How Deaetta works
Conversations are guided by what is most helpful day to day, such as coping skills, improving confidence, or addressing career concerns. Dr. Grinnage holds a PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision and has seven years of professional experience.
She also works as a professor at a research-focused university, which keeps her connected to current thinking in counseling and education. Her credential is LPC, licensed in Georgia. People often come to her for a mix of issues: stress, grief, trauma and abuse, compassion fatigue, ADHD, anger, or relationship and intimacy-related concerns.
She also helps with attachment issues, communication problems, life purpose, multicultural concerns, and reactions to prejudice and discrimination. Sessions can be arranged as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

Online support options
Client-centered care for online therapy
Dr. Grinnage uses client-centered therapy as her main approach. That means she focuses on understanding the person's perspective and follows their lead when setting goals and priorities. This style is useful for stress, anxiety, self-esteem issues, and navigating life changes because it builds on what each person already knows about themselves.Her background in counselor education and supervision means she pairs listening with practical planning. Together the client and therapist decide which topics to address and which skills to practice. Figuring out the right approach is collaborative and can shift as needs and goals change over time.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls are helpful when visual cues matter, phone sessions can work well with lower bandwidth or for shorter check-ins, and chat or messaging can fit into a busy day without needing to be on camera. These options help people fit therapy into work, school, or caregiving schedules and make it easier to continue care when life gets busy.
