Chloe Johnson

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 9.5 mi away • Riverview, FL


Everyone deserves a space where they feel heard, valued, and empowered to grow. As a licensed mental health therapist, I’m dedicated to creating that space for my clients, fostering a journey of healing and transformation.

Originally from the Midwest, I found my heart and home in Florida when I moved here for school in 2014. The sunshine, warm community, and opportunities to grow professionally made me stay! When I’m not working, I love spending time with friends and family—movie nights, game nights, and afternoons at the park with my nephew are some of my favorite ways to recharge and stay connected.

With over five years of experience, I’ve worked closely with children, adolescents, young adults, and families to address a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, PTSD, grief, sexual trauma, childhood trauma, self-esteem struggles, bullying, and LGBTQ+ issues. I also have experience supporting individuals with autism, antisocial personality disorder, and schizophrenia.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Lithia

Finding the right therapist in Lithia starts with getting clear on the type of support you need. Whether you're looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, family stress, or something else, a licensed provider with experience in that area can make a meaningful difference. Therapists in the Lithia area hold a range of credentials — including LMHC, LCSW, LMFT, and psychologist — and many offer both in-person sessions in nearby Brandon or Valrico and virtual appointments from anywhere in Florida.

Once you know what you're looking for, practical details matter just as much. Consider whether you prefer meeting in person or virtually, what days and times work for your schedule, and whether a provider's approach feels like the right fit. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you understand their style and specialties so you feel more confident from the start.

Therapy in the greater Tampa Bay area can be expensive without insurance, but affordable options are available when you use in-network coverage. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a therapist in Lithia who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
