Hello, I am Dr. Lisa Parks Johnson. I am a Licensed Certified Professional Counselor (LCPC) and a Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CADC) in the state of Illinois. I hold a doctorate degree in Clinical Psychology. I have over 20 years of experience as a psychotherapist. My experience includes working with individuals, families, and couples with presenting issues ranging from substance abuse, domestic violence, grief and loss, women issues, parenting, trauma, anxiety, depression, and anger. I use a holistic approach that is strength-based and specific to the needs of the individual. I am an avid believer that the road to recovery begins with developing a healthy therapeutic alliance and providing supportive therapy to alleviate symptoms, improve self-esteem, manage impulses, regulate negative thinking, and reinforce the individual’s ability to cope with life stressors and challenges.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
