Christian Figueroa-Johnson

Are you someone who has spent much of your life being strong for everyone else—caring for others, holding things together, and continuing to move forward even when you feel overwhelmed? Maybe somewhere along the way, you’ve lost touch with yourself or found yourself struggling with anxiety, depression, past trauma, grief, relationship challenges, or your own sense of self-worth.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor who works with adults and adolescents to better understand the experiences, emotions, and patterns that may be affecting their lives and relationships. I believe meaningful healing begins with greater self-awareness and understanding. My approach is warm, compassionate, trauma-informed, and collaborative, while also providing the support and gentle challenge needed for growth. Together, we can work toward healthier boundaries, stronger relationships, greater self-worth, and lasting change that helps you feel more grounded, confident, and connected to the life you want to create.

I believe therapy is about more than managing symptoms—it’s about understanding yourself, recognizing the patterns that keep recurring, and learning to respond differently. My approach is warm, conversational, and collaborative, while still challenging you to grow and see things from a new perspective. Together, we’ll explore how your experiences, relationships, thoughts, and emotions have shaped where you are today, while building practical tools to help you move forward. I also welcome conversations around purpose, spirituality, identity, and becoming more aligned with the person you want to be when those areas are meaningful to you.

Our first session is really about getting to know you—not just what brought you to therapy, but who you are and what you want for yourself moving forward. I create a comfortable, judgment-free space where you can talk openly, ask questions, and simply be yourself. Together, we’ll identify what feels most important to work on and begin creating goals that make sense for your life. My hope is that you leave our first session feeling heard, supported, and confident that you don’t have to figure everything out on your own.
