About Clarinda

Clarinda Squires is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Georgia with nine years of professional experience. She guides people through stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, parenting strain, and the fallout of trauma and abuse. Her approach aims to help clients make steady changes they can use in daily life.

Clarinda has worked across community mental health, crisis services, clinical assessments, and independent practice. That mix gave her experience with people facing tight schedules, big responsibilities, and emotional burnout.

Background and approach

She focuses on straightforward, practical work rather than long theory talks. Her style is warm and direct. Sessions include honest questions, clear observations, and exercises to slow down and notice patterns.

She helps people recognize what they do when they feel stuck and try new, manageable ways of coping. Clinically she uses cognitive-behavioral ideas, trauma-informed perspectives, strengths-based approaches, motivational interviewing, and hands-on emotion regulation and communication tools. Those methods are used to tailor a plan that fits each person’s life and goals rather than a one-size-fits-all checklist.

Clarinda supports people through commitment worries, communication problems, divorce or separation issues, forgiveness work, finding life purpose, building self-love, and concerns specific to women. Her aim is to help clients regain clarity, balance, and the confidence to handle day-to-day demands.

Online support

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Many of the techniques Clarinda uses are practical and fit well into remote sessions. Cognitive-behavioral strategies focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes; this helps with anxiety, stress, and day-to-day coping. Trauma-informed work emphasizes safety, pacing, and understanding how past events affect current reactions, which supports people working through trauma and abuse.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Clarinda will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then adapt methods as therapy progresses. The plan is revisited regularly so techniques match current needs and life demands.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions are useful for deeper conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and messaging work well for short check-ins, quick skill practice, or when someone needs support between synchronous sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy routines and to try different ways of working until the best match is found.
