About Myself
Hello! I’m Karie Johnston, a licensed therapist committed to helping people heal from the inside out. My approach is integrative and client-centered, focusing on supporting the whole person — mind, body, and spirit.
Some of the modalities I use include, but not limited to, ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy), CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), ACT (Acceptance & Commitment Therapy), and Solution-Focused Therapy.
My passion for this work is deeply personal. I’ve faced my own struggles and challenges, and I know firsthand how life-changing therapy can be. It helped me break free from patterns that held me back and reconnect with my true self. That journey inspired me to help others do the same.
I’m here to walk alongside you with compassion, honesty, and hope—every step of the way.
Whether you’re seeking healing, clarity, or personal growth, I believe change is possible.
Together, we’ll create a space where you can feel safe, seen, and empowered to become your best self.
What is A.R.T.
Accelerated Resolution Therapy
Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) is a unique approach to psychotherapy. Although it uses bilateral eye movement like EMDR, ART is unique because the ART Therapist guides the client to replace the negative images in the mind that cause the symptoms of Post-Traumatic Stress with positive images of the client’s choosing. And this is done quickly, most often within one session! Once the negative images have been replaced by positive ones, the triggers will be gone. Nightmares and repeated intrusive thoughts will stop.
Some of the growing body of research that shows ART can do this may be found by clicking the following link: https://acceleratedresolutiontherapy.com/evidence-based/ ART is recognized as evidenced-based by the Society of Clinical Psychology, Div. 12 of the American Psychological Association (APA).
