Sherri Johnson, LCSW-C

Sherri Johnson is a Licensed Certified Social Worker in Maryland with 26 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, career struggles, and anger. Sessions are presented in a straightforward, practical way that focuses on what matters now.

Johnson draws on long experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and challenges such as addiction and ADHD. She also addresses intimacy-related issues, parenting strain, sleep and eating concerns, and complex situations like adoption and attachment issues. Her work includes support for LGBT concerns and caregiver stress.

Her approach combines client-centered listening with structured methods. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques are applied when people need skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance.

Attachment-based ideas guide conversations about relationship patterns and how early bonds affect current reactions. Mindfulness practices are offered as simple skills for grounding and reducing reactivity. Motivational interviewing is used when people want help finding motivation and making change.

Johnson frames work as collaborative. She focuses on clear goals and practical steps people can use between sessions. Her online profile notes sessions involve a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and cost varies with location.

To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site. International clients are not accepted; sessions are offered in English and conducted from Maryland.
