Services Offered

Mental Health Counseling

ALL SESSIONS ARE OFFERED THROUGH SECURE VIDEO APPOINTMENTS AND ARE OPEN TO THOSE RESIDING IN WASHINGTON AND TEXAS.


I provide counseling addressing the most urgent mental health conditions affecting our first responder and military communities, including, but not limited to: 

  • Critical Incident Trauma
  • Post-Traumatic Stress (PTSD/PTSI)
  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Suicide Prevention
  • Burnout/Workplace Stress
  • Work/Life Balance
  • Substance Use (Please note that although I have extensive experience in this area, Bravura Counseling is not a substance abuse treatment center, and I will work with you in this area only if outpatient treatment is deemed an appropriate level of care.)


I use evidence-based practices (EBPs) backed by science. The counseling models that I use are gold-standard treatments, meaning they have been proven effective in both short- and long-term research studies. Few counseling models have been tested and proven effective to this standard. Since each person is unique, we will work together to determine what works best for you, tailoring counseling to meet your goals.

 
Despite common misconceptions, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder/Injury (PTSD/PTSI) is treatable: you are not doomed to suffer forever. I am proud to have trained with some of the nation's leading experts on trauma, and the treatment strategies I use to treat PTS are:

  • Prolonged Exposure (PE)
  • Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT)
  • Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT)


PE and CPT are gold standard treatments backed by extensive research. Both models have been adopted by the Veteran's Administration. Treatment typically takes months, not years, with results that hold up over time.


Other models I use in my practice are:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia
  • Exposure and Response Prevention
  • Stress Inoculation Training
  • The Unified Protocol 


I am also certified in Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) and trained in Psychological First Aid.

Training

We provide custom training to agencies, colleges and universities, and individual mental health professionals.  Our training focuses on mental wellness and resilience for first responders, treating PTSD/I, working with sexual assault survivors, and workplace trauma. 

Consulting

Now more than ever, agencies need to invest in retaining their officers, which includes prioritizing mental wellness. Mental wellness directly translates to officer and community safety. We partner with agencies to review and implement effective, research-backed protocols, partner with peer support, and to provide custom mental wellness packages. We also offer CISM support for agencies with or without existing CISM protocols.

Clinical Supervision

Johanna offers clinical supervision as both one-time consults and ongoing support, and immensely enjoys coaching other clinicians toward their professional goals. If you are a graduate student interested in a clinical internship, please contact us.
