About Sebrina

Sebrina Johnson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 14 years in the human services field. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting stress, grief, addiction, ADHD, and coping with life changes. Her approach is warm and accepting, with an emphasis on helping clients take practical steps toward their goals.

She aims to meet people where they are with a nonjudgmental attitude. Sessions focus on understanding immediate needs and building concrete skills. Sebrina combines cognitive-behavioral techniques with realistic problem-solving to help clients manage symptoms and routines.

Her background includes work in residential shelter programs and community mental-health agencies. She has provided both group and individual therapy to adolescents and adults who have experienced trauma, anxiety, and depression. That variety informs a flexible style that adapts to different situations.

Sebrina describes her counseling style as warm, compassionate, and respectful. She encourages participation and lets people express themselves in whatever way helps them make progress. The counselor role she offers is one of support and guidance while clients build their own solutions.

Therapy with her typically focuses on practical goals like improving relationships, increasing coping skills, and addressing painful memories. She explains techniques clearly and stays open-minded about what will work best for each person. The aim is steady, real-world change rather than quick fixes.

How Sebrina’s approaches guide online work

Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people address painful memories and reactions that follow traumatic events. It often involves revisiting difficult experiences at a steady pace and learning coping skills to reduce intense reactions.

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and acceptance. The therapist follows the client’s lead, reflects what is said, and helps people find their own solutions to problems with supportive feedback.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact. It teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking patterns and build routines that reduce anxiety, depression, and anger.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and will try methods that fit those priorities. That collaborative process helps shape which techniques are used over time.

If you are considering online therapy, check the session formats offered before scheduling. Confirm current options during the matching process so you know how sessions are arranged. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Licensed professionals can use the same therapeutic approaches online to practice skills, process emotions, and set achievable goals, while adapting exercises to fit remote sessions.

These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing trauma-focused therapy does not mean a therapist holds a specific certification such as TF-CBT, EMDR or CPT.
