Carrie Johnson
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC)
About Carrie
I’m a licensed therapist in Texas with extensive experience supporting individuals through life’s most challenging moments. My work spans depression, trauma, addiction, and self-esteem concerns, and I’m committed to helping clients navigate complex emotional terrain with compassion and skill.
I specialize in working with diverse populations and bring cultural responsiveness to every session. I have particular expertise in trauma recovery, attachment issues, grief, and life transitions. I also support clients navigating workplace challenges, relationship difficulties, identity questions, and spiritual concerns.
My approach is person-centered and grounded in evidence-based practices. I create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your experiences authentically—whether you’re processing past hurt, working through current struggles, or discovering your life’s direction. I honor your unique background, values, and identity as central to your healing.
I work with individuals across the lifespan and welcome clients from all walks of life. Whether you’re facing depression, anxiety, relationship strain, career uncertainty, or the weight of past experiences, I’m here to support your growth at your own pace.
Taking the first step toward therapy takes real courage, and I’m honored to walk alongside you on your journey.
