Dr. Erika Johnson has been more than amazing for my family! She was very, very good with our daughter. After seeing a few other therapist, she quickly built a relationship with not only our daughter, but my husband and I as well. She helped us get our lives back. I could not be more grateful to have this wonderful person here to guide us. More...

Since opening my own private practice, Perceptions LLC, in 2013 we have partnered with Mindful Connections Mental Health and Dr. Johnson in a myriad of ways. We have worked together for marketing purposes, shared office space, and referred clients to each other throughout the years. We have even had the opportunity to share clients in consultative and conjoint therapies. There are few clinicians I would trust as highly as I do Dr. Johnson. She is confident, compassionate, and extremely competent. She excels in particular in the areas of group therapy and personality disorders, and she has an intense passion for providing access to mental health services to those who normally would not be able to utilize those types of services. A culturally competent and skilled practitioner, I have never doubted in her ability to handle clients with unique experiences. Perceptions LLC works extensively with the LGBT population, a frequently marginalized and often under-represented community, and we have referred several of our clients to Dr. Johnson, trusting completely that our clients will receive compassionate and considerate care. We look forward to continuing to grow our partnership together with Mindful Connections Mental Health, and are eternally grateful to have such a talented and trusted resource to work side by side with in efforts to improve mental health for our communities.

Dr. K is a compassionate and knowledgeable therapist. Starting therapy is not the easiest thing, and her ability to identify key areas of growth while maintaining a good relationship continues to impress me. Over the time I've known Dr K (or Johnson, now!) I've seen her commitment to ethical and responsible--yet somehow still FUN-- approach to treatment. Although I would say her real strength lies in devising creative cognitive behavioral interventions, I have also participated in psychodramas and other group modalities under her direction. I know when I go to her with a problem, she won't let me 'get away' with not exploring it deeply, but she has this non- judgmental way about challenging you. Highly recommended!! More...

What do you love most about your job?
The best part of my job is meeting the wonderful clients who come through my door. I have the amazing opportunity to watch each of my clients grow through their therapeutic experiences and to see their lives change in some of the most positive ways. -Dr. Johnson
What inspired you to start your own business?
I worked for a period of time at a community mental health center that provided counseling for low income clients. I enjoyed the interactions I had and the difference the center made, but I wanted to be able to provide a more "one-on one" experience for clients who were in need of guidance and understanding. It seems the mental health field has small, expensive private practices or large hospital types of settings for those looking for help. I wanted to be able to provide something in between.
Why should our clients choose you?
It is important that clients are comfortable with the counselor they are seeing. Ultimately, they should choose me, if they are comfortable with me and feel my experience, credentials, and interactions with them are going to meet their needs.
