Meshalle Johnston, LISW

Meshalle Johnston, LISW

Psychotherapist
OH
Hello, I'm Meshalle. Life stressors can be conceptualized as either external factors, which can be decreased by taking some action, or internal factors, where the stress comes from within the person. As a therapist, I help guide clients through the process of changing unhelpful thoughts to more helpful and empowering ones. I possess a master’s degree in education and social work from Cleveland State University and have an Independent Social Work License with Supervisor Credentials, as well as a license in School Counseling. My background encompasses working in the public, government, and private sectors, conducting assessment and diagnostic testing, crisis intervention, and program development, with a commitment to addressing personal knowledge gaps and biases regarding culturally diverse groups. I have over twenty years of experience using cognitive therapy to help clients move away from rigid, judgmental self-talk to a more compassionate internal voice. Clients also identify and utilize healthy external strengths, supports, and experiences, considering the potential need for environmental change. In close collaboration, we will utilize your sources of strength and motivation to reconsider the helpfulness of thoughts in relation to everyday life, rather than focusing solely on their rationality or validity. My specialties include working with ADHD, adolescent and teen mental/behavioral health, anger management, antisocial behavior, anxiety, children's mental/behavioral health, depression, developmental disabilities, family relationships, military/veteran support, multicultural/diversity issues, stress, and trauma. I also offer SonderMind Video Telehealth for those who prefer virtual sessions.
