Michelle Johnson

As a therapist that is licensed in professional counseling and addiction, My therapeutic work is with individuals who struggle with trauma, depression, anxiety and substance abuse issues. The individuals that I provide counseling services for are currently experiencing homelessness, job loss, death or illness of a love one, domestic violence, mid life crisis, parent child conflict, relationship issues, grief, and mental health issues, physical illness, self esteem, body imaging issues, stress, trauma, and abuse issues. I strongly believe in the person-centered approach because I believe that individuals should be able to make their own choices within their lives without judgement from others. The other modalities that are used are cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, person centered psychology and strength base approaches. I want individuals to know that if they choose to do counseling with me, it is a safe place to be themselves and they can speak about whatever they need to talk about without fear of being judged. I came into counseling knowing that everyone has a past and a story to tell, and everyone should be able to open up in their own time.
