About Maggie
Maggie Johnson is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar mood concerns, and substance use challenges. She offers straightforward, practical support for everyday struggles like sleep problems, low self-esteem, anger, grief, and career stress. Maggie writes plainly and keeps sessions focused on what matters to each person.
Her work draws on cognitive behavioral ideas alongside client-centered and mindfulness-informed approaches. That means she helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, practice different ways of responding, and try small experiments to see what changes help. She also uses motivational interviewing and narrative techniques when helpful to clarify values and reframe difficult stories about the past.
Maggie has nine years of experience and holds the Minnesota LPCC credential. She brings a relational lens to therapy, paying attention to how connections with others shape current problems. This can be useful for people coping with relationship strain, family issues, or attachment concerns.
Sessions are practical and collaborative. Maggie works with each person to set goals, try strategies between meetings, and adjust the plan based on what helps. She emphasizes skills that fit into day-to-day life, such as grounding, thought challenging, and mindful awareness.
People seeking help with eating or sleep issues, addiction, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, or compassion fatigue will find topics she commonly addresses. She practices in Minnesota and offers sessions in English.
How Maggie’s approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful working relationship. In this approach the therapist follows the person’s lead, reflects what they say, and helps them feel understood so they can explore what matters most.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It involves learning simple tools to notice unhelpful thoughts, test them, and try alternative behaviors - skills that help with anxiety, depression, sleep, and mood regulation.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention skills and calm-awareness practices. These tools can reduce reactivity to stress and help with anger, cravings, and the ups and downs of mood conditions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, try methods collaboratively, and adjust the plan based on what feels most helpful and practical.
For online therapy logistics please confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and letting people join from wherever they have a quieter environment. It can also support steady homework practice between sessions, such as brief mindfulness exercises or CBT worksheets that are reviewed together during meetings.
