About Johnnie
Johnnie Gordon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia with four years of clinical experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, depression, trauma and abuse, and struggles with addiction and grief. He also supports clients dealing with parenting strain, career questions, body image, and feelings of isolation.
Johnnie draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-informed approaches. Sessions focus on naming and tracking emotions, noticing interaction patterns, and building clearer communication. He uses practical tools from cognitive behavioral work and mindfulness to help people manage symptoms and respond differently to old habits.
He describes his work as respectful and culturally aware, and aims to listen carefully before suggesting steps forward. Conversations tend to be straightforward and goal-oriented, with attention to how emotions shape behavior and relationships. He also brings ideas from his PhD work in psychology into clinical thinking and case formulation.
Johnnie helps people develop coping skills for mood difficulties, compassion fatigue, and life changes. He can address attachment and abandonment concerns, control and impulsivity problems, and struggles with guilt or forgiveness. He also supports exploration of life purpose and self-love.
Sessions are conducted in English, and he accepts international clients. Cost varies by location and uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How his approaches translate to online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on identifying and working with core emotions and the interaction patterns they create. Online sessions using EFT tend to look at how feelings get named, how partners or individuals respond, and steps to change those repeating cycles.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then act toward chosen values. ACT exercises online can include mindfulness practices and value-driven behavioral steps that fit into daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to decide whether EFT, ACT, attachment-based ideas, or CBT techniques best match the client's goals and preferences. That choice can shift as therapy progresses, and he uses research-informed thinking to guide adjustments.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, shorten check-ins when needed, and offer alternatives for people who prefer not to travel. Licensed professionals use these approaches to help people practice skills between sessions and integrate change into everyday routines.
