As a Master of Social Work–trained therapist, my experience in hospice and mental health has given me a deep appreciation for the challenges that come with grief, anxiety, and major life transitions. I work with adults ages 18+ and provide a warm, practical, and unhurried space where you can feel heard and supported. Together, we'll explore what's getting in the way of the life you want and identify meaningful steps toward change. My goal is to help you build resilience, find clarity, and move forward with confidence.

Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, or major life transitions begin to affect your daily well-being. You don't have to face those struggles alone. With over 25 years of clinical experience, I help adults find relief, build resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change in a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental environment.

For over 16 years I worked with individuals suffering from anxiety, grief and loss, and depression. We need a space to process, heal and maneuver through life transitions. If you want a neutral, validating and non judgmental safe space, Let’s Process is that place for you.

I provide a safe and validating space for all clients. Allowing clients to have a space to freely expressed themselves without judgement, while learning interventions and tools along the way.

Explore for yourself what happens when we process our feelings and embrace our healing journey.

I am a calm, welcoming social worker that strives to create a space for all of my clients to find their true selves and create a life that works best for them

I graduated with my Master’s degree in Social Work from the University of Akron in 2011 specializing in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and interpersonal relationships. Since that time I have worked in a variety of fields including community mental health services, foster care and adoption and in the schools. I am currently in my 5th year as a School Social Worker, where I service students Kindergarten through 12th grade. Starr Commonwealth Children of Trauma and Resilience Certification, a TRAILs School Partner that supports students with anxiety and depression, and IRRP Certified in Restorative Practices. I am experienced in Individual Education Plans, 504s as well as School Positive Behavior Intervention Plans to best support students with Autism, ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, and a variety of medical and behavioral needs.

Hi, I’m Dr. Tonya Griffith, a trauma-informed therapist who works with teens, adults, and couples navigating the effects of trauma. I help you make sense of how past experiences may be shaping your thoughts, emotions, and relationships today—without judgment.

Together, we focus on building practical coping skills, stability, and a stronger sense of control in your life. My approach is compassionate, straightforward, and centered on your growth. If you’re ready to start, feel free to call or email me.

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master of Social Work that is passionate about supporting women, teens, and those who are navigating trauma, depression, anxiety, family and relationship issues, low self-esteem, and life stressors. Perhaps you who have not felt like yourself or have not found your voice due to everyone else having a say about your life choices. I believe that healing begins in a space where you feel heard, understood, and genuinely supported. With nine years experience and through lived experience, my work focuses on helping you manage those concerns, as I have worked with multiple populations including children, teens, and adults.

I am a therapist who understands that everyone’s mind works differently. When you know your mind works differently from other people, you need a therapist whose mind works differently too. I have 15 years experience working with:

Neurodiverse folks (adhd, autism spectrum, sensory processing issues, AuDHD), animal people, grief and loss related to pets and people, menopause, elders, introverts, empaths, those experiencing social anxiety, isolation and/or loneliness, chronic health issues, life changes (including menopause) and life purpose. I also have experience working with the Native American community.

Being a "pre-elder", I've led many chapters of my life and have learned from every single one (even the cringey ones). It has taught me to focus on what is truly valuable and fulfilling and how to be comfortable just being me. I hope these things are cultivated in the therapeutic relationship with clients. My own neurospiciness allows me to connect with others that experience the world in a different way than neurotypical folks do, and my love for animals and kindness makes therapy with HSPs, empaths, introverts and animal people more connected as well.

Good therapy can change your life! In the decade that I've been a psychotherapist, I've accompanied my clients through breaking vicious cycles, reworking toxic patterns, and creating new habits that promote their flourishing. My advanced clinical training makes me especially effective working with clients who self-describe as perfectionists, people pleasers, over-functioning, and/or highly sensitive.

I hope my clients upon meeting me see that I am warm and welcoming and patient with their concerns and needs.

I hope they feel safe knowing I have 30 years in the field and will assist them in their journey with appropriate approaches to assist in reduction of symptoms and or learning more about who they are so they can navigate their life with better skills
