About

Amanda Johnson, MD, LCSW-C, LCSW is a therapist who supports individuals and couples who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, addiction, betrayal, or a life transition that has become harder than expected. She works with people who want more than short-term relief and are ready to understand the patterns keeping them stuck, whether those patterns show up as emotional overload, substance use, relationship conflict, or a sense of disconnection from themselves or a partner.

In couples work, Amanda helps partners move away from reactive loops and toward structured, honest conversations that encourage accountability and rebuilding trust. When a relationship has been shaken by infidelity or other ruptures, she focuses on creating a clearer path forward so both people can engage in change with intention rather than staying in survival mode.

With individuals, she looks beneath the surface of anxiety, emotional overwhelm, or addictive coping to identify what is driving the distress. The work emphasizes replacing survival-based strategies with steadier tools that support meaningful growth and greater stability over time.

Amanda brings a direct but caring presence to therapy. She offers thoughtful challenge, helps clients make sense of their relational and emotional patterns, and supports them as they build healthier ways of living, connecting, and showing up for themselves and the people they care about.

Evidence-Based Support, Designed for Online Connection

Amanda Johnson uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help individuals and couples move from reactive, survival-based coping into more intentional change. In practice, this often means identifying the cycles that keep anxiety, stress, or relationship conflict going, then building practical skills to respond differently when emotions run high.

For couples working through disconnection or rebuilding after betrayal, structured conversations can help partners slow things down, communicate more clearly, and increase accountability. For individuals navigating anxiety, addiction, or major life transitions, therapy can focus on understanding what is driving overwhelm and replacing short-term coping with steadier tools that better match long-term goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amanda collaborates with clients to clarify what they want to change, what has and has not helped in the past, and what feels realistic to practice between sessions, adjusting the focus as goals evolve.

Online therapy makes it easier to get consistent support without putting life on hold. Clients can connect with Amanda through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, choosing the format that best fits their schedule, comfort level, and day-to-day demands.
