Therapist

Virtual • Texas


Hi, I'm Vanity Johnson, LCSW. I'm a licensed clinical social worker who believes everyone deserves a safe space to feel heard, understood, and supported.


I work with children, adolescents, young adults, and families experiencing anxiety, stress, self-esteem concerns, family challenges, school-related concerns, life transitions, relationship difficulties, and the effects of difficult or traumatic experiences.


My background as a school social worker has given me extensive experience supporting young people and families navigating complex circumstances, including foster care, housing instability, pregnancy and parenting during adolescence, family challenges, and other life stressors.

I have a particular passion for supporting youth and young adults who have experienced trauma, exploitation, trafficking, or other adverse experiences.


I Can Help With

• Anxiety and stress • Self-esteem and confidence • Emotional regulation • School-related concerns • Family challenges • Relationships and boundaries • Life transitions • Trauma and difficult experiences • Foster care-related challenges • Youth and young adults affected by exploitation or trafficking • Parenting and family concerns


What I Want You to Know

You don't have to have everything figured out before starting therapy.

You don't have to know exactly what to say.

And you don't have to navigate difficult seasons alone.

We'll start where you are and work from there.


I'm looking forward to meeting you.

Some experiences change the way we see ourselves, our relationships, and the world around us.

Whether you're grieving a loss, recovering from trauma, navigating a mental health challenge, or trying to regain your footing after a difficult season of life, it's easy to feel overwhelmed by emotions that seem impossible to untangle on your own.

I'm Michelle, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with adults facing anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, grief, trauma, PTSD, and major life challenges. Through my experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings, as well as crisis intervention work, I've had the privilege of helping people navigate some of the most difficult moments of their lives. One thing I've learned is that healing rarely happens all at once—it happens one step, one conversation, and one breakthrough at a time.

My goal is to provide a space where you feel supported, understood, and empowered to move forward.

What I want my clients to know about me is that I genuinely believe therapy should feel like a space where you can exhale. Life can be overwhelming, and many people spend so much time trying to hold everything together that they rarely have a place where they feel fully seen, understood, and supported without judgment. My goal is to create that space for you.

I approach therapy with compassion, honesty, and collaboration. I don’t believe clients need to be “fixed.” I believe people often need support understanding themselves more deeply, healing from painful experiences, and learning healthier ways to navigate life, relationships, stress, and emotions. I work alongside my clients to help them reconnect with their values, build emotional resilience, and move toward a life that feels more authentic and fulfilling. (Headway)

My style is warm and supportive, but also practical. I want therapy to feel meaningful and useful, not like a place where you simply vent without growth. I often incorporate approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients recognize patterns that keep them stuck while building healthier coping skills and greater self-awareness.

I also understand how difficult it can be to ask for help in the first place. Many clients come into therapy carrying shame, self-doubt, anxiety, trauma, or the pressure of trying to meet everyone else’s expectations while neglecting their own needs. I strive to meet clients exactly where they are emotionally and help them feel safe enough to be honest about what they’re experiencing — even the parts they may have never shared out loud before.

You do not have to have everything figured out before you start. You simply have to be willing to show up as yourself, and we can work through the rest together.
