Dallas Johnson, MS, LCMHCS, NCC

In-Person and Telehealth

Clinical Director

Certified Clinical Trauma Professional

ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider

 

My life's work has been devoted to helping people heal, grow, and build meaningful lives. The therapeutic approaches I use are ones I would confidently recommend for my own family. Every treatment I offer is grounded in research, compassion, and respect for each person's unique story.

I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Supervisor (LCMHCS), National Certified Counselor (NCC), Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), and ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider (ADHD-CCSP). My primary specialties are trauma, ADHD, anxiety disorders, and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). I enjoy working with children, adolescents, adults, and families and have extensive training in helping individuals heal from trauma, overcome anxiety and OCD, and develop practical strategies for thriving with ADHD.

​

My approach to therapy is active, collaborative, and focused on lasting change. While developing healthy coping skills is important, my goal is to help clients uncover and resolve the underlying patterns, beliefs, and experiences driving their symptoms. Rather than simply managing anxiety, depression, or emotional distress, I work alongside clients to understand why those struggles developed in the first place and what is needed for genuine healing. If you're looking for a therapist who will gently challenge you, help you gain insight, and equip you with practical tools while addressing the root of the problem—not just the symptoms—you've come to the right place.

​

I believe therapy is never one-size-fits-all. Treatment is tailored to each client's goals, preferences, and unique experiences. My three primary treatment modalities are Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Inference-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (ICBT). These evidence-based approaches allow me to help clients process traumatic experiences, develop greater self-understanding and self-compassion, and break free from the patterns of fear, doubt, and obsessive thinking that keep them feeling stuck. Depending on each client's needs, I also integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Collaborative Problem Solving (CPS), and Parent Management Training (PMT), to create an individualized treatment plan.

​

Whether you are navigating the effects of trauma, struggling with anxiety, OCD, ADHD, relationship challenges, or simply feeling stuck, my goal is to provide a safe, collaborative, and encouraging environment where meaningful healing can take place. I don't believe people are broken—I believe our minds adapt in remarkable ways to help us survive difficult experiences. Together, we'll work to understand those adaptations, appreciate the purpose they once served, and help you move toward lasting freedom, healing, and resilience. Therapy is hard work, but you don't have to do it alone. I would be honored to walk alongside you on that journey.
