About Preston

LPC Preston Johnson has 16 years of licensed experience in Mississippi and works with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, and addiction-related issues. He uses Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy to support people with a wide range of emotional and behavioral difficulties.

Preston’s background spans inpatient and outpatient care, acute treatment settings, K-12 school work, and adult counseling programs. He has provided individual and group therapy across these settings. That range means he is familiar with both short-term goals and longer-term support needs.

In sessions he focuses on clear, direct conversation. He values honest feedback, practical problem solving, and occasional lightness to relieve tension. Sessions commonly address self-esteem, grief, trauma and abuse, anger, intimacy-related issues, bipolar concerns, and coping with life changes.

Preston draws on CBT to look at thought patterns and behaviors that keep problems going. He uses Client-Centered methods to listen and reflect what people say. Mindfulness practices are used to slow down intense emotions and increase present-moment awareness, while Solution-Focused work helps set concrete, achievable goals.

He frames therapy as collaborative work. People who contact him can expect straightforward discussion of goals and steps to try between sessions. To begin, use the site’s See online therapy options button, complete the short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How his approaches translate to online sessions

Preston commonly blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in practical ways. CBT means looking at patterns of thinking and behavior and trying specific exercises to change them, useful for anxiety, depression, and addiction concerns. Mindfulness Therapy focuses on simple attention and breathing practices that reduce intense reactivity and help with stress, grief, and anger.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to choose approaches that match their goals, symptoms, and daily life. That planning can change as therapy progresses and as new priorities emerge.

Confirm current session options before booking since specific formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a weekday, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and avoid travel time. Therapists also adapt exercises and homework so they fit home or workplace routines and personal pacing.
