Naeemah Johnson , LICSW

Naeemah Johnson is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) who treats therapy as a collaborative process, meeting each person where they are and shaping goals together. She focuses on helping people manage anxiety and depressive symptoms, rebuild self-esteem and self-worth, navigate work-related stress, and address relationship conflict including breakups and divorce. She also supports individuals coping with family discord, grief and loss, and experiences related to trauma.

Her practice emphasizes self-awareness, acceptance, and openness while drawing on clients' strengths. She takes a strength-based, non-judgmental, and culturally competent approach, blending flexibility with outcome-oriented, evidence-based methods and a belief that recovery is possible. Naeemah works with clients to set realistic treatment goals and to create practical plans that support steady progress.

The aim of her work is to help people develop a healthier perception of themselves, strengthen the relationships around them, and pursue a more fulfilling life. Through structured, goal-focused work and collaborative planning, she supports clients in building skills to manage current challenges and prepare for future growth.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Naeemah Johnson draws from several evidence-based approaches to tailor treatment to each person. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify personal values, accept difficult thoughts and feelings, and take committed action toward meaningful goals - it can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns shape current connections and emotional responses; it supports work on intimacy, attachment concerns, and family or relationship conflicts. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and collaboration, creating space for clients to build self-understanding and strengthen self-worth.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Naeemah works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts plans as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and shorter interactions can occur via live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, to maintain continuity during transitions, and to access licensed professionals from different locations, while preserving the collaborative and goal-focused nature of in-person care.
