Terra Johnson
Psychotherapist, Registered Nurse
(she/her)
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor Associate and Registered Nurse in the State of Washington. I practice evidence-based psychology to help you achieve your goals and lasting change. You will find my approach to therapy is very relational and collaborative, working with you to understand your story, your perspectives, and your aspirations. Together we will explore and learn about why you do the things you do, to gain some understanding of patterns that may be keeping you stuck. As a registered nurse I have witnessed the detrimental effects of living with - and trying to avoid - physical and emotional pain. The strain often wreaks havoc on our emotional and physical health. Thus, I utilize a “whole” person approach to therapy aimed at integrating physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual forms of well-being to develop a deeper understanding of ourselves on all these levels.
I support client’s individual goals and needs by drawing from relational psychotherapy, narrative therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, interpersonal therapy, attachment theory, and neurobiology perspectives. I earned a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Washington, and a Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology from The Seattle School of Theology & Psychology. I am committed to learning and growing professionally and personally, staying current with evidence-based therapeutic practices.
Counseling is a safe place to help you gain your footing, to heal and grow into more of who you were created to be, and to develop the capacity to experience true aliveness. I have been helped immeasurably through my own therapeutic pilgrimage with a trained and trusted guide. I consider it a privilege to come alongside you in this sacred work. You will be welcomed and accepted, just as you are.
I work with adults 18+ and up.
