About Angela
Angela Grimes is an Ohio-licensed independent social worker (LISW) with 19 years of clinical experience. She focuses on everyday problems that can pile up - stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, sleep problems, and anger. Her practice also covers depression, parenting struggles, substance concerns, and relationship and family issues.
She uses straightforward conversation and goal-focused work. Sessions are practical and action-oriented, with time spent naming patterns, testing small changes, and tracking what helps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy are regular tools she uses to structure sessions and set clear, achievable steps.
Clients can expect discussions about coping skills, routines, and communication techniques. Angela pays attention to how thinking and behavior interact, and she helps people try different approaches to reduce frustration and improve daily functioning. She also addresses grief, caregiver stress, and health-related life changes.
Over nearly two decades she has worked with people facing ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, aging and geriatric matters, autism, body image, cancer-related stress, and co-occurring issues. She also helps with codependency, control problems, and the fallout from divorce or separation.
Her way of working is direct and practical. People leave sessions with specific exercises, clearer plans, and small experiments to practice between meetings. To start, follow the site's matching process and schedule a first session through the online options button.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Angela commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in her work. CBT looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills for changing unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anger, anxiety, low mood, and sleep problems. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on current strengths and small, specific steps clients can try right away to move toward their goals.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Angela will work with each client to pick strategies that fit their needs, goals, and daily routine. That collaboration means sessions can shift toward skill-building, short experiments, or problem-solving depending on what is most helpful.
The practical benefits of meeting remotely include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and keeping continuity when life is hectic. Confirm the exact session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work still focuses on clear goals, skill practice between meetings, and short action steps that can be tried between sessions to address anger, stress, and related concerns.
