Vanity Johnson

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.
