About Tamika

Tamika Johnson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who aims to help people regain steadiness when life feels overwhelming. She emphasizes patience and small steps, celebrating progress and learning from setbacks so clients can rebuild strength. Tamika presents herself as a steady presence for people seeking support during difficult transitions and stressful periods.

She draws on 14 years of experience in mental health to guide conversations about practical goals. Sessions focus on the connection between mind, body, and spirit and on helping clients notice strengths they already have. Tamika uses person-centered methods to explore what matters most to each individual.

Tamika works with a broad range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, sleeping difficulties, addictions, anger, self-esteem, bipolar mood patterns, ADHD, and caregiver or compassion fatigue. She also addresses blended family issues, chronic illness and pain, domestic violence, multicultural concerns, and end-of-life needs. The aim is to help people find steadier footing amid life’s changes.

Her practice blends client-centered listening with practical tools such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness techniques. Emotionally-Focused Therapy and Motivational Interviewing are also part of her toolbox when they fit a person’s goals. Tamika describes therapy as a collaborative process where the client and therapist decide what will help most.

Tamika invites people to be gentle with themselves while moving toward healing. She emphasizes building a reliable working relationship first, then using that connection to try new ways of coping and to reach clearer, more manageable goals.

How Tamika’s Approaches Translate Online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathetic listening and helping the client set their own goals. It’s useful for people who need a calm, respectful space to talk through stress, grief, or life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) gives clear tools to change patterns of thinking and behavior. It often helps with anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and coping with daily stress by teaching practical skills and homework exercises.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and work with emotions to improve how they respond to difficult feelings. It can support people dealing with trauma, grief, and intense emotional reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tamika will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. She adjusts pace and techniques as progress and feedback suggest.

Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, or choose a shorter check-in when needed. It also lets people use written between-session tasks, mindfulness practices, and CBT worksheets to keep moving forward between meetings.
