BJ Portrait of Brandon Johnson

Brandon Johnson, LMFT

Therapist for relationship and trauma work

About Brandon

Brandon Johnson is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who works with people facing relationship and life stress. He practices from Texas and brings eight years of clinical experience to sessions.

Background and approach

Brandon aims to create a calm, direct space where clients can talk about what matters most to them. He focuses on relationship dynamics, attachment concerns, and the effects of trauma and loss.

In sessions he helps people sort through grief, anxiety, depression, and questions about intimacy and sexuality. He also supports those dealing with parenting strain, career stress, compassion fatigue, and major life changes.

Brandon uses practical approaches that help clients notice patterns and try new ways of relating. He draws on therapies that address unhelpful thoughts, strengthen bonds with others, and process traumatic memories when needed.

Work in sessions often includes clear goals, skills practice, and talking through difficult memories or moments. People seeking help with infidelity, divorce and separation, or non-monogamous relationship challenges will find that he addresses those topics directly.

He also has focused experience with veteran and armed forces issues and post-traumatic stress. Sessions are adapted to the person’s pace and priorities.

Sessions are offered in English and delivered online in a range of formats. Brandon describes his style as affirming and collaborative, aiming to help people build more satisfying relationships and greater self-acceptance over time.

Therapeutic approaches that guide online work

Many clients benefit from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match personal values. ACT helps with anxiety, depression, and navigating life changes by building flexible skills rather than trying to eliminate difficult thoughts.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current bonds. This approach helps people understand why they react a certain way in close relationships and then practice new, more supported ways of relating.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is used when traumatic memories are keeping someone stuck. EMDR supports processing those memories so they feel less overwhelming and reduce their hold on daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Brandon will discuss options and tailor a plan based on the client's needs, goals, and preferences. The therapist and client decide together which methods to try and adjust them as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. Video lets you use visual cues and practice relationship skills, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be a good fit for quick check-ins, and messaging or live chat can support ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and maintain continuity over time.
