Biography
Keisha Johnson, LPC, is a licensed professional counselor with over 20 years of experience helping individuals navigate life’s most difficult challenges. She specializes in working with adults and adolescents facing depression, anxiety, trauma, substance use, relationship issues, and emotional dysregulation. Drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT), and Family Systems approaches, Keisha empowers clients to challenge unhelpful thought patterns, improve communication, and embrace lasting change.
Keisha’s therapeutic style is warm, encouraging, and rooted in the belief that healing begins with hope and self-empowerment. She creates a space where clients feel safe to explore their experiences, identify strengths, and grow into more authentic versions of themselves. With a background in both mental health counseling and behavioral education, Keisha is especially passionate about supporting women, families, and individuals managing co-occurring disorders. Outside of her clinical work, she brings her same values of resilience and care into all areas of her life.
