About Cherita
Cherita Griffin is an Ohio-based licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) who helps people feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or emotionally exhausted find practical ways forward. She speaks plainly and offers a steady presence for those dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship strain, codependency, and life transitions.
Cherita emphasizes healing that feels personal rather than purely clinical. Sessions focus on identifying what gets in the way, trying small changes, and building skills that fit everyday life. She aims to help clients reconnect with their sense of worth and calm, one step at a time.
With eight years working as an LPCC, Cherita blends several therapeutic methods to match each person’s needs. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and cognitive-behavioral ideas to change unhelpful patterns, client-centered listening to make space for emotion, and mindfulness-based practices to build steady attention and self-awareness.
Her approach is collaborative and practical. Clients can expect clear options, short exercises to try between sessions, and relatable conversations about what is actually happening in daily life. The work often covers stress, grief, parenting strains, career concerns, addiction struggles, and issues tied to family of origin.
People who want a compassionate, down-to-earth therapist who also uses evidence-informed tools may find her style helpful. Those interested in starting are encouraged to use the site process to match and schedule a first visit.
How therapy approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without getting ruled by them and then commit to actions that match their values; it is often useful for anxiety, depression, and codependency struggles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers practical skills to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with stress, mood, and coping during life transitions. Mindfulness-based practices teach simple attention and grounding exercises to reduce reactivity and build steadier focus, supporting trauma recovery and everyday stress management.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cherita aims to learn about a person’s goals and preferences, then try methods together to see what fits. That collaborative process means approaches can shift over time based on what helps most.
Confirm the specific online session options before booking, as formats are set by the therapist. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people use audio-only options if video is difficult. These practical benefits often make it simpler to keep momentum between sessions while working on tangible skills and insight.
