I am Dr. Veneisha Johnson, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I am a passionate writer-practitioner in mental health who divides my time between clinical practice and research. In my clinical practice, I provide treatments to adult and adolescent clients with a wide range of emotional, behavioral, and adjustment problems, such as anxiety, stress, depression, and relationship problems.
I join you to achieve mental health and life goals, including managing stress, repairing fragmented relationships, and trauma wounds. As my client, you will experience a protected and compassionate environment where you can discover and work through emotional and personal issues brought on by life changes, including family and cultural pressures. I work with clients to establish new insights and behavioral patterns required to achieve significant life-changing results. My goal is to empower individuals to create the life they want for themselves. My approach is relational, client-focused, and solution-oriented. I utilized methods focusing on holistic health in a safe, judgment-free, and confidential environment that will help you reclaim your emotional health.
I specialize in depression, trauma, anxiety, relationship complexities, sexual abuse, and human trafficking. I work extensively with victims/survivors of abuse. These varying experiences have allowed me to access training and treatment for people at different stages of life.
I am looking forward to supporting you on your journey to healthier you. Change comes from doing.

Dr Johnson has challenged and supported me from day 1. I have been working with her for almost two months and it has been a time of very fruitful conversations. She is a light and her rootedness in the Gospel has helped create a haven in this counseling process.

Dr Johnson, thank you for being extremely supportive in the few weeks we communicated. Eventhough we have never met, you made me so comfortable over the calls to share my thoughts and feelings. I will always remember your words and advice. Thanks a lot for providing the exact push I needed.
