Getting to know Tamika Johnson
My name is Tamika Johnson-Ogbu, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with extensive training in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), trauma-informed therapy, reality therapy, and motivational interviewing. I hold a PhD in Social Work from Walden University and a Master’s in Social Work from Temple University. Additionally, I have earned a Master of Divinity, where I gained solid knowledge of pastoral care and Christian counseling. My focus is on the whole person—body, soul, and spirit. My aim is to help you regain a sense of hope for your life that is found in Jesus Christ.
I specialize in anxiety; facing and managing substance abuse and other addictions; depression and anger rooted in underlying powerlessness and helplessness; marriage, couple, and relationship issues; addictive and self-defeating behavior patterns; codependence and lack of assertiveness; deepening your relationship with God and strengthening your faith; family and parent-adolescent conflict; and grief and loss.
I’m here to support you through your emotional pain, challenging life circumstances, interpersonal difficulties, mental health concerns, struggles overcoming substance abuse, and other debilitating problems and brokenness. I will pray alongside you and for you so that you can invite God into your heart and experience the power of His healing in your life.
What should a new client know about working with you?
A therapeutic alliance, in my opinion, is one in which you have at least 51% of the sway and I have a maximum of 49%. My mission is to help you reach your life goals and keep the advantages of therapy going strong. We will focus on creating healthy connections, self-awareness, self-esteem, self-care, coping skills, and a closer relationship with your faith. Your happiness is being restricted by harmful attitudes and practices, which we shall strive to alter.
The overarching goal is for you to identify the support systems you require in your own life and learn self-care techniques so that, eventually, you won't be feeling to have to go to therapy.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

I really enjoy working with her. She listens, reflects back, offers positive feedback. We are both clergy so we relate on that level as well.
