Shitonda Johnson LCSW, LCDC

As a former CPS Investigator, I provide coaching and advocacy services to parents involved in child welfare investigations.

I provide counseling and coaching services to all genders. I also provide sex therapy services.

As a therapist, I employ Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a key strategy to help my clients overcome various psychological challenges. The fundamental premise of CBT is that our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are interconnected, and changing one can affect the others. During sessions, I help clients identify and challenge their negative thought patterns and beliefs, providing them with tools to disrupt these cycles and replace them with more positive and constructive thoughts.

As a therapist, I use Motivational Interviewing (MI) as a therapeutic approach to facilitate my client's personal growth and change. At its core, MI is collaborative, engaging clients as active participants in their own healing journey. The approach capitalizes on the client's intrinsic motivation for change and works toward their empowerment.

As a therapist, I use Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) to empower my clients, focusing on their strengths, resources, and future goals rather than past problems. This approach starts with the "miracle question," asking clients to imagine a life where their problem doesn't exist, which helps illuminate their goals. We then collaboratively develop strategies to achieve these goals, drawing from their past successes and resources. SFBT sessions emphasize positivity, solutions, and progress, ul
