Stephanie Griffin, LMHC

Stephanie Griffin is a Florida licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 10 years of professional experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and effects of trauma and abuse. Stephanie also focuses on issues tied to family of origin such as attachment concerns, abandonment, adoption and foster care questions, and blended family stress.

She uses practical, talk-based methods to help people notice how old patterns affect their day-to-day life. Sessions focus on identifying repeating roles and expectations learned in childhood and testing new ways of relating and communicating. Stephanie blends client-centered listening with clear, goal-focused techniques to help sort out what feels most urgent.

Her approach includes cognitive behavioral strategies to challenge distressing thoughts and EMDR for processing past events when appropriate. She also draws on existential ideas to address meaning, responsibility, and choices people feel stuck by. Sessions are conversational and paced to the client's comfort.

Stephanie has worked in Florida settings for a decade and brings experience with grief, relationship communication problems, caregiver stress, and recovery from domestic violence and separation. She often supports people wrestling with co-occurring issues such as mood concerns and attachment-related difficulties.

Clients start by clarifying what they want to change and setting short-term goals. Treatment tends to mix reflective conversation, practical exercises, and when needed, trauma-focused processing. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking.
