Therapists in San Francisco, CA

My name is Emily Johnson and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of California. I work with adults, specializing in relationship issues, grief, and managing anger. I use Emotionally Focused and Attachment Theory lenses to help you process pain and develop insight as well as incorporate Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Solution Focused techniques to help you develop skills. I understand that therapy is an investment and I want to work with you to develop meaningful goals so that you get what you want out of therapy.

When it comes to navigating life's challenges, I believe the best guidance comes from within. My role is to offer support and a safe space for my clients to process emotions and to uncover their own inner wisdom. Through getting in touch with these truths clients are able to realize healthier and happier lives and relationships. I am EFT Trained (Emotionally Focused Therapy) and also employ mindfulness based practices among other modalities - always tailoring to the specific needs of the client.

Do you feel as though your anxiety and depression are unmanageable? How about feelings of sadness, hopelessness, or helplessness like you’ve hit rock bottom and are struggling to find hope for tomorrow? Once we start to unravel the details of our past and trauma we give ourselves the ability to process feelings that we have long suppressed. I aim to collaborate with you and provide tools to decrease the challenging feelings you are currently facing and achieve a more integrated and balanced sense of self, leading to emotional healing and personal growth.

In the therapy session, I work to create a safe place to be our true, human selves—where both our worst and best qualities will in time be revealed. I work in the here-and-now: exploring your present concerns and goals more than your past history. I know that empathy promotes healing and ask for feedback to be sure my clients feel understood. I provide resources, tools and skills clients can use between sessions. I also work to help people learn self-compassion (see www.self-compassion.org), since that ability is necessary to heal and grow.
