Karen Johnson

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida with 14 years of professional experience, and I am also a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. My expertise includes helping clients navigate challenges such as lack of motivation, self-esteem issues, career difficulties, and coping with significant life changes. I specialize in supporting individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, compassion fatigue, and other mental health concerns, with a particular focus on trauma-informed care.

In my practice, I prioritize creating an open and safe environment where clients feel comfortable sharing their thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment. I believe that taking the first step towards a more fulfilling and happier life requires immense courage, and I am committed to being a supportive partner in that journey. My approach is collaborative, working closely with clients to identify their goals and develop personalized strategies to achieve them, utilizing evidence-based techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).

I am particularly passionate about empowering individuals to overcome obstacles and realize their full potential. As the child of Jamaican immigrants, I bring a culturally relevant perspective to my work, valuing diversity and inclusivity in all aspects of my practice. I am also a person of faith, which informs my strong belief system and commitment to ethical and compassionate care.

In addition to my professional work, I enjoy meeting new people and building meaningful connections with my clients. I am dedicated to continuous learning and growth, both personally and professionally, to ensure that I provide the highest quality of care. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you, supporting you in your personal growth and helping you achieve the life you envision.

Is Online Therapy the Right Choice for Your Mental Health Journey?

Online therapy can be an effective option for many common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and navigating life changes. Research and clinical experience indicate that remote sessions often match the outcomes seen in traditional in-person care for these typical issues.

A key benefit is convenience and flexibility – clients can choose the format that fits their needs, whether video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This range of options makes it easier to maintain consistent care amid busy schedules and changing circumstances.

Therapists who offer online services are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to switch providers if they seek a different fit. For many people, virtual therapy provides accessible, practical support while still relying on trained clinicians and established therapeutic approaches.
