About Carrie Johnson

As a licensed therapist in Texas, I bring over a decade of experience supporting individuals through complex life challenges. My practice centers on helping clients navigate depression, trauma, addiction, and self-esteem concerns with compassionate, culturally responsive care.

I specialize in addressing a wide range of issues including social anxiety, workplace stress, relationship dynamics, and personal growth. My approach honors each client’s unique journey, offering supportive guidance through transitions, healing, and self-discovery.

With expertise in multicultural counseling, I create a welcoming space that respects diverse experiences and identities. Whether you’re struggling with isolation, seeking life purpose, or working through difficult emotions, I’m committed to walking alongside you with empathy and professional insight.

My therapeutic approach is collaborative and strengths-based, designed to help you develop resilience, build meaningful connections, and move toward your personal goals with confidence and clarity. I am a certified EMDR clinician and incorporate somatic exercises as part of a treatment plan. I look forward to connecting with you.

“I didn’t get to see her for more than one session, due to my own financial circumstances, but that one session was helpful and brought me a lot of clarity. I would recommend her for sure.”

“Carrie has been a godsend to me these past months helping me navigate a new long-distance relationship, contemplate a big move, and has supported and encouraged me in my vocation which is challenging, rewarding, and also emotionally draining. We talk about all kinds of topics, she has a lot of expertise in all aspects of trauma, and she is professional, warm, funny, and personable. I'm grateful to work with her.”
