Your authentic, vulnerable self will never be seen as “too much” by those who empower and celebrate you. You can be your own home.
Hi, I’m Kellie Johnson, Clinical Mental Health Counseling Intern.
I’m a counseling intern who values helping clients navigate impacts of life experiences and societal issues. I am here to create a counseling space that can hold all the vulnerable parts of you. I tailor my counseling style to best serve your needs and intersecting identities in the hopes that you not only feel supported but also empowered to face any obstacle.
When I am not working with clients, I love spending time with my friends and my partner. I’d like to think I am very funny as I love all things comedy.I also spend time engaging with my interests, whether it’s crocheting, watching Gilmore Girls, being outside, driving, or watching musicals and belting out every song!
I became a counselor through my own personal counseling journey as it helped me find my voice and embrace all my identities. I want to help clients find their voice and empower their self-discovery.
Embracing my humanity and creativity.
