Getting to know Karen Johnston

IMPORTANT: Thriveworks cannot provide services to clients with Medicaid coverage. If you have Medicaid, please contact your plan directly to find an in-network provider. For all other insurance plans, Thriveworks will verify your benefits after you book through Zocdoc. If verification isn't completed before your visit, you'll be charged our self-pay rate of $220 for that session. AFTER YOU BOOK: Complete these steps to avoid cancellation or being switched to self-pay. 1. Check your email for instructions to set up your Thriveworks account. Within your Thriveworks’ account, sign consent forms and add a valid credit card, which will be automatically charged for copays, fees, post-insurance balances, and self-pay amounts. 2. If using insurance, upload clear photos of the front and back of your insurance card. 3. Expect a confirmation call from our team to verify your information and answer questions. CANCELLATION POLICY: Provide 48 hours advance notice to avoid the $135 late cancellation fee. Karen Johnston is a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 10 years of experience. She specializes in trauma, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and life transitions, empowering clients to overcome barriers such as unresolved childhood wounds, parental challenges, and other traumas. Karen is passionate about working with diverse populations, including military and multicultural clients, as well as those seeking support that aligns with their faith, guiding them toward healing, growth, and a renewed sense of purpose. Karen earned her Master's in Counseling from Regent University.
