About Keena

Keena Grimes is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with 14 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, trauma, and self-esteem concerns. Keena creates a calm space where people can talk through what feels most urgent to them and feel respected while doing it.

She emphasizes practical steps alongside understanding. Sessions focus on figuring out what the person needs now while building on strengths they already have. Keena uses a trauma-informed, strength-based stance to help people gain insight and new skills that fit their life.

Work in sessions is direct and collaborative. Keena helps people learn coping strategies, practice communication skills, and try small changes that add up over time. She also addresses specific issues such as abandonment worries, infidelity and jealousy, blended family challenges, grief from divorce or separation, and parenting-related stress.

Keena brings attention to symptoms like panic attacks, postpartum depression, or mood disorders, and she helps people sort through guilt, shame, and forgiveness. Her approach balances emotional exploration with real-world tools for daily life. The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes.

She practices in Ohio and conducts therapy in English. Beginning therapy can feel hard, and Keena focuses on meeting each adult where they are and moving at a comfortable pace together.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online work

Keena uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and understanding. One common approach she uses helps people process trauma by identifying triggers, building coping skills, and creating safety plans so day-to-day life feels more manageable. Another approach emphasizes building strengths and skills such as emotion regulation, communication, and problem-solving to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression and to improve relationship interactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Keena will work together with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and pace. That collaborative decision helps make sessions feel relevant and doable from the start.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. Many people find online sessions helpful because they make it easier to fit counseling into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow for quicker check-ins when life gets busy. Therapists also adapt hands-on tools and homework for remote sessions so people can practice skills between meetings.
