About Terra
Dr. Terra Griffin is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 20 years of experience. She focuses on practical, down-to-earth work to help people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, anger, and changes that feel overwhelming.
She speaks plainly and supports clients as they take the first steps toward feeling better. Her approach centers on helping people notice what matters to them and take small, doable steps toward those values. She blends approaches that include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to teach skills for handling strong feelings.
Background and approach
Sessions often include learning to recognize thoughts, try new behaviors, and practice breathing and grounding techniques. Dr. Griffin also uses client-centered and attachment-based ideas to build trust and a steady relationship.
That steady relationship helps people talk through past hurts, guilt, shame, and issues like codependency or isolation. The work aims to restore a sense of control and clearer communication in everyday life. She has supported people dealing with caregiver stress, life transitions such as divorce or midlife changes, first responder and veteran concerns, and multicultural issues.
Her style is straightforward and collaborative: she helps clients name goals and pick tools that fit day-to-day life. Sessions are offered in English and include several remote formats so therapy can fit around work, caregiving, or other commitments. Dr.
Griffin focuses on helping people move from feeling stuck to finding practical ways to cope and grow.

Evidence-informed approaches for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small values-based actions. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and when strong emotions get in the way of everyday life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety and anger. It usually involves practical exercises and skill-building between sessions.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works with each client to match methods to their goals and preferences. That collaborative process means the plan can change as people try techniques and notice what helps most.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls let people use visual cues for deeper conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in works best. Live chat and text messaging support shorter updates, daily coaching, or follow-ups without scheduling a full call. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or travel.
