"I want to hear your story”
~Sessions Psychotherapy
You are functioning well. That’s what you do, hold everything together for everyone. But maybe having one little space solely focused on you and your well-being would be a relief. You deserve a little bit of time to slow down and take care of yourself. A little bit of space to just breathe.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker located in East Tennessee and licensed in Tennessee and Minnesota. I support adult men and women who are high performers, overthinkers, perfectionists, and people-pleasers struggling to balance career, home life, and personal fulfillment.
The modalities I work in are traditional talk therapy and EMDR.
My specialty is to help reduce or resolve anxiety, decrease the daily impact of past trauma, improve how you show up in relationships (including in your relationship with yourself), and cope with planned or unplanned life transitions.

Sessions are conducted via Telehealth only at this time.

why therapy?
Therapy is an excellent place to check in with yourself and take a look at how you’re really feeling. My therapy space is tailored to you, exactly where you are right now. There is no judgment, no social pressure, and I will never dismiss your values or life experiences. You are welcome to bring your faith, core beliefs, strengths, mistakes, regrets, and heartaches to our therapy space.
If you are located in Minnesota or Tennessee and ready to heal, I’m ready to help you get started with traditional talk therapy and/or EMDR.
about me
My name is Sheri Johnson. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Tennessee (TN license #9848), and a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Minnesota (MN license #25707).
I earned an undergraduate degree in Social Work at the University of Wisconsin-Superior in 1990, and worked as a mental health technician on a locked inpatient psychiatric unit for over a decade, caring for people during acute mental health crisis. I loved that work, but I wanted to learn more about helping people heal once a crisis is over.
I earned a Master of Social Work degree at the College of St. Scholastica in Duluth, MN in 2016, at the age of 44.
My favorite part of therapy work is witnessing the transformation people experience when we can untangle and set aside the core negative beliefs that have been making life heavier than is has to be.
During my off hours I’m helping my husband remodel our house, snuggling with our dogs (min pin and rottweiler), begging the cat (gray fluff) to pay attention to me, and watching song birds, hummingbirds, and crows from my porch.
