Emily Johnson, LPC

Emily Johnson is a licensed professional counselor with ten years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and the fallout from trauma and abuse. She works with individuals who are struggling with eating concerns, body image, obsessions and compulsions, phobias, grief, and major life changes. She aims to make the first step feel doable and supportive rather than overwhelming.

In sessions she treats the person in front of her as the expert on their own life. Conversations focus on practical goals and small, manageable steps. She supports people in naming their values and using those values to guide change when feelings feel stuck or heavy.

Her approach draws on several evidence-informed methods, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy. That means sessions often combine learning new skills, trying short experiments between meetings, and working through past hurts at a pace that feels tolerable.

Emily emphasizes clear, real-world strategies like behavior changes, skill practice, and problem solving. People can expect straightforward language, actionable homework when it helps, and a steady focus on what matters most to them. Her goal is to make therapy useful day to day.

She practices in Colorado and conducts sessions in English. If someone wants to begin, they complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to her availability. The process is intended to match people with a therapist whose style fits their needs.
