About Tamika
Tamika M. Johnson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 14 years of experience based in Texas. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, parenting concerns, relationship strains, and related issues. Tamika speaks English and uses an approach that aims to be practical and person-focused.
She frames therapy around clear goals and steady progress. Sessions focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts and changing habits that get in the way of daily life. Tamika draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centered methods to help people identify patterns and try new responses.
Her background includes work with trauma and complex stress reactions, mood disorders, addiction concerns, and grief. She also supports people facing caregiving stress, chronic illness or pain, blended family challenges, and issues related to gender identity and LGBT concerns. She has experience with post-traumatic stress and self-harm-related struggles.
In sessions she uses elements of Emotionally-Focused Therapy, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing alongside CBT and client-centered work. The focus is on building practical skills, improving emotion awareness, and increasing day-to-day functioning. Tamika describes therapy as a step-by-step process where small improvements are noticed and used to guide the next steps.

How Tamika Uses Structured Approaches Online
Tamika often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test different ways of responding. CBT focuses on clear, practical exercises and short-term behavior changes that can reduce anxiety and improve mood. She also uses client-centered methods that prioritize the person’s concerns and pace, allowing the session to focus on what matters to the individual.Emotionally-Focused Therapy is used when exploring relationship patterns and strong emotions. EFT helps people notice interaction cycles and practice new ways of relating or responding to difficult feelings. These approaches can be used together so work stays focused and reasonably concrete rather than theoretical.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. Tamika will review goals, preferences, and daily routines with each person and recommend which methods to try first. She adjusts plans based on what helps, using brief skill practice and check-ins to see whether an approach is working.
