My St. Paul-Minneapolis Therapy Clients 

In-Person Therapy for Adults in White Bear Lake & Online for all of Minnesota

Thank you for your interest in therapy at Tarriance in St. Paul-Minneapolis. I’m Kathy Johnson, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, offering in-person therapy sessions for adults at my White Bear Lake counseling office. I also provide some online therapy sessions for clients throughout the state of Minnesota, and I can utilize online platforms to deliver cross-culture consulting services for individuals living internationally. My therapy practice is a welcoming, inclusive, judgement-free place where all people are welcome. I am trained in numerous therapy approaches that allow me to offer effective counseling support for people who are healing from trauma, navigating a difficult transition or time of turmoil, and those who are trying to develop and sustain the necessary skills to live a connected and purposeful life. On this page, you can learn more about some of the clients I have unique skills and experience to work with. If you want to determine whether or not I’m a good fit to work with you, please get in touch to schedule a phone consultation. 

Individual Therapy for Adults ages 18-90

I offer counseling for individuals who are struggling with issues like anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, spirituality, relationship issues, and stress. While I have some other specialty niches listed below, Individual Counseling for people outside of my specialty groups make up the bulk of my practice. Though I don’t offer relational couples therapy, I can offer individual therapy through a relational lens to help individuals who are struggling within their relationships. When appropriate, I may also encourage my clients to include a spouse, partner, child, or other loved one in a therapy session or over the course of a few visits.

 

Missionary Care

Serving as a missionary can be an amazing adventure that offers great joy and satisfaction, but it can also be challenging and stressful. Therapy can be an essential resource for missionaries whether you’re preparing for a mission and want to make sure you’re developing appropriate expectations, living internationally as a missionary, or you’re having a hard time reacclimating after coming home from missions. I’ve worked with missionaries before, during, and after seasons of living overseas or involvement in short term mission trips to help them increase resilience and develop strategies to manage the difficult aspects of mission work. In addition to work with individual missionaries, I have also worked with numerous mission organizations to provide pre-field mission assessments and other support services, including cross-cultural consulting for missionaries living internationally.

 

Christian Ministry Leaders 

While serving your community as a minister is an extremely rewarding and fulfilling career path, it is not without its difficulties and dilemmas. Having Served in professional ministry alongside my husband, I am very knowledgeable about the many life challenges that come along with the ministry life. My therapy work with Christian ministry leaders comes from a place of deep understanding and shared experience. You can feel comfortable speaking openly with me about the triumphs and struggles of life in ministry, and know that you are in a safe and non-judgmental environment.
