About Emily
Emily Johnson, Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), holds a Colorado license and has 10 years of clinical experience. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, eating concerns, low self-esteem, depression, relationship strain, grief, and coping with life changes. Her practice also focuses on body image, obsessions and compulsions including OCD, phobias, post-traumatic stress, and social anxiety and phobia.
Johnson frames therapy around the client's own knowledge of their life. She treats people as the expert in their story and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions emphasize practical steps and clear goals rather than long theory. She aims to make small, achievable changes that fit into everyday life.
Her methods draw on several evidence-based approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to notice and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify values and take committed action. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) supplies concrete skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance.
Emily also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to set short-term goals and Trauma-Focused Therapy when past harm affects current functioning. She blends these approaches to match the presenting concern and the client's goals. Sessions move at a practical pace, with homework or exercises when helpful.
Clients can expect straightforward talk, skill practice, and regular review of progress. She works in English and practices in Colorado. Prospective clients should confirm current session formats before booking.

How Emily Johnson applies therapy approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients identify what matters to them and take small actions that align with those values. It is often used for anxiety, avoidance, and when people want clearer direction in life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and problem behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches practical skills for managing strong emotions, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that fit goals, preferences, and the presenting issues. Plans are adjusted over time based on what is helpful.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week. It can also allow shorter check-ins, reduce travel time, or remove the need to be on camera when that helps someone focus. Licensed professionals use these approaches to keep sessions goal-focused and practical while adapting techniques to remote settings.
