Therapists in Bowerston, OH

I am a marriage and family therapist with 9 years of experience counseling a wide range of clients. I have worked with clients on grief and loss, depression and anxiety as well as substance abuse concerns. I take a warm approach with clients and use a client centered approach to therapy. I have been trained in cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavioral therapy and approach the sessions in a collaborative manner always working together with people I am working with. I respect that you took this step to seek out a listening ear and I look forward to working together with you on this journey. I was born in New York and as a young child my family moved out to Los Angeles and I have been here ever since. Growing up I was always fascinated by the field of psychology and when I was going for my Bachelors Degree I therefore choose to major in psychology. I attended Touro College Los Angeles for my Bachelors degree and then pursued my Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy through Touro University Worldwide. When working with clients I take a warm and empathetic approach and really try to hear what the client is saying. Therapy can be very rewarding but it is often challenging to talk about the difficulties that we face. In session I strive to create a supportive and safe space where we can work together mindfully and without judgement to increase wellness. Thank you for taking the time to look over my profile. I look forward to working together!

Hello, I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker with Supervisory Designation (LISW-S). I have over 10 yrs of direct mental health experience. I am grounded in a commitment to social justice, personal well-being, and the development of the whole person. I focus on depression, anxiety, stress, life changes and parenting (especially for those who care for individuals w/special needs). Typical areas of concern are emotional well-being, managing stress, relationship or family issues, identifying/exploring patterns and making desired changes. I work with clients through the process of becoming healthy individuals, offering them a place to receive both nurture and compassionate challenge.

Autonomy is the process of doing something by one’s own decision or initiative. 2) Competence - Providing high quality, professional counseling services provided by a qualified LISW-S. 3) Effectiveness - A commitment to on-going education. It is knowing, understanding and implementing the best treatment practices available, practicing within my areas of expertise, and referring clients to other resources whenever it is in their best interest. 4) Integrity - Upholding a professional ethic regarding respect, privacy and confidentiality. 5) Respect & Diversity - Recognizing all aspects of our humanity and honor that all of these aspects remain salient to every life.

If I could write a letter to my younger self, I would tell her this: You are not broken. You are responding to what you’ve been through. And one day, your healing will become someone else’s hope. Hi, I’m Cherita Griffin, MS, LPCC-S, NCC, CYT, SEL-F, C-DBT, CMIP, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with Supervisory Endorsement who has spent over 20 years supporting people through mental health challenges. I’m a trauma-informed therapist who deeply understands that healing is not just clinical… it’s personal. I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and a Master’s in Applied Behavioral Analysis, complemented by a Bachelor’s in Criminal Justice with a concentration in Forensic Psychology. I’m also a Certified Yoga Teacher (CYT), Social Emotional Learning Facilitator (SEL-F), Certified Dialectical Behavior Therapist (C-DBT), and Certified Mindfulness Informed Professional (CMIP), allowing me to integrate both evidence-based practices and holistic approaches into the work we do together. I specialize in helping individuals who feel overwhelmed, stuck, emotionally exhausted, or disconnected from themselves find their way back to clarity, confidence, and peace. Many of my clients come to me struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, and low self-worth, often feeling like they “know what to do,” but can’t quite apply it to their own lives. In our work together, we don’t just talk, we gently uncover, process, and rebuild with a compassionate, real, and non-judgmental space. This is a place where: • You don’t have to have it all together • You don’t have to carry everything alone • You can finally exhale Healing is not about becoming someone new, it’s about returning to who you were before life taught you to shrink, question yourself, or survive in silence. You deserve to feel whole, worthy, and at peace.

I began my career as a licensed music therapist in 2003, and after working with clients for several years I realized I wanted to do more.

My therapy style is non-judgmental, caring and interactive. I strive to be as transparent as possible and am a firm believer that the therapeutic relationship is paramount in the process of healing and growth. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I take the responsibility of seeing beyond labels very seriously. My approach is always steered by having a client-centered approach, and my therapeutic style combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic and rational-emotive therapy. I believe that listening to everyone about what they need from therapy and what their goals are is crucial. I view therapy, including treatment planning, as a collaborative effort to meet each individual's unique and specific needs. There is not a "one size fits all" approach to therapy - I want to meet you where you are at on your journey and walk beside you to achieve happiness, fulfillment, and peace.
