Angelamaria Riedi, LCSW

Angelamaria Riedi is a New York licensed clinical social worker with six years of experience helping people who feel overwhelmed by depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship strain, grief, or substance use. She is LGBTQ+ friendly and has worked with people from many cultural backgrounds. She also supports those facing aging and caregiver stress, chronic illness or pain, and other life transitions.

Her style is open-minded and non-judgmental. She uses a strengths-based outlook to help people recognize what they already do well. Sessions focus on practical steps people can try between appointments and clearer thinking about everyday choices.

Angelamaria has experience across the lifespan, from adolescents to seniors, and she brings that range to conversations about work, parenting, and managing major life changes. She aims to make therapy a place to notice skills, test new ways of coping, and reduce shame around setbacks.

She frames difficult experiences like trauma, loss, or addiction as problems to be understood rather than failures. Therapy often includes working on communication, boundaries, and managing stress so everyday life feels more manageable.

To start, she asks simple questions about what matters most and then tailors an approach based on individual needs. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and scheduling happens through the platform’s matching and booking process.

Evidence-informed approaches and online care

Angelamaria draws on evidence-based techniques presented in clear, practical terms. One common thread is a strengths-based approach that helps people identify skills they already use and build on them to handle stress, relationship problems, or recovery from addiction. This approach is useful for boosting self-esteem and motivation.

She also works with strategies aimed at managing symptoms of anxiety, depression, and trauma by teaching breathing and grounding skills, planning small behavioral changes, and improving communication. These techniques help when daily functioning feels disrupted by mood or trauma-related symptoms.

Finding the right approach happens together. The therapist will ask about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before, then try methods that fit the person’s needs. Progress is checked regularly and methods are adjusted based on how well they work in real life.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. The practical benefits of online therapy can include fitting sessions into a busy day, shorter check-ins when needed, and avoiding travel time so therapy fits around work or caregiving. Licensed professionals can adapt pacing and tools to suit remote sessions and everyday schedules.
