Brief Bio:

Dr. Johnson is an Associate Professor in the Clinical Mental Health Counseling program at the University of Oklahoma. His scholarly interests include spirituality, justice, group psychotherapy, and existential/transpersonal psychology. He teaches on psychology, psychotherapy, and justice/advocacy. As a Clinical Assistant Professor of Psychiatry, he supervises OU College of Medicine psychiatry residents.

Psychotherapy and Consulting Practice

Dr. Johnson is a licensed psychologist who provides culturally-informed psychotherapy for mental health, psychospiritual growth, relationship issues, grief/loss, trauma/PTSD, depression/anxiety, existential/spiritual issues, and sexual orientation/gender identity issues. His integrative, culturally aware therapeutic approach includes Existential, Jungian, Psychodynamic, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Gottman couples therapy, Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), somatic therapies, and cultural-relational therapy. He received certification in ketamine and psychedelic-assisted therapies.

Essentially, his approach to psychotherapy/coaching is about “soul-care” rather than “fixing” people, nurturing inner resources, and promoting self-discovery. It is about connecting people with their core values and meaning in their lives, and not “curing” them. Healing and growth occur most effectively when considering the whole person in context (including trauma, life experiences, spiritual experiences, culture, etc.). His approach is relational. He facilitates creative problem-solving and growth through imaginatively exploring peoples' concerns more deeply via a supportive, trusting, and collaborative relationship. Through this process, people often discover deeper underlying patterns, themes, strengths, growth edges, and ideas that increase their psychological flexibility, self-understanding, and awareness; thus, leading to expanded meaning, aliveness, choice, and engagement with their lives and community. 


Involvements & Interests in Psychoanalysis & Psychodynamic Therapies:

I have graduate and postgraduate training in Modern Analytic, psychodynamic, and existential-analytic therapies including Jung, Kohut, Lacan, Ormont, Rollo May, Binswanger, Jaspers, etc.
