Tina Johnson, LCSW

Tina Johnson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Mississippi with nine years of practice. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, parenting strain, relationship difficulties, grief, trauma and abuse, and work-related concerns. Tina also focuses on issues such as control, guilt and shame, forgiveness, self-esteem, and women's concerns.

Her style is direct and rooted in listening. Sessions often begin with practical goals and clear steps to manage strong emotions like anger or panic. She uses approaches that encourage noticing what matters to the client and trying different behaviors to reduce distress.

Tina draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking. She also uses client-centered methods to keep the conversation grounded in the client's priorities and perspective. Mindfulness strategies are introduced to help with stress, anxiety, and staying present during high emotion.

She has worked in settings that involved crisis intervention and child protective concerns, and brings that experience to clients who need focused problem-solving around parenting, safety, and practical resources. Her background includes a Master of Social Work from the University of Southern Mississippi and licensure as MS LCSW.

People who come for help often want straightforward tools for everyday life: calmer responses to anger, clearer boundaries at work or home, or ways to cope after loss. Tina aims to help people develop skills they can use between sessions and to encourage realistic steps toward change.
