About Johne
Johne Mitchell is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 11 years of clinical experience. She trained in clinical mental health counseling and has spent over a decade helping people handle stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, and parenting challenges. Her work centers on listening, practical problem solving, and clear steps clients can try between sessions.
Mitchell favors straightforward approaches that make sense day to day. She uses cognitive behavioral tools to spot and change unhelpful thinking.
Background and approach
She pairs that with client-centered listening to tune into what matters most to each person. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas and mindfulness practices also appear in her work to help people tolerate hard feelings while taking steps toward their values. Her background includes community work, crisis and trauma-centered roles, and supporting people with substance use and severe mental health concerns.
That experience informs how she structures sessions and safety planning when needed. She often helps people break problems into smaller, more manageable tasks and set realistic goals. In sessions she focuses on clear communication and practical strategies.
Parents and caregivers who mention parenting stress, behavior struggles, or relationship strain often come away with concrete tools to try at home. Sessions aim to be a calm place to sort priorities and practice new ways of responding. Overall Mitchell combines practical skills training with steady, empathetic listening.
She helps people who feel stuck build small, doable steps toward calmer days and better functioning.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It encourages choosing actions aligned with personal values so life can feel more meaningful even during hardship. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. It can help with anxiety, panic, mood changes, and everyday stress.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. You can try techniques in a few sessions, talk about what helps, and adjust the plan together as needs shift.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video calls are useful for longer, interactive work and visual connection. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier during busy days. Live chat and text are helpful for quick check-ins, brief skill practice, and flexible scheduling. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around childcare, work, and daily life.
