Cher Johnson

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 3.7 mi away • Aurora, CO


Many of the solutions we seek are already inside of us. They can be hard to find, but it is possible. Using talk therapy and emotional regulation skills, we’ll work together to identify goals and practices that fit with the life you’re eager to live. I will provide compassionate, steady support as you navigate anxiety, depression, family or relationship challenges, recovery from addiction, and the impacts of ADHD.

I tailor therapy to meet your individual needs and always consider cultural and social context. I also collaborate with other therapists to offer educational and support groups several times a year. Using a combination of physical, emotional, and cognitive tools, we’ll work to improve daily functioning, strengthen coping skills, and increase the joy and ease in your life.

I earned my Master’s in Counseling from Regis University, and I work with adults across a variety of life stages and transitions.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 6.2 mi away • Denver, CO


Welcome! I’m Ramon, a Drama Therapist supporting children, adults, and families. I believe creative arts offer a deeper language when words aren’t enough. No artistic skills are needed; we simply use play and metaphor to explore challenges from a comfortable distance. Children process emotions through play, adults bypass the analytical mind for authentic expression, and families discover new ways of connecting. My approach is evidence-based and open-minded, providing a judgment-free space to explore your experiences at your own pace.

Español

¡Bienvenidos! Soy Ramón, dramaterapeuta. Acompaño a niños, adultos y familias usando las artes creativas como un lenguaje profundo cuando las palabras no bastan. No hace falta ser artista; usamos el juego y la metáfora para explorar desafíos con comodidad. Los niños procesan emociones jugando, los adultos conectan con su expresión auténtica y las familias descubren nuevas formas de vincularse. Mi enfoque se basa en la evidencia y en una mente abierta, ofreciendo un espacio sin juicios para explorar tus experiencias a tu propio ritmo.
