Jermaine Johnson

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, but I believe that my life and vocational experiences have given me perspective that education alone cannot provide. These experiences made me open, understanding, creative, persevering, and more humble. I mean, who else do you know that's been a newspaper reporter, laborer, teacher, therapist, and security at the KY Derby?! Whether you are facing depression, anxiety, grief, relationship issues, a stage of life change, etc., refuge is possible.

I am a person-centered therapist. I use a Collaborative Approach and Narrative practices to lead conversations that are therapeutic in nature. In addition to therapeutic conversations, I implement other evidence based interventions as needed. These interventions can involve creative expression for those who are more inclined to express themselves artistically. I am not the expert on your life, but I can help steer your vehicle of self-discovery.

Therapy can have breakthroughs and aha moments. Therapy can also have challenges and setbacks. Working with me can make it possible to gain a higher level of understanding of yourself and others, and contribute to an improved sense of agency and control in your life. This work can also result in a greater capability to face challenges and achieve success. I will collaborate with you, and together we will create a safe space for you to explore yourself and find your power.
