About Taij
Taij Johnson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in North Carolina with seven years of experience. He works with adults on a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting challenges, and anger. Sessions focus on practical steps people can use between meetings.
Before becoming a counselor, he worked in mental health at entry level roles from high school onward. He provided hands-on support in group homes and assisted living, worked as a high-risk intervention technician in schools, and served as a Protective Services social worker. Those roles gave him direct experience with complex life stress and crisis response.
Johnson trained further and earned a master's degree in counseling, then gained clinical licensure as an LCMHC. He uses a client-centered stance and draws from several therapy approaches. He mixes techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness with narrative and motivational interviewing tools.
In sessions he tends to be practical and straightforward. Conversations identify concrete patterns, test new ways of responding, and set small goals to try at home. For anger and relationship concerns he helps people notice triggers, shift unhelpful thoughts, and practice different communication choices.
He accepts clients who prefer English and is open to working with international clients. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. Prospective clients begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and adapting to what each person brings. Online sessions can still center on the individual's priorities and pace, with the therapist following the client's lead and clarifying what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In remote sessions CBT can be used to spot patterns, practice new responses between meetings, and review short exercises or worksheets together. Mindfulness Therapy trains attention to the present moment and to physical and emotional signals. Practiced online, mindfulness can help with stress, anger, and anxiety by building short daily habits and simple breathing or grounding exercises. Choosing the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with each client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and adjust over time based on what helps in practice. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so people can use a break between responsibilities. These practical benefits often help therapy feel more doable alongside everyday life.Areas of focus
