About Cherita

Cherita Griffin is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) practicing in Ohio who helps people navigate pregnancy and childbirth related stress alongside a wide range of life challenges. She focuses on guiding individuals who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or emotionally drained toward clearer thinking and greater calm. Her style is warm and straightforward, with an emphasis on practical steps that fit everyday life.

Cherita draws on methods that teach skills people can use between sessions. Sessions often include mindful exercises, attention to values and goals, and tools to shift unhelpful thinking and behavior. She places priority on listening first, then building plans together that feel realistic and doable.

Her background includes eight years in clinical practice as an LPCC in Ohio. Cherita has worked with people facing anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related concerns, parenting strain, and relationship or communication problems. She also addresses issues such as body image, abandonment, adoption and foster care concerns, caregiver stress, and codependency.

In sessions she blends acceptance-focused work with skill-based approaches to manage emotions and reduce avoidance. The aim is to help people move toward what matters to them while coping with hard feelings along the way. She encourages steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Practical coaching around career stress, coping with life changes, and recovery from addictive patterns is also part of her work. If someone is looking for a therapist who listens closely, offers clear tools, and treats healing as a gradual, personal process, Cherita may be a good match.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking small actions that move a person toward those values while learning to live with difficult emotions. It is useful for clients feeling stuck or overwhelmed by change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical strategies to reduce anxiety and depressive patterns. It is often helpful for managing worry, mood shifts, and unhelpful thinking.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to decide which methods fit their goals and daily life. That process can include trying different tools and adjusting plans based on what helps most.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy routine, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. The original biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people find remote work helpful for maintaining consistency and using skills between sessions while juggling parenting, medical appointments, and work demands.
