Myra Johnson
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in TN with a varied background of experience and knowledge. I love helping clients identify what is holding them back in their lives and work on meeting new challenges with comfort and healing. My goal is to make clients feel comfortable and safe while they share their thoughts and feelings.
I love helping clients identify what is holding them back in their lives and work on meeting new challenges with comfort and healing.
I am here to be supportive but not tell you have to run your life- that is YOUR decision. I sort through the options, the barriers and the coping strategies available.
First session
After introductions, we will explore the underlying issues or triggers you are facing and collaborate on goals for treatment. I want to work on what YOU want to work on. We will also review your strengths as most people have many they are not tapping into. We will design a treatment plan together to meet your challenges a step at a time.
Strengths
Because I have many years of experience providing mental health care, I am well tuned in to the spoken and unspoken needs of clients. With time, I am able to support them in opening up and going deeper into what they are feeling and needing.
Ideal clients
I enjoy working with women of all ages as they discover who they are and what they want for their lives. Helping them find joy and peace in their everyday lives, despite trauma or setbacks, is my specialty. Using various evidence based tools, we can collaborate on goals to address their needs in a holistic approach.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
When it comes to therapy, you want someone who has experience and the heart of a teacher-someone who will teach you techniques that work. We will explore how shifting our beliefs/thoughts directly impacts our mood and behaviors via CBT.
Grief Therapy
We grieve over many things or situations in life, beyond death. We can explore how to move forward when our hearts are hurting. Divorces, break-ups, losing our health, etc. can all created the grief process.
Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy
Dr. Ellis’ techniques are very helpful in building coping skills for any stressor you are dealing with. I will teach you how to use these tools and see a positive impact.
Mind-body approach
Our emotional health and physical health are connected and treating both with a holistic approach is beneficial to many. We will explore this connection and small steps one can take to find balance and wellness.
