About Greta

Greta Chambless is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people navigate hard seasons in life. She frames therapy around understanding what matters to each person and finding practical steps to feel more like themselves again. Many people come to her for help with anger, anxiety, depression, grief, and major life transitions.

Greta uses a straightforward, collaborative style. She listens without judgment and helps clients clarify goals. Sessions often include talking through current problems, identifying patterns, and trying small experiments to build momentum.

Her approach draws on client-centered work that centers the person's own values and experience, cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thinking and behavior, and existential ideas that look at meaning and purpose. This mix is aimed at making everyday decisions feel more doable and reducing repeated cycles of stress and frustration.

She has 18 years of experience in counseling and has worked with people facing mood disorders, trauma and abuse, parenting stress, ADHD, and compassion fatigue among other concerns. Greta also supports issues around intimacy, eating and sleeping, career questions, and aging-related stress.

Greta practices in Alabama and conducts sessions in English. To start, visitors use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule based on the therapist's availability.

How Greta’s approaches translate to online work

Greta uses client-centered methods that focus on each person’s values and experience, helping people bring what matters most into current choices and goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and try small, testable changes that reduce distress. Existential therapy looks at meaning and purpose, helping people clarify what they want life to feel like and make decisions that align with those aims.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Greta will talk with the person about their concerns, goals, and preferences and together decide which methods to emphasize. Sessions can shift over time as needs change, and she works to keep the plan practical and tied to daily life.

The therapist’s specific session formats are not listed here, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for different kinds of check-ins such as shorter conversations when time is tight. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework for use between meetings so progress continues outside of session.
