Kianni Johnson, LMHC

Kianni Johnson is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in New York with six years of clinical experience helping people navigate complex emotional concerns. She holds diagnostic privilege certification in New York, a credential that authorizes clinical assessment and diagnosis, and has additional training as a Certified Anger Management Specialist and a Registered Behavior Technician, reflecting focused skill in anger work and behavioral interventions. Kianni applies this background to support individuals dealing with anxiety, depression, mood disorders, anger, and relationship difficulties, paying close attention to the recurring patterns that shape emotions and behavior.

She is committed to empowering diverse clients and honoring intersectional identities, understanding that culture, background, and lived experience influence how people move through the world. Kianni creates a therapeutic space where those layers are welcomed and explored with respect and curiosity. Her work attends to attachment issues, communication challenges, codependency, control concerns, and the broad emotional impacts of family dynamics and trauma.

Kianni's therapeutic philosophy emphasizes sustainability over quick fixes. Rather than promising a cure, she focuses on equipping clients with practical tools to manage stress, build resilience, and foster meaningful, lasting change. Her approach blends evidence-based techniques with attunement to each person's goals and values.
