I am licensed in California with 27 years of professional work experience. I enjoy counseling all ages with a wide variety of issues. Working with couples and others who are struggling in their relationships or lacking in motivation, confidence or self-esteem are also areas that I enjoy. My special area of expertise is grief and loss. This, after spending 20 years directing a bereavement program following the death of my young husband. I am also an Art therapist that enriches my work with those who are interested.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Carol Johnson. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Aside from my current life situation, Carol and I share a lot of interest which helps me feel more comfortable talking to her. She listens and makes me feel heard. She’s a great therapist that connects with me on a personal level
