about our therapists

My clients are adult individuals struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem, and chronic stress. They often seek therapy because they feel trapped by high standards and perfectionism, and long to live with more freedom and joy. They berate themselves for not being good enough and find it difficult to connect vulnerably with others. Through therapy, my clients learn to understand and accept their feelings, prioritize self-care without guilt, and heal old wounds. They become free to be their authentic selves and live a life aligned with their values.

I utilize a person-centered approach to meet my clients with warmth and compassion, while incorporating DBT, EMDR, and IFS therapy techniques. I am available for in-person sessions on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and virtual sessions on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 9 AM to 5 PM. For information about insurance and fees, please visit my website saraahmedcounseling.com or contact me at sara@saraahmedcounseling.com.

I provide counseling and coaching to female teens and adults living with depression, anxiety, adjustment disorder, relationship problems, self-esteem issues, major life transitions and maladaptive coping.

My philosophy is that mental health and physical health are irrevocably connected—poor mental health can lead to poor physical health and harmful behaviors. Depression has been linked to many chronic illnesses. I take a holistic approach to therapy and discuss physical health/fitness and nutrition; emotional resilience; positive social connections; intellectual stimulation and spiritual fulfilment.

It’s hard to live life to the fullest sometimes when we get stuck in our thinking, feel overwhelmed and become our own worst enemy. I strive to make sure my clients have the information and tools they need to improve their quality of life by employing a variety of interventions and techniques—and sometimes even humor!

I am a Certified Mental Health Integrative Medicine Provider. I also employ hypnotherapy where appropriate. I am ready to get started when you are.

My clients are couples.   

Are you and your partner feeling stuck in a rut? Do you wish you could communicate better, trust more, and reconnect with each other? Do you want to reignite the spark that brought you together in the first place?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you might benefit from relationship counseling with me. I am Rhonda Johnson, a licensed clinical social worker with over 20 years of experience in helping couples of all ages, orientations, and genders overcome their challenges and achieve their goals.

I specialize in working with couples who are dealing with issues such as:

• Trust and intimacy
• Communication and conflict resolution
• Affair recovery and relationship repair
• Lack of passion and sexual satisfaction
• Life transitions and stressors

I use evidence-based approaches such as Emotionally Focused Therapy, Gottman Method, and Imago Relationship Therapy to help you and your partner understand each other better, heal from past hurts, and create a stronger bond.

I do not bill insurance for relationship counseling, but I offer affordable packages that reduce the cost of therapy. You can choose from different options depending on your needs and preferences.

Growing up can be challenging, and stress often leads to uncomfortable symptoms that disrupt our lives at school, home, and work.

I specialize in working with children, adolescent males, and young men, along with their families, who experience anxiety, social phobias, or OCD, including those on the autism spectrum.

I use Cognitive Behavior Therapy as my foundation to reduce symptoms and help with the development of coping skills and strategies.

My goal is to empower both the client and their family by building a relationship based on trust, acceptance, and unconditional positive regard.

I take a holistic therapeutic approach to help clients discover their true values and inner strength, bringing balance to their lives.

I am committed to creating a safe environment that fosters growth and self-discovery.

I am currently accepting new clients. For more information or to make an appointment, contact me at Harrison@CRCMurfreesboro.com or call 615-848-0065.
