About Seth

Seth Johnson is a Wyoming-licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 21 years of professional experience. He works with adults facing grief, anger, stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship strains, parenting challenges, and a wide range of other concerns including trauma and bipolar disorder. Sessions focus on practical steps people can use in everyday life.

Seth uses several well-known approaches to help people sort out hard problems. He draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients notice what matters to them and take small actions toward those values. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of thinking that feed anxiety, depression, or impulsive behavior. He also brings client-centered and emotionally-focused methods to create a grounded, conversational setting where feelings and goals can be named.

In sessions he listens to the immediate problem and looks for clear next steps. That might mean short-term coaching for career or executive concerns, paced work on grief and loss, or tools for managing anger and addictive urges. He pays attention to communication and commitment issues when they affect a person’s day-to-day life.

Seth can also support people coping with caregiving stress, end-of-life matters, abandonment wounds, and the emotional fallout of illness or disaster. He aims to keep conversations direct and actionable so clients can try things between sessions.

To begin, people complete a brief questionnaire and schedule a first meeting. From there he and the client decide where to focus and what methods will be most useful.

How sessions work

How Seth’s approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice their thoughts and clarify what matters to them, then take small, value-driven actions. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and making life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors, which can reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, and impulsivity. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a conversational stance where the therapist listens and reflects so clients can better understand their feelings and decide next steps.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Seth will collaborate with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means starting with what feels most urgent and adjusting methods as progress is made.

Session format details should be confirmed before booking, as the biography does not specify formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and remove travel time. If you want to schedule a first session, complete the platform questionnaire and book a meeting to discuss which format will work best for your needs.
