About Paulette

Paulette Griffin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia with 25 years of work across inpatient and clinical settings. She offers both individual and group therapy and draws on long experience supporting people through relationship and family challenges. Paulette focuses on practical help for issues like parenting, grief, trauma and abuse, anger, and depression.

She also addresses career concerns, self-esteem, communication problems, veteran and armed forces issues, and personality disorder-related difficulties.

Background and approach

Her approach treats each person as the expert on their own life. She looks for strengths that clients already have and builds on them. Sessions tend to focus on setting realistic steps and finding supports that fit day-to-day life.

Paulette emphasizes collaboration and clear, direct guidance. When more services are needed she helps connect people with community resources and makes referrals to other professionals. She also runs group therapy when that format suits someone’s needs.

Paulette frames change as a courageous choice and offers steady, practical support along the way. Her background in both inpatient and outpatient care gives her familiarity with a range of mental health needs and treatment settings. She aims to help people move toward more satisfying relationships and healthier coping with life changes.

The work is focused, grounded, and aimed at helping clients find workable solutions.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Paulette uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide her work. One common approach focuses on strength-based problem solving, which helps clients identify practical steps and supports they can use at home. This approach is useful for parenting challenges, relationship tensions, and coping with life changes. Another approach emphasizes trauma-informed care, which aims to create pacing and safety for people processing past harm while teaching tools for managing intense emotions. That can help with trauma, grief, and anger-related issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Paulette collaborates with clients to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and pace. She adjusts plans over time and refers to other professionals when additional services would help.

Online therapy is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexible access. These formats allow scheduling around family and work responsibilities and make it easier to join sessions from home. The variety of options supports different comfort levels and communication preferences, making it simpler to keep therapy consistent while managing a busy life.
