Getting to know Mary Johnston

Hello, I'm Kate. I believe that finding the right therapist to assist you in your journey is often like finding a pair of shoes that has the right fit. This process can be arduous and can deter people from pursuing counseling. A key part of my clinical practice is to build rapport with my clients to assist them with feeling comfortable sharing what can be painful topics and issues. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is one of the most influential factors in assisting individuals to be successful in therapy and reach their goals. I especially enjoy working with members of the LGBTQIA+ community, as I identify as an LGBTQIA+ individual. In addition to excellent rapport-building skills, I utilize a combination of several therapeutic orientations including solution-focused, strengths-based, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), experiential, and mindfulness-based techniques. I am also trained in CBT-I (cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia). With 14 years of experience working in the behavioral health field, I have had the pleasure of working with individuals from a variety of cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds who have experienced challenges with stress, substance misuse, mental health, sleep, and medical issues. I hold an MSW and am a Licensed Certified Social Worker-Clinical. I specialize in helping clients with addiction, anger management, ADHD, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, depression, family relationships, gender identity, grief and bereavement, life transitions, military and veteran support, multicultural and diversity issues, PTSD, intimate and romantic relationships, psychosis and schizophrenia, sleep disorders, stress, suicidal ideation and self-harming, trauma, traumatic brain injury, anxiety, medical issues and physical health, and LGBTQIA+ support. I look forward to helping you accomplish your therapy goals. Let's work together to find the best path forward for you.
