I am so glad you are here! If you're seeking a therapist who will share your tears, laughter, and validate your experiences while supporting you through the complexities of this anxious world, then you've found the perfect match in me. I describe my therapeutic approach as akin to finding your way back home—a sanctuary where you can feel safe, nurture your growth, and embark on your healing journey. Grounded in the firm belief that my role as a therapist is to truly understand, see, hear, and guide my clients, I'm committed to helping you heal your deepest wounds during our time together.

You are stressed with your personal life, relationships, or work and feel like you haven't tapped into your true potential. My name is Kirk Johnson and I'm a Licensed Counselor/Therapist. My clients typically start therapy to improve their stress/anxiety management, interpersonal relationships, identity exploration, self-confidence, and trauma response. Often times, clients need to go deeper to find meaning in their past and present experiences and the narratives they tell themselves. These crucial conversations can help stabilize big feelings, and build inner strength.

Relationship struggles, feeling stuck, overwhelmed, stressed, or dealing with life challenges, can be painful and hold us back. As we work together, you will gain the necessary insight and skills to navigate these dificulties and unlock your full potential. My professional background consists mostly treating people who have experienced trauma -big or small- and addressing the different ways it shows up: anxiety, depression, low self esteem and attention issues, among other personal struggles.

It takes courage to acknowledge that we may need support, to confront the patterns that may be holding us back, and to embark on a journey of self-exploration. Whether you are looking to heal from unresolved trauma or seeking space to re-prioritize your life and goals, I will meet you where you are and help guide you to where you desire to be. I am passionate about partnering with and empowering clients to gain insight, develop healthy coping mechanisms, and foster personal growth. I offer a compassionate environment for individuals seeking to reclaim their lives, build resilience, and achieve overall well-being.

Healing is more than fixing what's broken—it's about creating a life that truly resonates with you.

Whether it's exploring your history, envisioning future goals, or tuning into the wisdom of your body and emotions, I understand your journey is unique. Join me as we work towards unlocking a more meaningful and purposeful life tailored just for you.

Helping people reach their personal goals is one of the most rewarding parts of my work as a therapist. I believe that we carry the means of healing and growth within us. Therefore, you as the client will choose the direction of therapy. Many times, we just need some help listening to ourselves, clarifying our goals, and choosing the means to reach them. I see myself as a guide and resource on your journey; you decide where we are going and I do everything I can to help you get there. The sessions and course of treatment will be as structured or free-flowing as you decide.
