About Janna
Janna Griffin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 25 years of experience across private practice and public education. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting and family issues, and other life challenges younger adults often face. Sessions are grounded in practical tools and goal-focused work.
Griffin draws on several well-known approaches to guide therapy. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are used for emotion regulation and handling intense feelings. Attachment-based ideas and emotionally-focused work inform how she looks at relationship patterns.
Her background includes many years working in schools as well as in clinic settings, so she is familiar with pressures around college, first jobs, and family expectations. She often helps people navigate life changes, career stress, sleep problems, and the fallout from trauma or grief. She also addresses ADHD, anger, compassion fatigue, and caregiver stress.
In sessions she emphasizes practical steps - simple strategies you can try between meetings, plus ways to track progress. She blends structured techniques with open conversation to figure out what helps in everyday life. Sessions aim to be straightforward and paced to the client’s goals.

How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how they shape feelings and responses; it can help with intimacy struggles, family conflict, and attachment issues. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, clarifying a person's goals, and letting the client guide the pace of change; it helps when someone needs space to sort priorities and values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with practical exercises and homework; it is useful for anxiety, sleep problems, and mood concerns.Picking the right mix of approaches is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their goals and current life demands. That process means trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together.
The therapist's biography does not state which online formats she uses, so confirm current 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. They can also allow someone to use video or phone based on what works best for focus, bandwidth, or comfort. Ask about specific session formats during the initial scheduling step to match the logistics to everyday life.
