Cherita Griffin, LPCC

Cherita Griffin is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) based in Ohio who helps people feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or emotionally worn down. She works with adults facing anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting stress, addiction, grief, and life changes. Her style aims to make therapy feel clear and practical instead of confusing or clinical.

Cherita draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to help people notice thoughts and habits that keep problems going. She also uses acceptance and commitment strategies and client-centered listening to help clients find what matters and build steps toward it. Mindfulness and dialectical skills are woven into sessions when they match a person's needs.

Sessions focus on small, reachable changes. Cherita helps people name what’s happening, try new ways of responding, and practice skills between meetings. She offers straightforward tools for coping, managing stress, and improving communication.

With eight years of professional experience as an LPCC, she brings both practical problem solving and gentle support to the work. Cherita balances evidence-informed methods with attention to each person’s story and strengths.

People who choose her often want hands-on techniques plus a space to process painful events without judgment. She aims to help clients move from merely surviving to feeling more capable, connected, and in control of daily life.

Using CBT, ACT, and client-centered care online

CBT helps people notice the thoughts and habits that keep problems going and teaches practical steps to change them. It often suits worries, low mood, unhelpful thinking, and everyday stress by breaking big problems into small, doable tasks.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on values and committed action. It teaches ways to make space for difficult feelings while moving toward what matters most. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and empathy so clients feel understood while deciding what changes to try.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust plans as needed. Clients are encouraged to share what helps and what doesn’t so the work stays practical and relevant.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face work for skill practice and deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief supports, daily coaching, skill reminders, and when someone prefers writing to talking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep working on goals between sessions.
