Telishia Johnson

Telishia Johnson

Therapist

Virtual • Spokane, WA


Hi, I'm TJ — a Marriage and Family Therapist and the founder of A Better You Wellness, LLC. I work with couples, individuals, families, and teens (17+) across Texas, offering both in-person sessions in the Fort Worth area and teletherapy statewide.

My training is deeply relational. I graduated from North Central University with a degree in Marriage and Family Therapy, and I hold additional certifications as a Certified Trauma Professional, Master NLP Practitioner, and Hypnotherapist — training that shapes how I think about healing beyond the surface level. I specialize in relationship challenges including communication breakdowns, infidelity and trust repair, and premarital counseling, along with anxiety, depression, trauma, codependency, career stress, life transitions, and self-esteem.

What sets my approach apart is a philosophy of integration. I believe that meaningful, lasting healing rarely comes from one method alone. The experiences that shape us — especially the hard ones — leave imprints on the mind and body, and I honor both in my work. Clients often tell me they feel heard from the very first conversation, and that's something I take seriously.

James Walker

Therapist

Virtual • Washington


I enjoy learning about ways we can change and understand our human existence. We are thinking, feeling and doing beings. Cognitive behavioral therapy provides a framework to identify ways to do it differently and better. Trauma treatment modalities like EMDR may support processing neurological and physiological reactions and being able to feel secure and safe while staying connected to others more fully. Our story is just that; we write it and edit it. We get to choose the chapters and path of our lives, through the unknowns, mysteries and celebrations.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Yakima

Searching for therapists in Yakima starts with knowing what kind of support you want from therapy. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or life changes. As you compare therapists, look for training, listed specialties, and therapy approaches that match your needs. A therapist’s bio can show whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care, and what you can expect in sessions.

In a smaller city like Yakima, local therapist availability may be more limited than in larger Washington markets. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Washington. When narrowing your search, consider appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation before you book. Reading profiles can also help you compare communication style, session structure, and experience with concerns that matter to you.

Therapy in Yakima can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find therapists who match your needs, accept your plan, and have availability for new clients. You can enter your insurance details, review estimated session costs upfront, browse therapist bios, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:

* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
