Dr. Johnson is bilingual (Spanish and English) and a Board-certified psychiatrist. She is welcoming new patients seeking professional help for anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, OCD, PTSD, ADHD and other mental health concerns. With medical education at UCLA and specialty training at the University of Pennsylvania, she combines knowledge of psychopharmacology with a nuanced understanding of patients' concerns and experiences with medications. She is particularly cognisant of therapeutic inertia, and works with her patients to ensure that medications are effective and not over-used.
In providing treatment, Dr. Johnson understands that everyone's needs are unique depending on their particular biology, life experiences, and current stage in life. She is honored to journey together with her patients as they find the balance between acceptance and change, and as they make their way in healing, peace and feeling better.
We all deserve to spend time cultivating our mental and emotional wellbeing. Dr. Johnson's contribution to your healing lies in familiarity with research. She is committed to staying abreast of advances in her field, and communicating evidence-based recommendations with her patients in a practical and easily digestible way, always with transparency and care.
