About Angela
Angela Grimes is a licensed independent social worker (LISW) practicing in Ohio with 19 years of experience. She focuses on problems people commonly face - stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and parenting challenges. Angela aims to make the first step feel manageable and offers steady support along the way.
She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk through their thoughts and feelings. Sessions are straightforward and practical, focusing on what matters most to the person in front of her. Angela listens, reflects, and helps identify small changes that add up over time.
Her work often addresses coping with life changes, grief, sleeping problems, anger, and substance issues. She also supports people dealing with ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, compassion fatigue, and relationship strain. Angela pays attention to how everyday routines, work stress, and family roles affect emotional health.
Angela draws on methods from cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused therapy to shape conversations that lead to clear, doable steps. These approaches help people test new ways of thinking and try specific actions between sessions. The aim is practical progress rather than long lists of theory.
Her background includes nearly two decades of helping people navigate painful times and regain a sense of control. For someone needing steady, experienced support, Angela offers direct guidance and collaborative problem-solving.
Practical approaches for online progress
Angela uses cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused therapy to guide online work in straightforward ways. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new thinking in daily life, which can reduce anxiety, low mood, and sleeping problems. Solution-focused therapy centers on strengths and small, achievable goals so clients can notice progress quickly and build momentum.Choosing the right approach is a joint process. Angela will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan if needed, keeping the work focused on what the client wants to change.
