About Fquira
Fquira Johannes is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 20 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, parenting challenges, relationship and intimacy issues, and grief. Fquira also addresses career concerns, ADHD, trauma and abuse, and a range of family-related problems.
She describes therapy as steady work that can feel different from week to week. Sessions can include laughter, tears, and anger as part of making progress. Fquira emphasizes that showing up for sessions is a key step toward change, and she partners with each person to take small steps forward.
Her approach treats the client as the expert on their life while she contributes clinical skills and structure. She often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at thoughts and behaviors, and Motivational Interviewing to support readiness for change. Mindfulness and Solution-Focused techniques are also part of her practice.
Fquira has experience helping people manage mood symptoms, addiction concerns, and the mixed problems that come from family conflict and blending households. She uses concrete tools in sessions, such as visual aids and activities, when they help the person engage and learn.
People who come for help with parenting strain, communication problems, or coping with life changes will find a direct, practical style. She invites clients to set clear goals and work toward them at a pace that fits their life.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's goals and priorities. The therapist listens, reflects, and helps people name what matters to them so they can take manageable steps. This approach supports work on parenting stress, family conflict, and personal goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors to reduce distress. CBT helps with anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and some eating or substance-related issues by teaching practical skills and small behavior changes.
Motivational Interviewing is a conversational method to strengthen a person's motivation to change. It is useful for addictions, ambivalence about treatment, and making life changes like improving communication or managing health behaviors.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That can mean trying one approach first and adjusting over time based on what helps.
Practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy routine. Online work can reduce travel time and make brief check-ins or regular meetings more manageable. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking to ensure the format fits your schedule and technology needs.
