"You're killing it professionally but anxiety hijacks your confidence. Childhood trauma resurfaces during big presentations. Family obligations drain you. Perfectionism keeps you up at night." "My CBT/DBT practice equips high-functioning Individuals with tools to interrupt these cycles. We'll build emotional regulation, challenge imposter syndrome, and create boundaries that honor your ambition AND well-being."

Hi, I'm Cherita Griffin, LPCC-S, a trauma-informed therapist dedicated to creating a safe, honest space where you can finally breathe and be believed without over-explaining your struggles. With expertise in evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and somatic practices, I specialize in helping adults and teens untangle anxiety, depression, trauma responses, and relational wounds at your pace, honoring your unique story, values, and culture.

My practice slows things down to uncover what's fueling your overwhelm, then equips you with practical, real-life tools: noticing emotions without judgment, setting guilt-free boundaries, rewiring unhelpful thought patterns, and regulating your nervous system to escape survival mode. I show up warm, direct, and non-judgmental, bringing structure and expertise while you share your lived experience. We collaborate on clear, measurable goals, regularly check progress, and adjust as needed.

Whether you're exhausted by racing "what ifs," heavy replays of the past, or shame that feels too big to name, I've walked alongside hundreds toward relief. My aim? You leave sessions, and live life, feeling more grounded, hopeful, and confident handling what comes. Ready to reclaim your emotional toolkit? I'd love to hear your story.
