Johne Mitchell , LPC

Johne Mitchell is a Licensed Professional Counselor who brings a compassionate, solution-focused approach to helping people navigate life’s challenges. She earned a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Alabama State University in 2011, and draws on experience working with families, community programs, crisis and trauma interventions, substance use treatment, and severe mental health concerns. Her work centers on creating a safe space where individuals can be heard and begin to untangle complicated feelings when family or friends are not available to help.

Mitchell commonly uses solution-focused strategies, cognitive behavioral techniques, motivational interviewing, and person-centered methods to help clients identify root causes of presenting problems and explore practical ways to shift dynamics or thought patterns. She emphasizes collaborative dialogue, listening first, and helping clients develop clearer, more manageable paths forward. The goal is to support people in making life fuller, more manageable, and more peaceful by focusing on realistic steps and meaningful change.

As a licensed practitioner, Mitchell combines clinical training with a calm, attentive presence to guide individuals and families through stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship and family issues, trauma, grief, and other concerns. Her practice aims to meet people where they are and support them in building skills for longer-term well-being.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Care

Johne Mitchell incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT - which helps clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical skills to manage symptoms like anxiety, depression, and impulsive behaviors. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy - ACT - is used to help people clarify personal values and learn to live with uncomfortable thoughts or feelings while pursuing meaningful action. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a nonjudgmental, empathetic therapeutic relationship that supports self-exploration and emotional growth, often helpful for relationship concerns, self-esteem, and life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Mitchell works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they assess what feels most useful and adapt strategies over time to support progress.

Online therapy offers flexibility by allowing sessions through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit care into busy schedules and reach licensed professionals from different locations. These options can help clients maintain continuity of care, try different communication styles, and access support when in-person visits are not possible.
