Miya Johnson is a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate (LPC-A) who provides warm, culturally responsive therapy to children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. She is passionate about creating a safe and supportive space where clients can explore life challenges, strengthen relationships, and reconnect with their sense of strength and purpose.

​

Miya specializes in working with young adults, couples, and families navigating relationship concerns, family conflict, co-parenting challenges, anxiety, depression, life transitions, self-esteem concerns, stress management, grief and loss, and communication difficulties. She also supports clients in addressing men’s and women’s issues, personal growth and development, and improving overall emotional well-being.

​

Her clinical foundation is rooted in Family Systems Therapy, and she integrates evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy. In her work with couples, she draws from Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Gottman-informed techniques. When working with children, she incorporates play-based interventions to support emotional expression and development in an age-appropriate way.

​

Miya is committed to multicultural humility and believes that each client’s culture, identity, and lived experience should be honored and integrated into the therapeutic process. She views therapy as a collaborative journey grounded in authenticity, compassion, and empowerment.

Originally from Charlotte, North Carolina, Miya now resides in Houston, Texas. She earned her Master of Education in Counseling and Development from Lamar University and holds additional degrees in Applied Science and the Arts. She is currently under the supervision of Cynthia R. Carter, M.S., LPC-S, LMFT-S, and plans to pursue a doctorate in the counseling field.
