About Greta

Greta Chambless is an Alabama Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 18 years of experience helping adults who feel stuck or overwhelmed. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and other life changes common in early adulthood.

She focuses on practical conversations. Sessions look at what is happening day to day and glass-half-full and glass-half-empty thinking that gets in the way. Greta uses client-centered methods to listen and reflect, and she draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.

Greta also brings existential ideas into sessions to address questions about meaning, purpose, and direction. That can help when someone feels adrift after school, a job change, or a major life transition. She talks through what matters most and what small steps might move things forward.

Her work covers a wide range of concerns including stress, ADHD, parenting strain, eating and sleeping problems, and trauma and abuse. She also supports people dealing with career pressure, compassion fatigue, and issues linked to aging or caregiving.

Greta asks questions and reflects observations rather than lecturing. She helps people set short-term goals and test simple changes between sessions. The aim is clearer thinking and more manageable next steps rather than quick fixes.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions can help

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience. The therapist reflects what she hears and helps people clarify their feelings and priorities. This approach is useful for those who want a conversational, supportive setting to figure things out.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going. It breaks issues into small, testable steps such as tracking patterns, trying small behavior changes, and reviewing results. CBT can be helpful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and managing stress in day-to-day life.

Existential Therapy brings questions about meaning and purpose into practical conversation. It helps when someone feels directionless after major life changes such as leaving school, changing jobs, or shifting relationships. These ideas help people weigh values and make clearer decisions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Greta will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences. That often means starting with listening, agreeing on a small goal, and adjusting methods as progress is seen.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm current session options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist about what will best fit your routine and goals.
