Thomas Grinnell is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in New York and Florida who brings a long history of work in the human services field. He has over 20 years of experience in human services and more than 12 years providing direct counseling and therapy to people facing depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, intellectual disabilities, trauma and stress, and other challenges that can make day-to-day functioning difficult.
Thomas uses a person-centered approach and combines that orientation with well-established methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy to help clients develop practical coping skills and manage symptoms.
He supports individuals dealing with a wide range of concerns, including stress, grief, addictions, LGBT-related issues, relationship and intimacy difficulties, parenting challenges, anger management, self-esteem problems, and coping with life changes.
Thomas holds a Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential, a qualification that reflects advanced training in clinical social work practice and clinical assessment. He welcomes contact from people who want to learn strategies for managing symptoms and navigating life’s challenges.
For many common concerns — including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and life transitions — online therapy can be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions. Research and experience indicate that virtual care works well for these kinds of issues and can help people progress toward their goals.
One clear benefit is flexibility. People can meet with their therapist in the format that suits them best - video calls, phone conversations, live chat, or in-app messaging. That flexibility makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep continuity of care when schedules change.
All therapists offering online services are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to switch providers if they are seeking a different therapeutic fit. For many individuals, the combination of accessibility and professional expertise makes online therapy a practical option for moving forward with mental health care.
