About Sebrina

Sebrina Johnson is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Michigan with 14 years of experience in the human services field. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship concerns, parenting and family issues, and challenges such as addiction, ADHD, and grief. She has experience with adolescents and adults and has provided both group and individual therapy in residential shelter programs and community mental-health agencies.

She uses a straightforward approach that focuses on practical problem solving. Sessions look at unhelpful thoughts and habits and try different ways of responding. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is part of her work, paired with client-centered techniques and solution-focused steps to help people move toward their goals.

Her background includes a master’s degree in Counseling from Spring Arbor University and many years working in community settings. That experience shapes how she structures sessions and follows up on progress. She invites participation and feedback so sessions remain focused and useful.

Sebrina aims to help people repair strained relationships and manage daily stressors more effectively. Conversations often include concrete skills for managing anxiety, anger, mood swings, and parenting challenges. She also uses motivational interviewing strategies when people want to change habits related to substance use or other behaviors.

Practical checks are part of each meeting: what worked since the last session, what felt hard, and one small step to try before the next visit. This keeps sessions grounded and helps people notice what changes actually make a difference.

How her approaches translate to online work

She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT sessions typically include clear goals, short exercises to try between meetings, and practice of new responses for anxiety, depression, and stress.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to make space for the client's perspective and to support self-directed problem solving. That approach emphasizes listening and collaboration so the client shapes what is worked on. Emotionally-Focused Therapy is used when relationship patterns and strong emotions are central; it helps identify feelings and interaction cycles that keep problems going.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. She will discuss options and adjust based on the client's goals, preferences, and what is most useful in early sessions. The process is collaborative and focused on practical steps the client can take between meetings.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. These practical benefits help people keep consistent progress while balancing work, parenting, and other obligations.
