About me

I am licensed clinical therapist for the state of Minnesota. I have 24 years of working as a therapist and continue to be inspired by the resiliency I see in people. I have experience in working with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, coping with grief and loss, depression, and many other areas of life and mental health issues. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. For those who are interested, I am happy to incorporate the person's faith beliefs into therapy as I have worked primarily for Christian based clinics over my career. My main goal is to help others' discover their individual strengths because everyone has them.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Julie 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.

Julie has been easy to speak to about sensitive subjects. It is difficult for me to be vulnerable, and Julie sets a tone on our calls that allows some of those defenses to be lowered. I’m grateful.

Julie is easy to talk to and speaks from the heart. She is not afraid to share her own life experiences if she feels it will help you. I very much look forward to my weekly call.
