About Angela

Angela Grimes is a licensed independent social worker (LISW) in Ohio with 19 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and depression. Angela aims to create a calm space where clients can talk about what feels hard without worry about being judged.

Her approach is practical and goal-oriented. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. Solution-Focused Therapy helps set clear, short-term goals and build on small changes that make daily life easier.

Angela supports people facing parenting challenges, grief, sleeping problems, addiction concerns, and relationship or family tensions. She also works with issues such as ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, compassion fatigue, and caregiver stress. Her practice includes attention to aging and geriatric issues, body image, and cancer-related emotional strain.

Sessions are conversational and focused on skills you can use right away. Angela listens closely, offers observations, and suggests small, doable steps between meetings. That practical rhythm helps people feel progress even when life feels overwhelming.

Clients who reach out are guided through a simple first step to connect and schedule. Angela emphasizes collaboration so each plan reflects the person’s needs, strengths, and daily responsibilities.

How Angela’s Approaches Fit into Online Therapy

Angela uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thought patterns that increase worry or sadness and then try small behavior changes to test new ways of coping. This approach is often useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and mood fluctuations.

She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy, which centers on setting clear, immediate goals and identifying steps that lead to noticeable change. This method is helpful when someone wants concrete strategies for parenting challenges, stress management, or rebuilding routines after a life change.

Figuring out the right approach is part of the work together. Angela will talk with each person about their goals, daily life, and what feels most useful. She adapts techniques so they match a client’s needs and preferences, and decisions about methods are made collaboratively.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people continue care while managing sleep schedules, childcare, or treatment for medical issues.
