About Taij Johnson
Taij Johnson brings seven years of experience in behavioral health to his counseling practice, grounding his work in a long history of hands-on care and social service roles. He began in mental health at an entry level while still in high school and has since supported people in group home and assisted living settings as a personal care worker, served as a high-risk intervention technician in schools, and worked as a Protective Services social worker. These varied roles informed his decision to earn an MA in Counseling and pursue licensure, and he now holds both LPC and LCMHC credentials - Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor - which reflect his advanced training and clinical qualifications.
His approach is strongly client-centered, emphasizing collaboration and meeting individuals where they are. He draws from a range of therapeutic methods, including cognitive-behavioral techniques, psychodynamic ideas, trauma-focused work, solution-focused strategies, humanistic perspectives, and rational-emotive tools, tailoring interventions to each person’s needs. Taij focuses on helping clients address issues such as relationships, trauma and abuse, grief, anxiety, mood disorders, parenting and family challenges, intimacy-related concerns, and stress-related difficulties, and he aims to support clients toward greater functioning and personal goals with a compassionate, practical orientation.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Taij Johnson uses client-centered therapy to create a collaborative, empathetic space where the person’s goals and values guide the work; this approach helps with relationship concerns, self-esteem, and navigating life transitions. He also applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT - which focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related issues. In addition, mindfulness therapy is employed to help clients develop present-moment awareness and practical tools for managing emotional reactivity and persistent worry.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Taij will work together with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative exploration helps shape a tailored plan rather than a one-size-fits-all protocol.
Online therapy with Taij is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which provides flexibility for scheduling and continuity of care. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, access support from different locations, and maintain consistent progress even when in-person sessions are not possible.
