Welcome!
Are you ready for a truly transformative therapy experience?
I’m Troy—a therapist who “gets it.” With extensive expertise in LGBTQ+ identities, sexuality, non-conventional relationships, and gender transitions, I offer a unique, affirming approach that helps you feel seen, understood, and supported. My goal is to provide a space where you can explore your identity, navigate challenges, and grow into the most authentic version of yourself.
My Approach:
I bring a compassionate and empowering style to therapy, combining evidence-based techniques with a deep understanding of queer experiences. I aim to help clients connect with their strengths, clarify their goals, and build a meaningful path forward. Many clients have shared that they’ve struggled to find a therapist who truly understands them—until now.
Why Work With Me?
As someone who has dedicated their career to LGBTQ+ mental health, I bring a level of understanding, expertise, and authenticity that’s hard to find. I’ve guided countless clients through complex journeys of self-discovery and healing, and I’m here to help you too. Whether you’re just beginning to explore your identity or looking for support through life’s transitions, you’re in the right place.
About Me:
Beyond my professional expertise, I’m someone who believes in the power of human connection, authenticity, and humor to heal and transform. My clients describe me as approachable, insightful, and someone who truly “gets it.” Therapy with me is not only effective but also a space where you can feel free to show up exactly as you are.
Let’s get started. I look forward to connecting with you!

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Troy 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.
I was very nervous when deciding to open up a vulnerable side of my life. I was uncertain, anxious, and hesitant to open up about the painful experiences I have been through. However working with Troy has made the difference. He helped me steadily open up in a manner that has been soothing and insightful. I am now looking at my whole experience not from a standpoint of pain and fear but rather from a perspective of experience and knowledge.
