Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

*The first step to getting anywhere, is deciding you’re no longer willing to stay where you are! *

Hi and welcome! My name is Karin Johnson and I want to thank you for visiting my page. Reaching out for help is always a challenging, but important step, and I am glad you’ve taken that step!
First, let me introduce myself to you… I received my undergraduate degree in Social Work from Arizona State University and received my Master’s degree in Social Work from the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. I have worked with individuals, couples, families, and groups of all age ranges. My style is warm, empathic, and non-judgmental. I want you to feel comfortable working with me. My counseling style is relaxed and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.
My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, strength-based modalities, solution-focused counseling, psychoeducation, trauma-informed care, and mindfulness practices. I look to highlight a person’s strengths and their positives in their lives, and to work through personal difficulties and together, overcome life’s challenges to reach your goals. My role is to assist you in developing the needed skills and confidence to live your life to the fullest. Some of these skills may include improving communication, understanding healthy boundaries, and developing good relationships. I like to set practical goals with you, to help make changes in your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that solve problems. I will provide resources and worksheets as needed, so you can continue to focus on your growth outside of messaging or our live sessions. If you want support to start addressing the issues that are holding you back and causing you discomfort, then I would really like to start working with you.
I have the warmth, insight, and skills so together we can help you build healthy coping strategies.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people want to know whether online therapy truly helps. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, or adapting to life changes, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person care.

One major advantage is flexibility – clients can choose the communication method that fits their needs, whether that is video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to schedule care around work, family, and other commitments.

Licensed professionals and therapists offer services online, and if a different fit is desired, it is possible to switch to another provider. For many people, online therapy provides a practical, accessible option for addressing everyday mental health concerns while fitting into a busy life.
