About Cherita
Cherita Griffin is an LPCC who helps people feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, and life changes. She speaks plainly and creates a calm space where clients can talk through what’s happening now and find practical steps forward. Cherita focuses on making therapy feel usable.
Sessions often include clear tools for managing worry, skills for emotional regulation, and short exercises to try between meetings. She aims to help people build steady routines that reduce daily stress and increase confidence.
Background and approach
Her background includes eight years working as a licensed professional clinical counselor in Ohio. That practical experience informs how she organizes sessions and tailors techniques to each person’s needs. She draws on several approaches to meet different kinds of problems rather than using the same plan for everyone.
People typically bring concerns like anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship stress, parenting strain, grief, career questions, or struggles with self-worth. Cherita also addresses issues such as body image, codependency, caregiving stress, and challenges tied to adoption or blended families. In sessions she combines talking, simple skills practice, and mindfulness work so people leave with tangible strategies.
The focus is on small changes that add up over time. Cherita encourages collaboration on goals and regularly checks that work fits each person’s life and schedule.
How online sessions use skills and mindfulness
Cherita often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that match their values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life changes when avoidance has become a default response.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a hands-on method that helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with more helpful behaviors. CBT is practical for managing worry, low mood, and problem-solving daily challenges.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and try methods that fit the client’s needs and preferences. This collaborative process helps tailor sessions so techniques feel relevant and doable.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for fuller conversation and real-time exercises, phone can work when bandwidth is low or a quick check-in is needed, and chat or messaging lets people get short support or practice skills between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and sustain momentum between meetings.
