About Jennie

Jennie Johnson is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas who brings six years of clinical experience to her work with clients facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family concerns, self-esteem struggles, and depression.

Background and approach

She draws from evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), and client-centered approaches to tailor treatment to each person’s needs. Her style blends empathy with practical skill-building, helping people identify unhelpful patterns, strengthen coping strategies, and build more satisfying connections.

Jennie emphasizes collaborative goal-setting and encourages clients to use their strengths while confronting barriers like abandonment, attachment issues, chronic illness, codependency, communication problems, or life transitions including divorce and blended family challenges. She frames therapy as a partnership focused on gradual, meaningful change and increased confidence.

Located in Texas and practicing in English, Jennie structures care to fit varied life circumstances and uses a mix of talk-based and skills training approaches to support emotional regulation, healthier relationships, and improved day-to-day functioning.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Jennie uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) as foundational tools in her work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression, offering concrete skills for day-to-day challenges. ACT emphasizes values-driven action and acceptance of difficult emotions, helping people move toward meaningful goals even when discomfort is present.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jennie works with each person to consider their goals, preferences, and the practical issues they bring, then adapts methods from CBT, ACT, or other evidence-based models to best fit the situation. This teamwork helps tailor interventions and track progress over time.

Online therapy with Jennie is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which can make participation more flexible for busy schedules or mobility limitations. These options allow for consistent follow-up, practice of skills between sessions, and easier scheduling so therapy can fit into daily life while focusing on tangible improvements.
