My name is Mary Johnson, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I have worked with various populations and age groups and have a diverse background, including specializing in helping individuals navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions.
I have a positive and holistic approach to therapy. I believe in creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts and emotions freely. My empathetic but direct and client-focused style allows me to connect with individuals from diverse backgrounds, providing support that is both personalized and evidence-based. Finding balance in life is essential. Utilizing a person-centered, trauma-informed approach and integrating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness techniques can help emphasize balance and support individuals in their healing journey.
My clients typically tell me how easy it was for them to open up and express themselves to me. Building rapport is essential for effective counseling because it establishes trust, comfort, and openness, which is why it is my number one goal in my sessions with my clients. I prioritize a relationship based on trust and respect, and respect your pace and comfort level.
