Christen Johnson, LPC

Christen Johnson is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Louisiana. She helps people who are feeling stressed, anxious, down, or struggling with relationships and self-esteem. She offers steady, respectful support for those facing trauma, confidence challenges, or motivation hurdles.

Christen listens first and then works with each person to shape a plan that fits their situation. She uses practical conversations rather than jargon. Sessions focus on small, useful steps that can be tried between meetings.

Her approach draws on several methods, including acceptance and commitment ideas, cognitive behavioral techniques, and client-centered listening. She also uses mindfulness and motivational interviewing tools when they fit the goals. These methods are used to help with mood, worry, relationship patterns, and coping after difficult events.

Christen has about 12 years of professional experience in counseling. She aims to treat people with sensitivity and compassion while adapting to what each person needs. Her work includes supporting caregivers and addressing stress related to caring roles.

When someone reaches out, Christen starts by learning what matters most to them. From there she helps set clear, manageable goals and checks in on progress. The focus is on steady improvement through practical strategies and real conversations.

How these approaches fit into online counseling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) invites people to notice what matters to them and take small actions toward those values, even when thoughts or feelings feel difficult. It can help with anxiety, low mood, and motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, moods, and actions link together and teaches practical changes people can try to reduce worry and lift mood. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist follows the person’s pace and priorities.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then suggest approaches to try. That process is collaborative and can change over time as needs shift.

The practical benefits of online work can include easier scheduling and fitting sessions around caregiving or work. Online care can reduce travel time and make it simpler to attend brief check-ins between other obligations. Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available and what will best fit your routine.
