About Tangela

Dr. Tangela Isely brings a collaborative, evidence-informed style to her work as a licensed therapist.

Background and approach

With 19 years of clinical experience and credentials as an LPC and LCPC, she combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and a client-centered stance to address concerns such as trauma, anxiety, depression, and ADHD. Her approach emphasizes listening carefully to each person’s history and helping clients develop practical strategies that align with their values and goals.

She aims to create an empowering process that reduces the risk of re-traumatization while promoting skill building and emotional regulation. Dr.

Isely draws on mindfulness practices alongside structured interventions to support coping with life transitions, stress, grief, addictive behaviors, and relationship or family issues. Based in Texas, she frames therapy as a collaborative journey that respects individual experience and fosters resilience.

People working with her can expect a compassionate, strengths-focused clinician who balances empathy with evidence-based tools. Dr.

Isely encourages reaching out when ready and offers flexible online session formats to fit different schedules and needs.

Therapeutic approaches for online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify their values and take committed steps toward a meaningful life while learning to relate differently to difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and developing practical skills to reduce anxiety, depression, and other distressing symptoms. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, and distress tolerance to help manage intense emotions and improve relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist explores a client's goals, preferences, and needs and collaboratively selects or combines methods that fit best, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds so the plan remains responsive and relevant.

Online sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and offer flexibility for different communication styles. These formats allow licensed professionals to deliver interventions, teach skills, and check in between sessions, supporting continuity of care and access regardless of location.
