About Maria
Maria Grimshaw-Clark is a licensed clinical social worker with 34 years of experience helping people who feel stuck by worry, low mood, or relationship strain. She focuses on practical steps that make day-to-day life easier. The first meeting looks at what matters most and sets simple, manageable goals.
Maria uses plain conversation to help people replace old coping habits with new ones that fit their life. She draws on client-centered work to listen and follow each person’s priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used to spot unhelpful thinking and try small behavior changes.
Her background includes long experience with relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, and mood concerns such as depression and bipolar issues. She also addresses issues like attachment, codependency, blended family stresses, and caregiver strain. That experience informs how she helps people untangle patterns that cause pain.
Sessions mix talking with practical tools and mindfulness practices. She often brings exercises to rebuild communication, manage strong emotions, or reduce anxiety. The goal is clearer thinking and better day-to-day choices rather than labels or quick fixes.
