About Johnnie

Johnnie Gordon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and trauma. He writes plainly and listens carefully to what matters most to each person. He aims to make starting therapy feel straightforward and doable for worried parents and busy adults.

He brings four years of counseling experience and ongoing doctoral study in psychology to his work. That mix means he uses evidence-informed ideas while keeping sessions practical.

Background and approach

He shapes conversations to fit each client's situation rather than following a one-size-fits-all script. In sessions he focuses on building understanding and useful skills. He uses Narrative ideas to help people reframe their stories, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and actions, and attachment-based thinking to notice patterns in close relationships.

Cognitive Behavioral tools and client-centered listening also appear when they help move a person forward. Johnnie commonly addresses concerns such as grief, parenting stress, body image, addictions, and compassion fatigue. He also helps with communication problems, impulsivity, guilt and shame, and finding life purpose.

He explains concepts in everyday language and suggests small steps clients can try between sessions. He offers flexible online formats so therapy can fit into a busy life. He encourages a collaborative process where goals are picked together.

If someone wants clear guidance and steady support, he aims to provide a calm, practical space to work through change.

Online session options

How narrative and values-based work translate online

Johnnie often blends Narrative approaches with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-based ideas when working with clients. Narrative work looks at the stories people tell about themselves and helps name and reshape limiting storylines so daily life feels less stuck. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and taking small steps toward those values while learning to accept difficult feelings. Attachment-based ideas help spot repeated patterns in close relationships and try gentle, practical ways to change them.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. He treats the decision as a collaboration and checks in about what feels helpful. Together they set goals, try a strategy, and adjust based on what actually helps the client meet their aims.

Online therapy with him is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls allow fuller conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed, chat offers quick back-and-forth between sessions, and text messaging supports brief updates or reflections. These options are intended to make it easier to keep progress going around work, childcare, or other time pressures.
