Elaine Johnson, MA

Elaine Johnson, MA

Psychotherapist
CA
I am Susan Elaine Johnson, a licensed clinical counselor who prefers to go by my middle name, Elaine, which can sometimes cause confusion. Before returning to school, I spent many years working in social services. I earned both my Bachelor's and Master’s degrees in Psychology from the University of Massachusetts Global. I approach each client as an individual with unique responses to life and its challenges and consider myself an ally to all communities. My focus areas include trauma, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and domestic abuse in adults. My approach I use a blend of evidence-based methods, including DBT, CBT, and positive psychology, within a person-centered framework. I strive to balance therapeutic conversation with practical tools, all centered on mindfulness. My focus I typically work with clients who have experienced trauma, whether or not they are fully aware of how it affects their daily lives. I have supported military veterans, survivors of domestic violence and childhood abuse, those impacted by religious trauma, individuals with narcissistic parents, and those managing mood disorders. My communication style I see myself as a companion on this journey, equipped with a few more tools in my toolbox. You are the expert on yourself; my role is to create a safe space where you can explore your challenges and develop insight to navigate them effectively. My journey to mental healthcare Since middle school, I have wanted to be a therapist. As a child who often felt silenced, as if my thoughts and feelings had no value, I am committed to giving voice to others and helping them internalize their worth. My goals for you Setting goals means different things to different people. For some, it can feel like pressure; for others, a path to progress. What matters most is that goals are realistic and genuinely reflect the client’s desires.. What matters most is that goals are realistic and genuinely reflect the client’s desires.
