Hi, I'm Johnell! I specialize in treating adults with a history of trauma, OCD, and depression. I am trained in working with adults who are recovering from traumatic experiences of all kinds—especially in relationships. Relationship trauma can make it difficult to trust others, communicate our needs, and form new connections. Experiencing trauma can feel isolating enough, and even more so when it prevents us from truly connecting with those around us. I use techniques rooted in CBT and Motivational Interviewing to help my clients heal and form healthy, meaningful relationships.

Are you a woman who has recently been diagnosed with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), or are you experiencing infertility? If you answered yes to either, or maybe even both of those questions, I am here to tell you that I can help. Living with both PCOS and/or infertility can be an isolating road, but it does not have to be. In our work together, we will not only process any and all feelings that you may have regarding where you are currently, but we will also work to find helpful reframes, introduce effective coping skills and maybe even learn a new thing or two along the way. I am very passionate about this work.

Hello! I’m Anna Weddington, a Licensed Professional Mental Health Counselor. I believe that everyone is doing the best they can with the tools they have. Sometimes, adding more tools to our toolkit can lead to greater satisfaction in our daily interactions and day-to-day living. I truly enjoy my work as a therapist and supporting my clients as they navigate life’s challenges. I strive to help my clients gain new skills that they can readily apply outside of the therapy realm. My ultimate goal is for my clients to no longer need therapy so they can move forward and live fulfilling lives.

Feeling like a shadow of your former self. Just going through the motions. All this pretending and performing—it's exhausting. You've been through some real tough times. It's a lot to handle. You just want to feel good again and not have those past struggles keep coming back to haunt you. So you try your hardest to put on a brave face and be the person everyone expects you to be. Relationships are on shaky ground right now. Feeling embarrassed every time you lose your cool with someone you care about. Worried that they'll get sick of dealing with this trauma stuff. Fresh out of ideas for how to bring things in a better direction.

Impact is my nature. It's been my desire to specialize with those clients who were dealt the most challenging of hands and don't have the time or patience for a more drawn out treatment. I take limited clients in order to be fully present with you. I've been known as a therapist for those who don't like therapy. I'm accustomed to working in areas of depressive episodes, panic and anxiety, broken family relationships, life stressors, parenting issues, abnormal psychiatric, spiritual issues, and traumatic experiences.

Have you spent your life caring for everyone but yourself? Do you find yourself in a phase of life that doesn't feel comfortable? It's OK to admit that things just don't seem right! Whatever the change life is throwing at you right now, I'd love to walk with you on the journey. Change is hard, but talking with a therapist can provide insight that talking with a friend cannot. Therapy is a time for you to feel safe to explore yourself. My agenda is to foster your discovery of you. Sometimes that might mean asking some tough questions or exploring a topic painful to talk about. Other times it is validating you.

As humans, we are always gravitating towards healing, trying to right ourselves and to shift from surviving back into living. But sometimes, we get stuck with uncomfortable emotions that we aren't exactly sure what to do with. In therapy, I offer a safe place to unpack all of that uncomfortable stuff and decide what is worth keeping and what is just too heavy to keep lugging around day after day. If you are ready to unpack, I am here for it. If you want to learn how to be assertive, how to set boundaries effectively and how to show up for yourself even when others can't or don't, I am absolutely on board.

I don’t believe in a one size fits all approach. Purpose and meaning, and how we get there, is different for everyone. I enjoy working with women ages 30-65. During this tumultuous time women are coming into their power and may be experiencing relational issue challenges, sleep disruptions, and symptoms of perio-menopause/menopause. I am an eclectic therapist, using best practice, evidence-based interventions (CBT, DBT, solution-focused therapy), spiritual connection, and experiential art therapy. The underpinning of my approach is authentic person centered, existential and conversational talk therapy.
