About

Hello! I’m truly glad you’re here, and I want to take a moment to recognize the effort you've made in choosing to seek counseling—it's a significant step towards prioritizing your well-being, and I am proud of you for taking it. My name is Kiara Johnson and with me as your counselor or therapist, you can expect to explore how past decisions and events in your life shaped you to communicate, feel, think, and love. I help children, teenagers, and adults break barriers that block them from making healthy life choices while teaching them to cope with life challenges through the art of counseling. During the first session, clients can expect an introduction, a discussion of their life history, and current presenting concerns to help with structuring goals for the counseling sessions. Each session after the first session is collaboratively designed to reach counseling goals and help the client navigate challenges faced. In our sessions, I aim to build a collaborative relationship where we can work together towards your goals. Whether you're grappling with anxiety that feels overwhelming, dealing with the complexities of relationships, or seeking clarity about your identity, I am here to support you every step of the way. I recognize that everyone’s journey is unique. Specialties: I work with clients who may be struggling with anxiety, stress, or trauma related to their relationships or family. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Credentials & Experience: I have over 6 years in the counseling field working with teenagers and adults/families. I hold a Professional Counseling license in Mississippi.

"I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better."
