Hi, I'm Heather Johnson, a faith centered Christian therapist passionate about creating a safe and supportive space where healing, growth, and restoration can take place. I have over 5 years of experience and my approach to therapy is rooted in compassion, grace and meeting each person exactly where they are in their journey. I work with individuals and families to navigate life's challenges, build resilience, and develop practical tools for lasting emotional wellness. Guided by the belief that healing and restoration are possible through faith, hope and connection, I strive to reflect God's love by offering a space of understanding, encouragement, and support. It is an honor to walk alongside my clients as they move toward healing, clarity, and peace.
Welcome—I’m glad you’re here. Choosing to seek support is an act of courage, and your future self will thank you for showing yourself kindness today. My name is Renee. I graduated from University of Southern California School of Social Work in 2014. I specialize in working with individuals carrying the weight of significant trauma, addictions, unresolved grief, and painful life experiences that can feel isolating or overwhelming. I support those who struggle with trust after unhealthy relationships, major life transitions, or who have turned to alcohol or other substances to cope with emotional pain.
I also work with individuals healing from addiction, substance use, and mental health challenges, and I have experience supporting military families as they navigate the unique barriers of having a loved one in the military, as well as serving Veterans. My goal is to offer a supportive space for healing, connection, and meaningful change.
A former client called me "endlessly chill." I am known to wear more sweatshirts than more "professional" attire. I don't want to give off any energy that I am better than anyone who sits across from me. I am known to swear in sessions (but I do filter this per client).
I provide treatment for high functioning anxiety, stress, worry, overthinking, perfectionism, self-criticism, overwhelm, procrastination, imposter syndrome, low self-worth, burn-out, ADHD and relationship stress. I understand that life's challenges can sometimes become overwhelming, and seeking support is a courageous step toward achieving balance and well-being. I am here to support you with your personal growth and emotional healing. Julie looks forward to helping you discover your inner resilience and empower you for positive change.
With over 25 years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating grief and loss, life transitions, chronic illness, trauma (including first responders), aging-related concerns, and members of the agricultural and farming communities.
I provide telehealth services across multiple states, I’m here to support you on your journey toward healing and growth.

Throughout my career, I have worked with adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief and loss, chronic illness, relationship stress, women's issues, life transitions, and trauma. I also have specialized experience supporting frontline workers and individuals impacted by medical trauma.
Hi, I’m so glad you’re here. I am originally from Chicago, and I bring both my lived experience and professional training into the work I do. I attended the University of Michigan Ann Arbor for undergraduate and graduate schools.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Lansing
Searching for therapists in Lansing starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want help with. You may be looking for support with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or major life transitions. As you compare Lansing therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and details about what sessions are like. A bio can help you understand whether a therapist’s training and style match your needs before you book.
Lansing has a smaller local therapy market than larger Michigan cities, so your best fit may be in Lansing, East Lansing, or available through virtual appointments. Some people prefer meeting in an office, while others choose virtual care for more scheduling options. As you narrow your search, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles closely can also show how a therapist communicates, structures sessions, and works with concerns like counseling, couples support, or family stress.
Therapy in Lansing can be a significant expense without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway makes it easier to find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, with many accepting new patients and offering clear cost estimates before you book. You can search for therapy in Lansing, MI, review therapist bios, compare virtual and in-person options, and book directly when you’re ready.
