“Highly recommend! My weekly therapy is my escape and refuge and I am listened to and supported though dealing with depression and trauma. ”

“Such a relief to find a therapist here. I was shown empathy and felt listened to and they also take my medicaid insurance which is a big deal. Truly feel I am headed down a better path and it helps to have someone solid to talk when going through the situation I am dealing with and all the anxiety and stress. If you are struggling, do not wait like I did, start therapy here or do whatever you need to try and help!”

Getting to know Tara Johnson
My counseling style is relaxed, realistic, and client-centered, which I believe is essential when processing difficult emotions and trauma. I combine strengths-based therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, and motivational interviewing.
Providing clients with a safe, non-judgmental space in which they can process and heal is my passion. I recognize the importance of acknowledging the past and finding ways to feel more alive in the present. I don’t have all the answers, but I will work with you to challenge beliefs about yourself and your current situation. Together, we can set goals and improve your circumstances.
I hold a Master’s in Clinical Social Work from Binghamton University, which has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to support you effectively. I aim to help you develop healthy, productive coping strategies and empower you to take control of your life. As Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “Try and leave the world a little better than you found it.” This is my goal with every client I have the pleasure of serving. Give me a try — I’m already so happy to meet you.
