About Clarinda
Clarinda Squires is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Georgia with nine years of clinical experience. She helps people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, relationship strain, or big life changes. Her approach is direct and compassionate, aimed at practical change rather than talk alone.
Clarinda's background includes clinical assessments, community mental health, crisis work, and independent practice. She has supported people through trauma, grief, and long-term emotional patterns that can be hard to name.
Background and approach
Many clients she sees manage busy lives yet feel emotionally exhausted beneath the surface. In sessions she is warm and straightforward. Clients get clear questions, concrete tools, and steady feedback instead of vague reassurance.
Clarinda focuses on helping people slow down, notice what is happening inside, and interrupt unhelpful patterns that keep problems stuck. Her work draws on cognitive-behavioral ideas, trauma-informed care, strengths-based techniques, motivational interviewing, and practical tools for emotional regulation and communication. She blends those approaches into plans tailored to each person's daily life, not one-size-fits-all solutions.
Clarinda also supports people dealing with parenting strain, commitment questions, communication breakdowns, divorce and separation issues, forgiveness, life purpose, self-love, and women's issues. She aims to help people build confidence in coping and communicating so they can move forward with more clarity and balance.
Approaches that translate well to online care
CBT ideas focus on changing thoughts and behaviors that keep anxiety and stress going. Sessions often include simple exercises and homework that people can try between meetings to test what changes help. Trauma-informed care pays attention to safety and pacing while addressing the long-term impact of difficult events, using gentle steps to build tolerance for hard memories and feelings.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Clarinda collaborates with each person to decide which techniques fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. That choice can shift over time as progress happens or new priorities emerge.
Online therapy lets people connect in ways that fit their life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during busy days. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quick check-ins, short coaching, or when writing helps clarify thoughts. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a crowded schedule while keeping focus on practical tools and steady progress.
