About Johne

Johne Mitchell is an LPC with 11 years of clinical experience who helps people navigate stress, mood challenges, addiction, relationship and family concerns, and a range of other life difficulties.

Background and approach

She earned her MS in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2011 and has spent her career working in family settings, community programs, crisis and trauma-focused services, and substance use and severe mental illness care. Her background includes a broad array of therapeutic work that informs a practical, outcome-oriented approach.

Mitchell emphasizes collaborative, person-centered care that prioritizes being heard while exploring root causes and shifting unhelpful patterns. She often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with solution-focused strategies, motivational interviewing, and client-centered techniques to help clients reframe thinking, build coping skills, and pursue meaningful change.

Her practice aims to create open dialogue that supports managing life transitions, improving relationships, addressing grief or trauma, and reducing symptoms of anxiety, depression, or addictive behaviors. Johne practices in Virginia and works in English.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care



Johne often integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy into her work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce distress and improve daily functioning, which can help with anxiety, depression, panic, and many stress-related problems. ACT emphasizes values-guided action and learning to accept difficult internal experiences while committing to meaningful behavior change, which is useful for coping with chronic stress, grief, and life transitions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She works with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and specific challenges, and adapts methods over time so the plan fits each person's needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all model.

Online therapy here is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access licensed professionals from home or work, maintain continuity during busy periods, and use brief messaging or chat to reinforce skills between scheduled sessions.
