I believe that as human beings, our being matters more than our doing. I help people foster peace with themselves apart from anything they could ever accomplish or do. I also believe that we are all made to be in relationship with one another. Relationships are where we learn love, comfort, encouragement, joy, and hope. Alternately, they are also where we experience pain, abuse, abandonment, and rejection. It is my desire that my clients are able to reflect on the pain of their past with peace and hope and are able to have healthy and joy-filled relationships with others.

Sometimes life is hard and we can struggle managing things like anxiety, depression, relationships, communication, and especially, boundaries.

Therapy is a space to press pause and refill your cup. Let's work together to unpack and work through the hard stuff together. My goal is to give you a space free of judgement so that you can grow into a happier, healthier, and more balanced version of you! Let's work through the pain and hurt so that you can experience hope

You are a unique, deeply loved child of God. That's the truth. The problem is, that as soon as you were born, sin--first others' and then your own--began to cloud your identity. I see counseling as clearing away those sin clouds to uncover your true self. And, as you seek to repair yourself and your broken relationships, I would love to help you apply Christ's principles of prayer, repentance, forgiveness, holy purpose, & sacrificial love to your way of living so that you might bring greater peace and happiness to yourself and those around you.

Hello! My name is Tara Johnson, LPC, and I am a graduate of Walden University with my Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling. In my educational and clinical journey, I have found the Cognitive-Behavioral approach to be of great assistance; however, I am also aware that everyone is unique thereby requiring the addition of other therapies as warranted in my “mental health toolbox”. All theories incorporate an understanding of the desire to change one’s approach to a situation even if the situation continues to exist, let me assist you in the process.

While working at A Step Forward Wellness Services, as a clinician I aim to provide a safe space for clients to feel comfortable to share their inner thoughts, needs and feelings. I do so by utilizing an array of therapeutic techniques grounded in Cognitive Behavior (CBT), Person-Centered, Solution-Focused and Strength-Based Therapy approaches. I realize that not one person is the same and it is important to meet people where they are in order to get the desired outcome, that is achievable.

As a therapist, it is my priority to provide a supportive and caring environment where you can have a non-judgmental space, learn new ways of coping, and ultimately create the changes you want to see in your life. I enjoy working with all ages, but have a passion for working with teenagers and young adults. Some of my specialties include anxiety, depression, adoption, trauma, and self-esteem.

You may be struggling to identify how you are feeling or experiencing invalidation in your emotions. Maybe you’re feeling stuck in a relationship, with an upcoming decision, or with where you are in life. You might be feeling grief, anxiety, or deep sadness. I work with teens and adults to navigate all types of emotions and process how to move forward with them. Having a judgement free zone to fully process your emotions, your options in an upcoming decision, or to navigate difficult relationships can bring so much clarity!
