Kelli Johnson, LCMHC, LPC - Therapist in Wyoming

About Kelli

Kelli Johnson is a licensed professional counselor in Wyoming who brings eight years of clinical experience to her work. She practices as an LPC and LCMHC and focuses on helping people facing depression, anxiety, grief, and life changes. Kelli writes with a warm, collaborative tone and centers the relationship with each person she sees.

Kelli aims to tailor sessions to the individual. She uses tools from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy - ACT, attachment-based ideas, client-centered listening, mindfulness work, and narrative approaches.

Background and approach

Her sessions are straightforward and practical. She encourages people to name what matters and to try small changes that build strength over time. Her practice attends to many everyday struggles, including stress, parenting concerns, relationship patterns, self-esteem, and caregiver fatigue.

She also works with issues such as addictions, body image, postpartum mood changes, and family of origin matters. Kelli pays attention to how past attachments shape current feelings and choices. Clients can expect conversational sessions that focus on what the person wants to change.

Kelli helps people notice patterns, practice present-moment skills, and make values-based decisions. She aims to offer clear tools rather than jargon. Throughout the work she emphasizes respect, acceptance, and honesty.

Kelli sees therapy as a partnership where the person leads and the therapist brings structure and support. Her goal is to help clients move forward with intention, steadiness, and clearer direction.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Kelli uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy - ACT to help people clarify what matters most to them and to take small, practical steps toward those values. ACT is useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions where actions can align with personal goals.

She also draws on attachment-based ideas, which look at how early connections influence current relationships and emotions. This approach helps people notice patterns in closeness, trust, and communication so they can try different ways of relating in daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kelli collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques through discussion and trial so the plan matches what actually helps the client.

Online sessions offer flexibility for busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations from home, while phone sessions can be less formal and easier to fit in. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in between sessions or use shorter, focused exchanges when that is most helpful. These formats make it easier to use mindfulness exercises, values planning, and skill practice across real life situations.

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.

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.
