Experienced counselor for families and individuals
Start with Michael JohnnsonLicensed · Professional · Cancel Anytime
Michael Johnnson brings 40 years of clinical experience working with people facing a wide range of challenges. He meets with individuals, couples, and families of any age and ethnicity, adapting his approach to fit each person’s history and current needs.
He has advanced training in family-systems therapy and in motivational interviewing, and he tailors treatment to what will be most comfortable and effective for each client. At times he uses a brief, solution-focused style, while at other times the depth and complexity of a person’s experience determine a slower, more exploratory pace.
He is a 72 year old Christian man who draws on personal experience from marriage, divorce, a blended and inter-racial family, and relationships that include non-binary family members. He also brings lived experience with vocational challenges, addiction recovery, and ADHD. He can offer counseling from a Christian perspective when that is preferred.
Michael works collaboratively with clients to form and carry out treatment plans, making sure each person understands the purpose, process, and intended outcome of the work. His efforts are guided by clients’ thoughts, feelings, and expressions, and he values being a partner in their progress. He is a licensed professional counselor in Wisconsin.
He appreciates your time and consideration.
