I am a Licensed Professional Counselor/Art Therapist and I have a wide range of experience working with clients of all ages. I have worked with children in special education, elderly adults in hospice, and provided art therapy as well as individual counseling to patients who suffer from addictions and/or severe and persistent mental illness.
In addition to working with psychiatric patients, I have provided education to family members through the National Alliance of Mental Illness. As an Qualified Mental Health Professional at Truman Medical Center in KC, MO I have worked with some of the most difficult cases in the community and also have personal experience with family members who suffer from mental illness.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Angela Kieler. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Although I understand my life is very unique, Angela has always made my concerns, dreams and way that I communicate feel valid. I love how she is always there for me, especially when people in my real life fall short. I'm very thankful I tried a few therapists before I met her and think she is wise and also willing to learn and grow with me respectfully. I'm a better person each time she challenges me to grow, and I'm a humble person who feels accepted even when I do not.

I was very fortunate to be paired with Angela for my counselor. She is extremely knowledgeable, skilled, kind, respectful, compassionate and empathetic. Her approach helped me feel supported and heard. With her encouragement, support and help I was able to get back on track and feel my positive, happy and best self again.
Written on Aug 22, 2023 after therapy with Angela for 2 months on issues concerning bipolar disorder
Angela is very compassionate and helpful! I started BetterHelp because my relationship was struggling largely due to my partner’s mental health issues. Angela provided guidance and resources to help me process my own situation and understand the mental health issues of my partner. Before therapy, I felt so confused and unsure of where I was in life. I feel like I’m in a better mental/physical state now.

Angela's voice is very comforting. She listens and is very understanding, it's exactly what I needed during my stressful time in my life. Angela gave me guidance, structure when I felt anxious and overwhelmed at that time. I was afraid to ask for guidance in structure because as an adult we should know how to already, but her compassion and patience helped me in the challenging couple months. Thank you Angela.

You get the sense that Angela truly cares for her patients and that she is listening and connecting with you and your struggles. It feels very comfortable to speak with her about traumatic events because she shows emotion, asks interesting questions, and even shares her own little stories that might be helpful to reflect on to help digest some issues or topics. It shows she can relate to patients at a deep level, and that she comes to her patients with great empathy and care. She makes sure you leave the session feeling motivated, and like you have an action plan for growth which makes you excited for the next session.

Angela is hands down the best therapist I have ever worked with. She continues to go above and beyond for me including making scheduling changes and being understanding my schedule and situation as well. I feel a natural connection and it is very easy to open up to her, where I found doing the same to be very difficult with previous therapists. Thank you Angela!!

After only two sessions, it may be too early to leave a review, especially seeing as I have never took part in therapy before. But the most important thing to me is that I can easily talk to my therapist, without any judgement and with understanding. So far, Angela has understood my feelings and has been very kind. So far she has also offered really nice options to help me outside of our therapy sessions.

I have appreciated and valued every session with Angela thus far. I have been seeing her for a couple of months now. She has a patience and caring approach. Often times, my life feels like a hurricane of swirling emotions and immense challenges around me. Just trying constantly to find my way out of the storm to the bright sunshine on the other side.
