About Clare

Clare Grey is a licensed independent social worker with 18 years of clinical experience supporting adults across a range of healthcare and community settings. She has worked in hospitals dealing with chronic illness, oncology, psychiatry and trauma, and has provided counseling in both inpatient and outpatient environments.

Background and approach

Her practice emphasizes practical strategies for coping with life transitions, anxiety, depression and adjustment-related stress. Clare draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside attachment-informed and client-centered approaches to tailor care to each person’s needs.

She also uses motivational techniques and elements of solution-focused work when appropriate, aiming to help clients set realistic goals and build sustainable skills. Her background includes supporting people facing caregiving and end-of-life concerns, blended family dynamics, addiction issues, communication problems and the emotional impacts of serious medical conditions.

With a grounded, collaborative style, Clare works to help clients identify patterns, develop coping skills and move toward clearer priorities and improved daily functioning. She practices in Ohio and conducts sessions in English, offering a blend of evidence-informed methods and compassionate clinical experience.

Integrating evidence-based approaches into online care

Clare commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and practice concrete skills for managing anxiety, depression and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy is also part of her repertoire, focusing on how early and current relationship patterns influence emotional responses and interpersonal challenges, which can be useful for improving communication and connection.

Finding the right method is a collaborative process. Clare works with each person to explore which approaches match their goals, preferences and life circumstances, adjusting techniques over time to better fit what the client finds most helpful.

Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, her online practice provides flexible ways to engage in therapy around work, family and health commitments. These formats allow for ongoing skill practice, check-ins between sessions and easier scheduling while maintaining the therapeutic focus on measurable steps and personal priorities.
