About Fquira

Fquira Johannes is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 20 years of experience based in North Carolina. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, and related issues. She also supports clients with work and career concerns, parenting strains, sleep and eating difficulties, and challenges around self-esteem and intimacy.

She describes therapy as active work that can feel steady or slow. Sessions may include laughter, tears, and anger as part of making progress. She asks clients to commit by showing up and making small steps toward their goals. The focus is on partnership - the client brings expertise about their life and the clinician brings structure and skills.

Her practice draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and client-centered methods. That often means noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors between sessions. Visual aids and simple activities are used when helpful, such as with clients who learn better with concrete examples.

Across two decades of work she has helped people manage mood symptoms, anxiety, bipolar concerns, substance issues, and post-traumatic stress symptoms. She integrates practical strategies to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. Sessions tend to emphasize clear goals and small, achievable steps.

She accepts international clients and conducts work in English. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How CBT and related methods are used in online work

Fquira frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify thought patterns that increase distress and to practice new responses. CBT sessions often include tracking thoughts, testing small behavior changes, and reviewing what worked between meetings.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening and reflecting so the client’s own goals guide the work. Mindfulness Therapy is used to help people notice physical sensations and present-moment experience without judgment, which can reduce reactivity to stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about needs, goals, and preferences and jointly decide which methods to try. Sessions can shift methods as progress or challenges emerge so the plan stays practical and focused.

The biography does not list specific session delivery formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals often adapt tools, worksheets, and between-session tasks for remote appointments to keep treatment structured and goal oriented.
