In a world that inundates us with all things negative it’s hard to weed through all of the noise. You need a safe place to do just that. I’m here to give you that safe place. I just want you to win!
I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 16 years of experience working with individuals to help them maintain their mental and physical health and well-being in the least restrictive environment.
My preferred therapeutic methods are solution focused, client-centered, motivational interviewing and cognitive behavioral therapy.
Mindset is everything. It is important to know that thoughts become things. In other words, your thoughts and feelings can produce actions that are causing you not to function in your daily life in a way that would allow you to be productive.
We will work together to help you recognize your current way of thinking and behavior and equip you with tools that can change your harmful thoughts into helpful thoughts that will produce positive action.
We will work together to help you create goals with plans that you will be excited to execute because they will lead you to the life you truly want to live.
I look forward to helping you become the best you, you can be.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Aesha is the only therapist that I have stuck with out of the many therapist that I have tried. She has been able to get me to let my guard down and really open up. I feel that she really listens to my concerns and provides me with a game plan to be able to tackle my goals. She helps me with my mindset most of all to help me to view things differently than what I am doing.
Aesha has been a great therapist for me and has helped me to both find solutions and strategies for how to handle my stress and problems. She has also helped me to find several causes of why I tend to stress and ways to avoid or correct them.
Excellent
I appreciate Aesha checking on me when we have not had a session in a while. The provided tools have helped.
she is great and very attentive
I enjoy my sessions
Aesha is a phenomenal therapist. She has helped me tremendously in the past month since I started my sessions. She has helped me with self esteem, anxiety and walked me through processing my feelings during the aftermath of a breakup from a toxic relationship. She listens and helps me think deeply about my thoughts and feelings in a way that helps me improve my outlook. She is an awesome therapist!
She’s awesome!
Always feel better after we talk
She has been patient and helpful in teaching me how to navigate some of the anxiety/depression I’ve been feeling lately. It’s still early on, but she’s done a great job making me feel like it’s manageable.
Aesha Johnson is a consumate professional. She is very patient and understanding. She doesn't interject with her opinions unless I ask her for them and instead hears me out on what I have to say. She also asks the right questions, which cause me to think deeper about the issues that are troubling me. She doesn't rush to conclusions and instead structures her assessment of my mental health on questionnaires and activities geared towards finding the root causes of my anxiety and depression. I look forward to continuing my journey with her
Aesha is understanding, knowledgeable, and caring. I am constantly impressed by how she finds new ways to engage with and help the problems in my life.
