About Jarod
Jarod Johnson is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on somatic-informed work alongside talk therapy. He helps people manage anxiety, depression, addiction, and other strong emotions. His style aims to reduce overwhelm and build steady coping skills for daily life.
Jarod draws on several practical approaches to tailor sessions to each person. He uses Client-Centered methods to make space for the client's voice and priorities. He blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotional regulation.
Background and approach
Sessions often include attention to how stress shows up in the body. That somatic awareness can make feelings easier to notice and work with. He also uses attachment-focused ideas to help people understand relationship patterns and safety in connection.
Clients bring a wide range of concerns, from trauma and grief to eating and sleep struggles. Jarod also supports those facing life changes, career pressure, and identity questions. He pays attention to overlapping issues like co-morbidity, codependency, and family of origin patterns.
Practicing in Texas, Jarod holds the LPC credential and has six years of experience. He works with adults who want clearer thinking, steadier emotion, and more satisfying relationships. Conversations are straightforward, paced to the client, and focused on practical next steps.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Many of his key methods adapt well to remote sessions. Somatic work means paying attention to body signals during conversation, noticing tension, breath, and movement, and using that information to guide grounding or regulation exercises. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at relationship patterns and helps people understand how past connections shape present reactions, which can be discussed and practiced in online sessions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's experience and priorities, so the therapist follows the client’s lead and reflects what matters most.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. They may try a mix of methods and adjust as progress is made, keeping the client involved in each decision.
Online formats offer flexibility in how people connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be simpler when screens are difficult, and live chat or text-based messaging supports brief check-ins or ongoing reflections between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy routines and different life situations.
