About Maria
Maria Grimshaw-Clark is a licensed clinical social worker with 34 years of experience helping people who are overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship strain. She works directly with individuals to reduce symptoms and build clearer ways of coping. Her style is practical and straightforward, aimed at small changes that add up over time.
She draws on client-centered work to put the person’s goals first. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps her clients reframe unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy and mindfulness practices are used when emotion regulation and stress tolerance are central concerns.
Maria has spent much of her career focused on family mental health and systems theory. That background shapes how she looks at relationship patterns and family roles. She also uses the Gottman Method tools when couples want to improve communication and reduce conflict.
Typical sessions include talking through current struggles, practicing new coping skills, and planning small experiments to test different responses in daily life. She helps people notice old habits and replace them with alternatives that fit their goals.
