Jacqueline Johnson

I believe in tailoring the therapeutic space to meet a client’s unique needs.

Anxiety, stress, depression, interpersonal conflicts, and grief can rule our lives; leaving us feeling exhausted, hopeless, broken, and trapped. I am here to tell you that you are not broken, there is hope, and you are worthy of love. You deserve to live a life that leaves you excited to wake up every morning. I am passionate about using a strengths-based and collaborative approach in order to help my clients achieve personal growth and healing. Beginning therapy can be intimidating as it takes a great deal of courage to be vulnerable with someone. My commitment to my clients is to provide a compassionate and nonjudgmental space for them to reach their goals.

I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults in community-based and private practice settings addressing issues with anxiety, depression, personality disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorders, low self-esteem, trauma, grief and loss, life transitions, family conflict, and Autism Spectrum Disorders. I believe life is too short to feel defeated. It is my goal for you to be free of emotional pain, able to cope with life’s stressors, and to find meaning in your career, relationships, spirituality, and even in your suffering. Let’s work together to help you discover your inner strength to overcome your challenges and be the best version of yourself you can be.
