Therapists in Dayton, WY

“You’re braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.” -A.A. Mine Thanks for clicking on my page! Often in the hectic pace of everyday life we may not feel there is time to address things we are currently facing. Counseling is an excellent way to designate a time, with the assistance of an unbiased professional, to assist you in reaching your goals. The goal of therapy is to feel good, not only about yourself, but the life you are living. Life can get complicated, so having someone in your corner can be helpful. Therapy also allows one to view things through a different lens. This new perspective can get us to make changes, or view things differently, which can be key to making long-term changes or impact. I view counseling is a collaborative, dynamic process, based on the therapeutic alliance between therapist and client. Through careful assessment of client concerns, I tailor the therapeutic approach to the specific needs of each individual. My approach to counseling is both direct yet warm and non judgmental with every client. I am gentle in my approach to make sure the client feels heard and validated. I employ a variety of diverse therapeutic approaches. These techniques include Person-Centered, CBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, DBT, MI. My personal philosophy is based on the idea that counseling is most effective with genuine, honest, and open communication. I believe we are all worthy of respect and that is important in the counseling relationship. I hope to dive deeper into what is going on in your life, and get you back on track. Hopefully you will leave each session feeling better and with some new tools and workable takeaways. I am excited to be with Betterhelp to begin working with those in need of healing. When I am not in session, I like to fill free time with family & friends. I love exploring the outdoors, staying active (with spin, weightlifting & yoga) and traveling. I have a passion for volunteering with at risk populations in my city and am an avid animal rescuer/advocate. You have made a big first step in your journey, I look forward to hearing from you! Feel free to contact me below to set up your first session, take care!

Hello! My name is Kelli Johnson. I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Sheridan, Wyoming. I specialize in treating symptoms of depression and anxiety and addressing issues of loneliness, unease, women's health, and life transitions. I tailor my approaches to counseling based on you and your needs. I employ an integrative approach to healing utilizing tools from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), somatic body based techniques ( informed by both psychology and my training as a yoga teacher) mindfulness, breath work, narrative therapy (finding power and purpose in your story) and bibliotherapy (this one is for you, bookworms!). I see my role as a counselor as a collaborator. You are the expert of your own experience. Through my professional training, clinical work over the past decade, and life experiences, I have acquired frameworks, skills, and tools to help you recognize your own beauty and strength, tap into sources of resilience, grow from challenges, center and soothe yourself, and to move forward in your life with intention, wisdom, and peace. I believe the key to productive work in therapy is the counselor client relationship. I am committed to building a strong working alliance with you grounded in respect, acceptance, empathy, and authenticity. I believe we are all fellow travelers, making our respective ways in the world and I would be honored to walk with you awhile on your journey! Kindest regards, Kelli

I am a Director/Clinical Director, of a wellness center focused on Child, Adolescent, Family counseling and case management. I have worked in the rehabilitation industry since 1987 including operation of a multi service rehabilitation center specializing in dual diagnosis, developmental disability and Acquired Brain Injury. My scholarly focus has always centered on child/adolescent and family counseling with a specialization in multicultural and disadvantaged populations. My specific specialization is rooted in early attachment systems and theory though I am somewhat eclectic in my choice(s) of foundational theory that I employ in practice. I wrote the clinical curriculum for a Freestanding Wilderness Adventure Program for Native American Youth experiencing problems with substance abuse and addiction which included intensive family and extended family work. My practice today as a Licensed Professional Counselor in Wyoming is focused on working with children and families including Play therapy with children and adults, psycho-social group and individual therapies, couples counseling, family counseling. I have worked in and developed our agency's Telehealth Platform since 2016 and have always felt the possibilities of reaching rural and isolated populations makes Telemedicine a perfect fit. My counseling style is benched in person centered care. I believe the cornerstones of effective therapies begin with honesty, dignity and respect. Because of my background, diversity and cultural sensitivity are also important to the healing mission. I am goal directed in my approach to therapy combining modalities of cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic and rational-emotive counseling tempered with a sense of humor (laughter is the best medicine) and professionalism. I look forward to working with you!
