Greta Chambless, LPC

Greta Chambless is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Alabama who uses clear, practical methods to help people facing anxiety, depression, grief, and life transitions. She focuses on helping people regain momentum and reconnect with what matters when life feels overwhelming.

She draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Greta also uses client-centered techniques to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client leads the pace. Existential ideas are woven in to help people clarify values and life purpose when they feel stuck.

Greta has 18 years of experience working with a wide range of concerns including postpartum depression, ADHD, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and relationship tensions. She also addresses practical issues such as sleep, eating, career strain, caregiver stress, and compassion fatigue. Her approach aims to be straightforward and relatable rather than technical.

Sessions typically look like problem-focused conversations, practical skill building, and goal-setting. A session might include identifying thought patterns, trying new coping strategies, or planning steps toward a life change. Greta seeks to help people notice small shifts that build into lasting progress.

People who prefer a calm, collaborative partner in therapy may find her style a good fit. She helps clients set clear goals, track progress, and adjust plans when needed. The work is paced to each person’s needs and priorities.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Greta combines cognitive behavioral techniques with client-centered care to shape online work. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, panic, mood problems, and sleep or eating concerns. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and collaboration, giving clients space to set the pace and priorities in sessions. Existential ideas are sometimes used to examine life purpose, meaning, and values when people face big transitions or questions about direction.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Greta treats therapy as a collaboration and will help clients decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. Together they set goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what is helpful.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets clients and therapist see nonverbal cues and work in real time, while phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging offer brief, flexible check-ins and written tools for practicing skills between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and different life situations.
