About Johnnie

Johnnie Gordon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with four years of clinical experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, depression, trauma and abuse, and related issues. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted.

He uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits and try different responses. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is one of the approaches he uses, alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based Therapy. He also draws on client-centered and emotionally focused methods as needed.

In sessions he focuses on concrete skills - noticing thought patterns, testing out new behaviors, and building coping strategies that fit daily life. He discusses communication, boundaries, and emotion regulation with people dealing with relationship strain, parenting stress, or grief. He also addresses issues such as body image, self-esteem, and impulsivity with straightforward exercises and homework when appropriate.

Johnnie frames treatment around the goals each person brings. He helps people identify short-term steps and practical tools for handling anxiety, addiction-related concerns, or work and career stress. He combines talk-based work with specific behavioral experiments and mindfulness practices to track progress.

How his approaches are used in online sessions

Johnnie uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts, test different responses, and build clear behavior changes. CBT is practical and often focuses on short exercises and homework to practice between meetings.

He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which emphasizes identifying personal values and taking committed actions even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. This approach can help with chronic anxiety, mood concerns, and life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy appears in his work to address patterns in close relationships and help people understand how past connections affect current interactions.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. He will discuss goals, symptoms, and preferences and then collaborate to choose which approaches to try first. Clients can expect the therapist to check in and adjust methods based on what is helping.

The original profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Talk with him during the matching process about which session length and rhythm would fit daily life best.
