Clarinda Squires

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Georgia with experience providing therapy and behavioral health assessments for children, adolescents, and adults. I work with individuals and families navigating trauma, family conflict, DFCS involvement, and other high-stress situations. I specialize in helping clients who feel overwhelmed or stuck build emotional regulation, improve communication, and develop practical coping strategies. My approach is grounded, direct, and focused on real-life change using evidence-based methods.

My approach to therapy is grounded, direct, and practical. I work collaboratively with clients to understand patterns, build emotional regulation skills, and develop strategies that can be applied in real-life situations. I integrate evidence-based approaches, depending on each client’s needs. I focus on helping clients move beyond surface-level coping and make meaningful, sustainable changes while feeling supported and not judged.

In our first session, you can expect a calm, structured conversation focused on understanding what brought you to therapy and what you want to change. I’ll ask questions to get a clear picture of your current concerns, history, and goals, while also giving you space to share at your own pace. Together, we’ll begin identifying patterns and areas to focus on, and I’ll outline how we can move forward in a way that feels manageable and realistic. My goal is to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard while also leaving with clarity about next steps.
