About Chandra
Chandra Johnson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Texas. She offers a straightforward, practical approach for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, grief, mood changes, or parenting challenges. Chandra focuses on clear steps and tools so clients can try things between sessions and notice small changes.
She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and mindfulness practices to help people manage strong emotions and improve day-to-day functioning.
Background and approach
Sessions often include skill practice, emotion regulation strategies, and goal-focused conversations. The work is collaborative - Chandra helps set priorities and adjusts the plan as needs shift. Chandra has eight years of clinical experience as an LCSW in Texas and more than a decade of professional experience overall.
That background includes supporting people through trauma, relationship difficulties, depression, anxiety, and compassion fatigue. She brings practical ideas that relate to everyday life at home and work. Parents who feel stuck, exhausted, or unsure about next steps often find the focus helpful.
Chandra helps people talk through parenting stress, communication problems, and the emotional impact of life changes. She also supports people working on self-esteem, intimacy concerns, and career transitions. Her style is direct and encouraging.
Sessions balance problem-solving with noticing strengths. Chandra invites people to try small experiments and to reflect on what helps between meetings.

How specific therapies translate to online sessions
Chandra commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in online work. CBT focuses on spotting thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and trying small experiments to change them, which works well in video or chat formats where homework and tracking can be discussed. DBT emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills that can be taught, practiced, and coached during sessions for people facing intense emotions.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will help identify goals and try strategies that fit a person's needs and preferences, adjusting methods as progress is made. Clients and therapist decide together which skills to emphasize and how sessions should proceed.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth or camera use is a concern. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to check in between appointments, fit brief coaching into a busy day, and keep a written record of skills and reminders. These options help people balance therapy with parenting and everyday responsibilities.
