About Griselda
Griselda Abreu is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who helps people manage anxiety, depression, and the effects of trauma. She brings eight years of clinical experience and works in both English and Spanish. Griselda focuses on building self-compassion and practical coping skills.
Her approach centers on plain, practical work. She listens to a person’s story, identifies patterns that cause distress, and teaches tools to reduce panic, worry, and low mood.
Background and approach
Sessions often include breathing and grounding techniques, thought-focused work, and action steps to try between meetings. Griselda pays close attention to guilt and shame as drivers of emotional pain. She helps people notice harsh self-talk and replace it with kinder, realistic self-statements.
That kind of shift can ease self-esteem struggles and improve daily functioning. For clients who want it, she weaves faith-based perspectives into therapy. She respects spiritual beliefs and uses them when they support healing and growth.
This is offered as one part of a broader, evidence-based plan. Located in Indiana, she works with adults facing anxiety, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, and related concerns. Work is collaborative: goals are set together and adjusted as progress is made.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Griselda uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One approach emphasizes skills for managing panic and anxiety, teaching breathing, grounding, and short exercises to reduce intense symptoms. Another approach works on shifting unhelpful thoughts and beliefs that feed depression and low self-esteem, helping people test and reword those thoughts in daily life.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Griselda collaborates with each person to choose which techniques to try based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts the plan as progress is made so the approach stays useful and relevant.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to add flexibility. Video calls are useful for fuller interaction and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day or require less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging allow brief check-ins, written reflections, or ongoing support between meetings. These options help make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or other responsibilities.
