Getting to know Kiara Johnson

Hello! I’m truly glad you’re here, and I want to take a moment to recognize the effort you've made in choosing to seek counseling—it's a significant step towards prioritizing your well-being, and I am proud of you for taking it. My name is Kiara Johnson, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Mississippi. I hold a Doctor of Professional Counseling degree from Mississippi College. I earned my MEd in Counseling from Delta State University and hold a Bachelor's degree from Mississippi Valley State University. With me as your counselor or therapist, you can expect to explore how past decisions and events in your life shaped how you communicate, feel, think, and love. I help children, teenagers, and adults break barriers that block them from making healthy life choices while teaching them to cope with life challenges through the art of counseling.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I often use Cognitive Behavioral and ACT Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better

What is your typical process for working with clients?

During the first session, clients can expect an introduction, a discussion of their life history, and current presenting concerns to help with structuring goals for the counseling sessions. Each session after the first session is collaboratively designed to reach counseling goals and help the client navigate challenges faced.
