She is simply fabulous. She has patiently worked with me through some heavy business. She does not placate amd can talk tough to me if I need it, but she knows when I need it. If that is your jam, then she is the best!

More about Johanna
- 4 years' experience
- Female
- LMFT
I'm Johanna Anderson, a dedicated and licensed therapist based in Georgia. My academic journey in the field of mental health began with a Bachelor's degree in Human Development and Family Studies from UNC-Greensboro in 2016, followed by a Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Lee University in 2019.
With approximately five years of experience in therapy, my professional path has been enriched by opportunities to serve diverse groups. My tenure at a community clinic and a college counseling center allowed me to support a wide range of clients, including young children, teens, parents, families, couples, and individuals. I've assisted clients in navigating a variety of challenges, such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, family and relational conflicts, attachment issues, trauma, and grief.
Understanding the daunting nature of seeking therapy, whether it's your first or fiftieth time, I am committed to demystifying the process and championing the courage it takes to embrace change. My approach is centered on empathy and collaboration, ensuring that you feel empowered and in control throughout your therapeutic journey.
I believe in the importance of building a balanced therapeutic relationship, where you can share openly in a space that respects boundaries and focuses on your goals. I view each client as the expert of their own story, possessing unique strengths that are key to overcoming challenges. Together, we can navigate the path towards peace and healing, reaffirming that you are capable of facing and overcoming the obstacles in your life.
Remember, YOU CAN DO HARD THINGS!

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.

Johanna is great!
Jo Hannna Anderson is an expert counselor, and I would recommend her highly!
I recently had the pleasure of working with Johanna. She has helped me tackle some major life changes while also managing my ADHD. From the first session, it was clear that she was deeply knowledgeable about both issues, and she helped me develop strategies for dealing with both in a holistic way. One of the things I appreciate most about working with her is her ability to really listen and understand what I am going through. She is always patient, kind, and non-judgmental, and she has helped me feel comfortable opening up about my struggles. I highly recommend her to anyone who is dealing with big life changes or managing ADHD – she truly is an expert in both areas and a fantastic therapist all around.
Johanna is very easy to listen to. She is patient and really pays attention to what you are saying and she is able to give sound advice on what you are feeling. It is helpful to have someone that understands you and can help you with your thoughts!
Wonderful experience talking with Johanna for several sessions! She is someone that listens and gives practical help to her clients. I know she is a great benefit to those who have her as a counselor / therapist.
I appreciate my sessions with her ! She makes me feel comfortable talking about my everyday struggles!
I'm thankful for her. she's a great listener and she helps me see things I didn't see before. she also helps me learn new tools for dealing with things.
Johanna is an awesome therapist!
