About Angela
Angela Grimes is an Ohio-licensed independent social worker (LISW) with 19 years of practice. She works with stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, low self-esteem, and depression, and she helps people manage life changes and ongoing coping needs.
She uses practical, conversational methods in sessions. Angela listens to what is happening now and helps people notice patterns in thoughts and behavior. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to outline small, manageable steps clients can try between meetings.
Sessions tend to focus on concrete problems like sleeping difficulties, anger, or motivation, and on everyday relationship and family concerns. Angela also works with people facing addictions, grief, caregiver strain, and issues that come with aging or chronic illness.
Her approach emphasizes clear goals and measurable changes. That might mean testing a different way of responding to social situations, practicing a short skill, or building on what already works. Progress is checked in the next session and plans are adjusted as needed.
People who contact her usually start by describing one or two pressing concerns. From there she helps set priorities and a plan. The style is straightforward and practical, with attention to what people can do between sessions to feel more able to handle everyday stresses.
How her approaches translate to online work
Angela uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior experiments that change how they feel. CBT is often used for anxiety, sleep problems, low mood, and managing daily stress. Solution-Focused Therapy is brief and practical - it emphasizes clear goals and steps clients can begin immediately to notice change.Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. Angela will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then help choose methods that fit those priorities. The work is paced to what the person can manage and is reviewed regularly to make adjustments.
The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy day and reducing travel time so people can attend more consistently. If you need specifics about session formats, please confirm the current options before booking, as formats are arranged through the platform's setup. The focus online remains on concrete, achievable steps people can practice between sessions to manage anxiety and everyday challenges.
