About Jenny
Jenny Johnson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado who helps people facing addiction, anxiety, depression, and trauma. She focuses on practical steps that reduce overwhelm and restore a sense of control. Her approach is warm and conversational, and she aims to treat each person with respect and empathy.
She has eight years of experience supporting adults coping with substance use in themselves or among loved ones. She also works with those struggling with mood disorders, panic, and the aftereffects of traumatic experiences.
Background and approach
Family and relationship issues are part of her practice, especially when addiction or communication problems cause strain. Jenny favors a client-centered style that begins by listening and learning what matters to each person. From there she collaborates on a plan tailored to the person’s life and goals.
She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thinking and on mindfulness and acceptance methods to ease painful feelings. Sessions are conducted in English and offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Costs vary with location and therapist availability and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
Her work emphasizes real-world skills - coping strategies, clearer communication, and steps toward healthier routines. She aims to help people move past feeling stuck so they can make steady changes and find more ease in daily life.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people accept difficult feelings while committing to actions that match their values. It’s useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through clear, practical exercises. It often helps with anxiety, mood disorders, and addictive patterns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and simple practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotion regulation.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jenny listens to each person’s concerns and goals, then suggests approaches that fit their needs and preferences. Together they adjust methods over time so the work stays useful and relevant.
Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy schedules or caring responsibilities. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction, phone sessions offer a simpler option, and live chat or text-based messaging can be easier for quick check-ins or for those who prefer writing. These formats make it possible to practice new skills between sessions and keep momentum when life gets busy.
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.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
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.
