Each individual is unique, which means that we all have different approaches that will work best for us. I believe this is essential when working together, as it helps to shape how our time will best serve you. We are fellow travelers through this journey, and I hope that together we can create a healing space. Not everyone experiences anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, etc. in the same way. This is why I believe it is essential to tailor our experience together to your specific needs, and continue to evolve as this dynamic changes. Together, we can navigate the ways in which your individual needs are met and cared for.

I pursued my Masters because I have always been someone who had a skill for listening to others and in some cases helping them; it was done so often that my parents who were divorced both individually would make comments about how I could be a therapist. One day after witnessing someone who often sought my feedback manage a situation on her own I realized how fulfilling it could be to not just create the space for someone to share what troubles them but to witness them grow.

My name is Vivian E. Johnson, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist. I predominately utilize the psychodynamic approach. I work with individuals, families, and couples experiencing anxiety, depression, disruptive behaviors, relationship challenges, self-esteem issues, and trauma. I help clients recognize their recurring unhelpful thought, emotional and behavioral patterns, and the defense mechanisms they've developed to avoid distress and cope with stress. This insight may allow them to begin changing those patterns and develop more helpful and healthier ways to cope with life stressors.

Change is constant. At times, it leaves us feeling like we’ve disconnected. You may feel stuck, or your body & emotions numb. Maybe you feel drawn to seek a fresh perspective on issues you’ve had with yourself, a partner, friends, or family. At times, we know we need a shift, but it sounds exhausting to go through alone. Many of my clients find that they feel better when they have an ear to listen and affirming space to feel seen and explore. You have the medicine, and i'm happy to be a compassionate witness on your healing journey, please reach out to collaborate with me today!

In today's 24/7 instant communication and gratification culture, stress and pressure are often all too common, in addition to dealing with COVID-19, its limitations to life and social isolation. Our jobs, relationships, friendships and even our pets demand time from us and results in little "me" time. Going offline to nurture yourself is all too uncommon but can be the key to a more contented, joyous, and thriving life. My practice specializes in helping you have a more happy, healthy, productive, and more importantly relaxed life. Taking an hour of your time to go offline has great benefits to creating peace in your life.

All humans are wired for connection – we need it on the most basic level from the moment we are born and throughout our lifetime. But humans are the worst! And the best! Humans are complicated. We need each other, we love each other, we hurt each other – we develop ways of reaching out for connection that might not be working anymore. This is where I come in. I work with people who are experiencing distress within themselves and in their relationships. We will identify the unhelpful beliefs and patterns that keep you stuck, and then learning new ways of relating to yourself and others that make you feel…..dare I say it?… happy!
