Angela Fleischer , LCSW

Angela Fleischer is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Oregon with ten years of professional experience. She balances clinical insight with institutional expertise, serving as the Director of Equity Grievance and Title IX Coordinator at Southern Oregon University while also consulting for Veracities to train interviewers in the Forensic Experiential Trauma Interview. In addition to that work, she has served as faculty for Being Trauma Informed and the National Center for Campus Public Safety, teaching professionals how to conduct trauma-informed investigations.

Fleischer is actively involved in community and policy work. She is a founding board member of the You Have Options Program, sits on the executive board of the Jackson County Council Against Domestic and Sexual Violence, and participates on the Oregon Attorney General’s Sexual Assault Task Force. She founded and administers Campus Choice, a partner program to You Have Options, and has provided testimony before the Federal Senate Judiciary subcommittee on Crime and Terrorism while collaborating with lawmakers on public policy formation.

In clinical practice she has extensive experience supporting survivors of sexual violence, intimate partner violence, stalking, and childhood sexual abuse. She has also worked with families and adolescents to improve communication and navigate difficult dynamics, and with individuals living with post-traumatic stress, including law enforcement, military personnel, medical workers, and fire safety professionals. Her areas of focus include stress and anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting, career transitions, LGBT issues, and coaching around life changes. As an LCSW - a licensed clinical social worker - she combines clinical training and practical strategies to help clients explore challenges and pursue more fulfilling lives.

Fleischer emphasizes a collaborative, nonjudgmental approach that supports clients who are ready to take the first steps toward change. She works to create space for honest conversation about thoughts and feelings and partners with each person to identify goals and strategies that fit their values and circumstances.

Trauma-Informed and Skills-Based Online Therapy

Angela Fleischer employs trauma-informed approaches that recognize the impact of traumatic experiences and prioritize understanding and safety while working through symptoms and recovery. This style of work is suited to survivors of sexual violence, intimate partner violence, stalking, and other forms of trauma, and emphasizes pacing, validation, and building coping resources.

She also uses skills-based interventions focused on stress and anxiety management and coaching for life transitions. These practical strategies teach tools for emotional regulation, communication, and problem solving to help with day-to-day functioning, relationship challenges, career shifts, and parenting concerns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Fleischer works with each person to determine what methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting interventions as progress is made and priorities evolve.

Online therapy with Fleischer is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for clients with varied schedules or responsibilities. Remote formats can make it easier to access consistent support and to integrate therapeutic work into busy lives while maintaining continuity with a licensed professional.
