Charles King
Hi there, I'm Sarika Griffin, a native Floridian who transplanted to Omaha, Nebraska, three years ago. I am a daughter, sister, niece, aunt, cousin, friend, survivor of sexual/dating violence, suicide attempt survivor, and dog mom who advocates for the voiceless—at the same time, changing the stigma of mental health care in the Black/African American community. I obtained a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of North Florida and a Master of Social Work from Florida State University. Is there something you are struggling to move past something? I empower clients to become the best version of themselves after a trauma. Together we can process these past experiences and get you to a new normal. I live by the philosophy of Lena Horne's words, "It's not the load that breaks you down; it's the way you carry it." My therapy style is empowering, warm, enthusiastic, direct, and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and take the first steps toward change. I am here to support you if you are ready to take that step.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, I will introduce myself to the client and allow them to open up about what brings them to therapy. We will focus on building rapport and learning more about each other. I will also complete a biopsychosocial and treatment plan in our first session.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I assist clients who have trauma-related issues and dual-diagnosis by using cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), internal family systems (IFS), mindfulness, attachment-based therapy, and somatic therapy. I have great success helping patients work through trauma and get to their new normal.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I have ten-plus years of experience working with survivors of interpersonal and sexual violence as well as dual-diagnosis disorders. My ideal client would be someone who has experienced trauma or attachment-related matters and is ready to unpack those issues to become healthier. It's working with BIPOC individuals who have experienced trauma related to oppression, racism, generation trauma, self-esteem, and other issues that create stress. In addition, LGBTQA+ populations need support in finding themselves because of trauma and empowering others to be the best version of themselves, increasing self-worth, and setting firm boundaries.
