About Brandon

Brandon Johnson is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who focuses on relationship and family concerns. He offers straightforward, practical help for people dealing with relationship conflict, parenting stress, grief, trauma, anxiety, or questions about sexuality. Brandon is based in Texas and works in English.

He uses clear methods that aim to make emotional patterns easier to understand. Brandon often draws on attachment-focused work to look at how family and partner bonds shape reactions and choices.

Background and approach

He also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help partners express needs and rebuild connection. For trauma-related concerns he integrates Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, a structured method that can reduce the hold of painful memories. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is another tool he uses to identify unhelpful thinking and build different habits.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people accept difficult feelings while committing to values-based action. Brandon describes his style as affirming and practical. Sessions are tailored to what a family or individual needs right now, with a focus on small changes that make daily life easier.

He brings eight years of clinical experience as a LMFT - Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist - licensed in Texas (TX LMFT 205278). People choosing Brandon can expect collaborative work that focuses on relationships, parenting, and recovery from trauma. He aims to create a clear plan with steps that fit each person or family’s life.

How Brandon’s Approaches Work Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice hard thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on values and small actions that move life forward, which can be useful for stress, anxiety, and coping with change.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape behavior and safety in close relationships. This approach helps partners and family members see their interaction patterns and try new ways of connecting.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Brandon will discuss your goals and preferences and recommend methods that fit your situation. That decision is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. These options let families and individuals fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and use a format that feels comfortable for them.

Practically, online therapy can make it easier to include partners in different locations, follow up between sessions with messages, and access focused therapies like EMDR or EFT without travel. Licensed professionals tailor these tools to each person’s needs and goals.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
