About Ingrid

Ingrid Johnson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people manage stress and anxiety. She focuses on practical steps people can use day to day to feel steadier and more in control. Ingrid aims to listen first and work with each person to find what helps them most.

She uses a person-centered approach that treats the client as the expert on their life. That means she asks questions, reflects what she hears, and follows the client's lead while offering ideas that fit. Ingrid also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses in everyday situations.

Her practice emphasizes clear, usable tools for coping. Clients can expect to talk through specific problems and leave with simple strategies to try between sessions. She often focuses on stress reduction, sleep and eating concerns, and ways to manage emotional overwhelm.

Ingrid brings over two decades of counseling experience in Texas. She describes therapy as a partnership and aims to respond to messages promptly, most often in the evenings. Outside work she enjoys jogging, walking her dog, and spending time with her spouse and two daughters.

People choosing her work can expect a calm, nonjudgmental space and a practical orientation. She encourages clients to build on strengths they already have while learning new skills for handling life changes and relationship strains.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on following the person's lead, listening closely, and offering support that fits the client's goals; online sessions can preserve that collaborative tone by letting clients talk through what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be practiced in weekly sessions and applied to daily life. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes building skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance, helping people handle intense feelings and improve coping over time.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, needs, and preferences and recommend methods that seem most useful. This is a collaborative choice and can change as therapy progresses.

Because the biography does not list specific session formats, please confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also lets conversations focus on concrete skills practice, homework, and problem solving that transfer directly to everyday routines.
