01About Taij
Taij Johnson is a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor who brings seven years of experience to his work. He focuses on meeting people where they are and helping them move toward clearer goals and steadier days. Taij speaks plainly and keeps sessions practical so parents and busy adults can follow along.
He began in hands-on support roles, working in group homes and assisted living and later in schools doing high-risk intervention.
Background and approach
Those early jobs shaped how he responds to crisis and stress now. He then worked as a Protective Services social worker before completing a master of arts in counseling and obtaining licensure as an LCMHC and an LPC. Taij uses a client-centered way of working that centers the person’s values and choices.
He also draws on cognitive behavioral methods to shift unhelpful thinking and on mindfulness to build calm and focus. Motivational interviewing and narrative approaches are part of his toolbox when people want to change habits or reframe life stories.
He helps with a wide range of concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting stress, eating and sleeping problems, and attention-deficit concerns. Additional focuses include caregiving stress, chronic illness, body image, and blended family issues. Sessions are offered in English and Taij works with people in North Carolina and internationally.
He aims to create clear next steps each week so progress is steady and understandable. If someone wants practical conversations and tools, he centers collaboration and small, manageable goals.

Approach, Online Tools, and How They Help
Taij commonly uses client-centered work to follow each person’s priorities. This approach means the therapist listens carefully, reflects what matters most to the person, and helps set goals that fit the client’s life. It is useful for people who want their values and choices to guide therapy.He also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT often helps with anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and managing mood swings by teaching concrete skills and small experiments.
Finding the right approach is part of the beginning work. Taij will collaborate with clients to decide which methods to try based on their needs, goals, and preferences. That process can include trying a few techniques and adjusting what doesn’t fit.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video is good for seeing nonverbal cues and doing longer sessions, phone can work when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text are helpful for quick check-ins or when writing feels easier. These options let people fit sessions around work, caregiving, or travel while keeping regular contact with a licensed professional.
