About Tiniece

Tiniece Johnson is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) practicing in Michigan. She brings 12 years of clinical experience and focuses on helping people navigate trauma, grief, parenting stress, anxiety, mood concerns, and relationship challenges. Her approach is direct and calm, aimed at making the first steps feel manageable for someone who is worried or unsure.

She creates a space where people can speak honestly about painful memories and strong emotions.

Background and approach

Sessions are nonjudgmental and focused on what matters most to the client. Tiniece uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at how feelings shape reactions in relationships and in personal life. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify their values and take small, meaningful actions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used when thoughts and behaviors get stuck in unhelpful patterns. Client-Centered Therapy guides the pace so the client leads the work. Tiniece works with a wide range of concerns including addictions, sleep and eating problems, anger, self-esteem, career stress, bipolar disorder, depression, ADHD, and coping with life changes.

She has additional experience with adoption and foster care, first responder challenges, multicultural issues, and end-of-life concerns. This range allows her to tailor sessions to the person in front of her. Sessions are offered in English and delivered through video, phone, live chat, and text messaging.

She understands taking the first step is hard and aims to make scheduling and the early sessions straightforward and respectful.

How emotion-focused and action-oriented methods work online

Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people understand how emotions drive patterns in relationships and personal reactions. In practice this can mean tracking moments of connection or disconnection and learning ways to respond differently when strong feelings arise.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, encourages clients to clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values even when emotions or worry are present. It is often useful for anxiety, stress, and life changes because it pairs values with practical actions.

Finding the best approach is a team effort. The therapist will work with the client to choose or blend methods based on goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful in early sessions. That collaborative process makes it easier to adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, and text messaging to fit different needs. Video calls allow for face-to-face interaction and richer nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging offer brief check-ins, easier scheduling, and a way to keep momentum between longer sessions.
