Jamestown, NC 27282
Taking the step to start therapy can be difficult and filled with mixed emotions; everybody deserves the best chance in the game of life.I'm here to help you play the cards you've been dealt-just with a little more intention and strategy. I am a LCMHC, CRC, and a facilitator for MHFA. My years of experience providing individual, child/couple/family, and completing various psychological assessments allows me to keep my focus on my client, their needs, and the ebbs and flows of life. It is my hope to help the person's life become more manageable, instead of life managing the person.

India N. Johnson
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, MSW, LCSW

Jamestown, NC 27282
My work is trauma informed and I draw from multiple evidence based frameworks including EMDR and self-compassion.
You may be used to holding everything together for everyone else while quietly feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or alone. Maybe you’re navigating anxiety, depression, chronic stress, trauma, or life changes that feel heavier than you expected. I especially enjoy working with Black women, women of color, trauma survivors, and new or expecting parents who are carrying a lot and need a space where they don’t have to explain everything or hold it all together. I offer a warm and non judgemental space to process where you're at now and identify a path forward.

As of August 2026 I have availability for adjunctive EMDR and IFS work with clients who have primary therapists.
Life is exhausting for anxious trauma survivors. Even when you bust your ass to stabilize your life, you spend hours worrying about and planning for an uncertain future. Despite leaving home and finding your people, you still get stuck in painful memories from the past. You expect life to be hard, because, for you, it has been. You long for more ease, connection, and joy. At the very least, you want to sleep better, to take breaks from your responsibilities, and to feel a little better about your body. You’re tired of struggling through your day. You dream of a life that doesn't need constant fixing—a life that lets you truly rest.

My ideal clients are children, adolescents, adults, and families who are navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, life transitions, behavioral challenges, grief, relationship difficulties, and emotional overwhelm. I am especially passionate about supporting individuals impacted by childhood trauma, family stress, attachment wounds, postpartum concerns, and difficulties with emotional regulation. Many clients come to therapy feeling exhausted from “holding it together,” struggling silently, or feeling misunderstood in their environments. Parents may seek support for children experiencing behavioral or emotional concerns.

I have been licensed in the state of NC for almost 20 years and have worked in both inpatient and outpatient mental health settings I am trained and proficient in multiple research based modalities of treatment including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing ( EMDR), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).
Take the time to invest in yourself through therapy. For well over a decade, I have been honored to work with people from all walks of life. I have found that growth comes when we slow down and invest time in exploring our own beliefs, relationships, and behaviors. Sometimes we need a guide to help make sense of that process: a therapist. For over a decade I have honed my skills in working with grief, trauma, life transitions, mood disorders, anxiety, disordered eating, obesity, caregiver stress, women's issues, and more. While I am trained and certified in various modalities, treatment is tailored to each patient's goals

EMDR Therapists
Who is EMDR for?
EMDR was initially developed as a treatment for individuals with Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for whom memories of a deeply distressing experience can be inadvertently triggered by random everyday events. The procedure has since been applied in the treatment of many other conditions. For example, it is used by some therapists to treat anxiety disorders including panic and phobias, depression, dissociative disorders, eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and some personality disorders. It is suitable for adolescents and adults.

Why do people need EMDR?
People need EMDR as a way to manage distressing memories that in some way hamper the ability to function in the present. The procedure is believed to target the way memories are stored in the brain. Evidence indicates that past disturbing experiences cause ongoing distress because they were not adequately processed, and when such memories are triggered in the present, they are accompanied by all the emotions, thoughts, and physical sensations as the initial experience.

What problems does EMDR treat?
First and foremost, EMDR is intended as a treatment for PTSD, to defuse distressing memories that intrude on and impair everyday functioning. It is also often used to help those who are subject to panic attacks, phobias, and other forms of anxiety. In addition, EMDR has been used to treat individuals with depression, eating disorders, and personality disorders.

What happens in EMDR therapy?
First the therapist takes an individual’s history, and then the therapist and client decide which distressing experience(s) will be the target(s) of the exercise, delivered via a side-to-side visual stimulus requiring lateral eye movements. The client will be asked to activate thoughts, feelings, and any body sensations related to the troubling experience. The eye movements are said to reduce the emotional charge of the memory, so that the experience can then be safely discussed with the therapist and digested, minimizing its ability to trigger anxiety.
