Chris Johns, LPC — Therapist in Alabama

Hi there, I'm Chris!

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor with over 30 years of experience helping individuals heal, grow, and thrive. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, and life transitions, offering a supportive and down-to-earth space to explore your story and take control of your journey.

My focus

I work with individuals, couples, and families navigating trauma, anxiety, relationship stress, and major life transitions. I specialize in helping men who struggle with vulnerability, emotional expression, or balancing professional and personal roles. I also support clients facing challenges related to cultural identity, intergenerational trauma.

My approach

My approach to therapy is client-centered, trauma-informed, and grounded in over 30 years of clinical experience. I believe that healing begins in a space where you feel genuinely seen, heard, and respected. I provide that space by offering a non-judgmental, supportive environment where clients can safely explore their experiences.

My communication style

My communication style is warm, direct, and collaborative. I meet clients with empathy, respect, and a genuine desire to understand their unique experiences. Whether you’re navigating trauma, relationship stress, or professional burnout, I create a space where you can feel safe, challenged, and supported.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey began as a volunteer with a counseling agency, supporting emotionally abused foster children and their families. That early experience opened my eyes to how deeply trauma can shape a person—and how meaningful a safe, supportive connection can be. I knew then that I wanted to be a steady, healing presence for others.

My goals for you

I use evidence-based practices like CBT, trauma-informed therapy, and solution-focused strategies to support your progress. With couples, I focus on rebuilding trust, improving emotional connection, and resolving conflict. For court-referred clients, I provide structured, goal-oriented sessions that meet legal or behavioral requirements.

Our first session

Your first session with me is all about building comfort, clarity, and connection. We'll take time to get to know each other, discuss what led you to therapy, and explore what you hope to gain from our work together. I’ll ask questions about your history, current challenges, and goals—not to overwhelm you, but to better understand you.
