Bipolar disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Colorado Springs, CO

Hello! My name is Jenny Johnson and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Addiction Counselor (LAC) in Colorado Springs. I have been in the counseling field for 8 years, and I have worked with people who struggle with substance use problems, or who have loved ones that are struggling with substance use, people who battle with mental and emotional turmoil, and trauma survivors.

I have over 30 years of direct clinical experience. I work remotely at this time, and blend cognitive behavioral techniques with psychodynamic techniques, including dream work (if interested). I work with adults with a wide range of challenges. I cannot make your anxiety disappear; however, I can help you change your relationship to it.

I’m a licensed mental health therapist who works with adolescents & adults! I believe therapy should feel empowering, collaborative, and genuinely supportive.

My approach is warm, open-minded, & nonjudgmental. I want you to feel safe being your full self in session, and I aim to meet you where you are while helping you grow in ways that feel meaningful and sustainable!

I earned my undergraduate degree in Psychology from Purdue University and my Master’s degree in Social Work from IUPUI, with a focus on addiction and mental health. My professional background includes two years in an outpatient mental health setting and one year working in residential treatment for substance use disorders. These experiences have shaped my understanding of how complex mental health can be—and how important it is to treat the whole person, not just symptoms.

I work with people experiencing anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, emotional regulation difficulties, and life transitions. I enjoy helping clients explore patterns, build coping skills, and reconnect with their strengths. My style is collaborative and flexible, and I like to be creative in sessions when it’s helpful—whether that’s through reflective exercises, visual tools, or thinking outside the box to help things “click.”

I am a holistic therapist who believes meaningful healing happens through authentic connection, self-awareness, and a compassionate understanding of the experiences that shape us. I was born and raised in Colorado and received my undergraduate education from California State University and Masters of Science from National University in 2019. I bring a trauma-informed, relational, and integrative approach to my work with clients. I specialize in supporting adults navigating childhood trauma and attachment wounds, grief, life transitions, and the process of reconnecting with themselves. My practice also includes specialized support for psychedelic preparation and integration and Colorado’s emerging natural medicine landscape, when appropriate and within my scope of practice. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe enough to be honest, curious enough to explore, and supported as you move toward a life that feels more authentically your own.

Reaching out for therapy can feel like a big step, especially when you’ve spent a long time trying to manage everything on your own. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and supported without judgment. I believe therapy should be a place where you can be honest about what you’re experiencing while feeling empowered to make meaningful changes at your own pace.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship concerns, stress, and challenges related to substance use and recovery. I also have experience supporting military service members and their families and understand that the experiences that bring someone to therapy are often complex and deeply personal.

My approach is trauma-informed, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that you are the expert on your own life. Rather than simply telling you what you should do, I work alongside you to understand where you are, identify what may be keeping you stuck, and develop practical tools that fit your life and your goals.

Maybe you've tried to manage it on your own and are still struggling. That's not a failure. That's a sign that what you need is a space where you get to discover your own strengths. Whether you're working through something related to substance use, depression, anxiety, or just life stress, the answers aren't somewhere outside of you. They're within you. I have nearly 30 years of experience helping people unlock their own potential. I accept most insurances and booking is simple. A free 15-minute consultation is the easiest first step — no commitment, just a conversation to see if it's the right fit. Click below to schedule yours.

I hold a Master’s Degree in Clinical Social Work from Walden University, with a concentration in trauma-informed care. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a Licensed Addiction Counselor (LAC), as well as certified in Art Therapy, Play Therapy, and Sandplay Therapy. My early career centered on supporting children and families navigating trauma, substance use, and instability, as well as individuals transitioning from incarceration and reintegrating into their communities. These experiences continue to shape my person-centered, integrative approach to care.

In my practice, I support adults and children through an individualized, holistic lens. My therapeutic philosophy draws from Person-Centered, Holistic, and Psychodynamic therapies—approaches that value empathy, self-awareness, and exploration of the connections between past and present. I believe all people have an innate capacity for growth, resilience, and healing when they are met with safety, compassion, and curiosity.

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, parent coach, and former educator with 36 years of experience helping children, teens, adults, couples, and families move from conflict and overwhelm toward greater calm, confidence, and connection. I support clients navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism, emotional regulation, school and family challenges, divorce, workplace stress, career transitions, and burnout. My approach is warm, direct, practical, and collaborative. I also help parents reduce power struggles, strengthen communication, and respond to their children with greater clarity, confidence, and consistency.

I provide a calm, supportive space grounded in trust, empathy, and respect. My approach honors each person’s uniqueness, recognizing that no two journeys are the same. Therapy is a collaborative process where your voice, experiences, and goals guide our work. I focus on self-empowerment, helping you build insight, confidence, and resilience while moving at a pace that feels right for you. Whether you are seeking healing, growth, or clarity, my goal is to support meaningful change in a way that feels authentic, steady, and aligned with who you are.
