More about me

Licensing: LCSW Years in Practice: 32 State: Nevada

Hello, my name is Willie Johnson, MSW, LCSW- Thank You for considering my services...

I am a licensed clinical social worker in Las Vegas, NV, with over 30 years of experience working with individuals, couples, families, groups who are dealing with anger, trauma, attachment issues, depression, anxiety, panic attacks and other mood disorders. It’s extremely important for patients to realize and distinguish the difference between their original true personality and their bodies, feelings, thoughts, and emotions. In other words, YOU ARE NOT YOUR BODY, YOU ARE NOT YOUR FEELINGS, YOU ARE NOT YOUR EMOTIONS! You are not what you feel nor think. True, you do have feelings, thoughts and emotions, but you are not them.

Within this therapeutic relationship, you will learn, recognize, and identify the secondary emotions and personalities that’s trying to manipulate, control and change your character and personality. You will also learn how to release yourself from the pain and guilt of harm done to you or the harm you have done to others or even to yourself. Our goals in therapy is not just to cope or manage these emotional concerns, but to completely get rid of and totally destroy them out of your life. Through self-reflection, therapy will help develop your capacity to be more self-aware, recognize and challenge negative thoughts and build towards a more safe and healthy life functioning.

I believe that prioritizing your mental health is an investment in self; it is an active step towards your healing journey.

"Four Stages To Your Emotional Health & Healing"

1. Love Everybody,

2. Forgive Everybody,

3. Respect Everybody &

4. Be Kind To Everybody -- Starting With Yourself.

I look forward to working with you.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

The man is an amazing bastion of positivity, motivation and clarity. He is big on clarity and gives you tools to fight off all the negativity and all the challenges of daily life.

Willie is a good therapist and a positive influence in many aspects.

The therapist chosen for me is a blessing I didn't know I needed. I appreciate having him to talk to and for the check ins between sessions just to see how I am, they always come at a time I'm feeling down or just needed that extra boost of confidence.

I found Willie to be very helpful in all areas of my life.

He is a great therapist! Great advice !

When I signed up for help, I was very guarded and felt like it would be difficult to open up to a stranger. Immediately, Willie was welcoming and made this entire experience very worthwhile. I feel like I can express my concerns, am heard and receive timely input from him. I am very grateful for his time and expertise

It took three attempts to connect with a therapist that worked for me and I'm glad I stuck with it. Willie helps me be the me I want to be. Love everyone. Forgive everyone.

Willie is the best therapist I have ever met with! He listens, gives great advice and helps me understand my thoughts and feelings from a different perspective that supports the growth of my mental health. Thank you Willie! I am thankful and appreciate you very much!
