Cynthia Johnson centers her work on healing the whole person – mind, body, and soul. She uses client-centered methods to build a strong therapeutic alliance, meeting each person where they are and collaborating to create a treatment plan that they are invested in.

Her counseling style weaves educational elements into sessions so clients can better understand the reasons behind their patterns and strategies. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness practices, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Solution-Focused brief therapy to tailor interventions to individual needs. Cynthia often uses video sessions to foster connection, and she is also available by phone for those who prefer that format. Her availability includes evenings and Saturday mornings, and she checks messages every day except Sunday.

She is licensed by the state of Texas as a professional counselor and brings 19 years of clinical experience. Cynthia earned a Master’s Degree in Community Counseling from Eastern Illinois University in Charleston, Illinois, and has worked in a range of settings including a child placing agency, a residential treatment facility, a psychiatric hospital, private practice, and higher education.
