Ingrid Johnson, LPC

Ingrid Johnson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 21 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, and life transitions. Ingrid aims to create a calm, non-judgmental space where clients can sort through daily challenges and build practical skills.

Her work is grounded in a client-centered approach that treats the person as the expert on their own life. She pairs that perspective with cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Sessions often focus on small, doable changes that improve day-to-day functioning.

Ingrid has a long record helping clients with grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, ADHD, sleep and eating concerns, and caregiver stress. She also gives attention to adoption and foster care issues, attachment concerns, and aging and geriatric issues when those topics come up. Her background includes experience in schools and community settings that shaped her practical, resource-focused style.

She describes therapy as a partnership and works with clients to uncover tools they already have. Ingrid typically responds to messages in the evening when possible and explains occasional delays while she attends to other responsibilities. Outside of work she enjoys jogging, walking her dog, and family life with her spouse and two daughters.

Clients considering sessions in Texas can expect a straightforward, down-to-earth approach that emphasizes clear steps, coping strategies, and steady support.

How Ingrid’s Approaches Fit Online Care

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and helping people name their goals and strengths. In practice this means the therapist follows the client’s lead and offers reflection, questions, and encouragement to move forward. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people notice patterns of thought and behavior and try small experiments to change them; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, adds skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication when feelings run high.

Finding the right method is part of the work. Ingrid treats choosing an approach as a collaborative decision based on the person’s goals, current struggles, and what has been helpful before. She will talk through options and adjust techniques as therapy progresses so the plan stays practical and relevant.

The therapist’s biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins can slot into a lunch break, phone calls use less bandwidth than video, and remote sessions avoid travel time. Licensed professionals can use these flexible setups to focus on skill practice, problem-solving, and steady support without asking clients to rearrange their entire day.
