boundaries, and understanding recurring conflicts. Client-centered therapy centers conversations on the person’s goals and perspectives, offering a respectful space to talk through feelings and make decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavior changes to shift mood and stress.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your concerns, discuss options, and recommend steps that fit your goals and daily life. You and the therapist can try different tools and adjust the plan based on what works best for you.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions are useful when face-to-face interaction helps build rapport. Phone sessions can fit into a commute or a short break and need less internet bandwidth. Live chat or text messaging can be helpful for quick check-ins, brief skill practice, or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and keep progress going even when in-person visits are hard to arrange.
