Getting to know Linda Johannisson

Hi there, I'm Linda! I am a Licensed Certified Social Worker-Clinical (LCSW-C) located in Oakland, Maryland, and working statewide via Telehealth. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Maryland. I work with adults and specialize in anxiety, depression, addictions, compulsions, and couples therapy. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy to help my clients make progress and start feeling better. **My approach** My approach to therapy varies based on the needs of my clients. I have found that Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy help both me and my clients build a shared understanding of their needs and guide us in charting and adjusting therapy to provide the best path toward resolving problems and growing in health and comfort. **My focus** My style and approach are a great fit for adults dealing with anxiety, depression, addictions or compulsions, and relationship problems. After 30 years as a therapist, I have learned that the relationship between client and therapist is the most important element for healing. My clients consistently report positive success. **My communication style** My communication style is calm, accommodating, and relaxing. My goal is for clients to feel comfortable talking with me about anything. I am not judgmental. My focus is to help people feel better as quickly as possible with lasting effects. **My journey to mental healthcare** I believe there is no greater joy than watching people grow out of uncomfortable places in their lives and move toward health, happiness, and freedom to be their very best selves. I have worked toward this goal as a therapist and in my past careers as a Naval Officer and ABC Television Writer and Producer. **My goals for you** My approach to goal setting is simple. The client is the driver, and I am the GPS. This means my work is to keep therapy on track and focused while ensuring comfort and building trust.
