Hartselle is the second most populated city in the Morgan County in the state of Alabama. Although it is considered part of the larger, more metropolitan city of Decatur, Hartselle established its own independent personality after its incorporation in 1875.
Even though a fire destroyed many of the older buildings in 1916, the city’s resiliency is represented in the variety of mental health services it offers. Much like the city of Hartselle is home to the Lifeguard EMS for the entire county, these therapy services are a lifeline that allows equal access for every citizen regardless of their personal finances.

Having to face difficult challenges is an expected aspect of life. However, feeling overwhelmed or consumed by these challenges can cause negative feelings such as stress, anxiety, depression, and hopelessness. These feelings can negatively impact your ability to function well and can interfere with your overall quality of life. Many people experience these negative feelings, and it is okay to seek and utilize resources that can assist you during difficult times. Counseling is my passion, and if I can assist someone in overcoming a difficult challenge, then I have fulfilled my purpose. As a counselor, it is my goal to help you achieve your self-determined goals while providing opportunities for problem solving and growth. With the use of therapeutic interventions, I intend to provide guidance in helping individuals gain self-awareness, clarity, and understanding in one’s life views and choices. I am currently a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), and I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology and a Master’s Degree in Clinical Psychology. I use person-centered, holistic, multicultural, and a variety of therapeutic approaches and techniques when helping individuals, but I primarily use evidence-based techniques including cognitive-behavioral therapy, rational emotive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and solution-focused counseling. It will be my pleasure helping you live your best life.

Nicole Jasmine Johnson
I’m so glad you’re here. I believe therapy should be a safe and encouraging space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and patterns without judgment. My approach is exclusively text-based, offering a structured yet flexible way to process emotions, recognize recurring thought patterns, and create meaningful change—all at your own pace. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, and Mindfulness with the Patterns & Pathways (PAP) framework, a method designed to help you: ✔ Recognize emotional and behavioral patterns that may be holding you back. ✔ Reframe unhelpful thought loops and develop a healthier mindset. ✔ Strengthen self-awareness and create new pathways aligned with your goals. Why Text-Based Therapy? More Space for Reflection – Writing gives you time to slow down, process your emotions, and gain deeper insight without feeling pressured to respond immediately. Structured Yet Flexible – You can revisit our conversations anytime, helping you track patterns, recognize progress, and reinforce growth. Less Pressure, More Openness – Many people find it easier to express themselves in writing, allowing for deeper self-exploration and clarity. Practical & Actionable – Our sessions will focus on recognizing patterns, reframing unhelpful thoughts, and developing tools you can apply in daily life. I know that therapy doesn’t have to feel heavy all the time—growth can be empowering, even uplifting, and sometimes a little humor helps too! Whether you're navigating anxiety, self-doubt, life transitions, or relationship challenges, I’m here to support you. Let’s work together to create the change you’re looking for—one message at a time.
