Hi there! I’m Mx. Lauren Johnson, and my pronouns are he/him/his(/they/she). I am the psychotherapist + founder of Neuroqueering Counseling Services, LLC, + I am so glad that you’re here! I provide telehealth therapy to self-pay clients based on Monacan land statewide in Virginia, USA. I am a queer, neurodivergent human, advocate, educator, + therapist. As an Autistic ADHD’er whose special interest is mental health, I highly value lived experience + incorporate it with my clinical training. I approach therapy with a non-pathologizing lens, as I believe in difference, not disorder. I specialize in working with trauma survivors with diverse lived experience from the LGBTQIA+, neurodivergent, + non-monogamous communities. (Self-pay only.)

My goal as a therapist is to bear witness to each client’s unique experiences as they see them, help them to better understand their own perceptions, and uncover the inherent strengths of each individual in a warm and supportive environment. I aspire to help each client gain the skills that work best for them to navigate the challenges of life and create a therapeutic space ideal for self exploration.
In building a trusting therapeutic relationship, I hope to empower clients to learn more about themselves, their personal history, their relationships, and to learn the skills necessary to meet their needs. I believe a supportive and challenging space is key to processing through each of these things and to meeting a client’s personal goals.

We all experience such a complex range of emotions and yet not all of us are taught how to talk about and process our feelings. As a therapist, I strive to hold a safe, warm, accepting space for my clients to experience growth and transformation.

Are you struggling to find meaning in life? Perhaps you are in a period of transition: between educational endeavors, entering adulthood, switching professional pursuits, leaving or entering a pivotal relationship, or struggling to understand your place within the world and feeling uncertainty around where you belong. Maybe you have everything you could possibly need, yet still feel a vacancy that permeates your thoughts and feelings throughout the day. Mindlessly scrolling, searching for others to connect with or more items to buy to fill the emptiness that continues to nag, unsatiated? It can feel insurmountable, the question of how to move forward and even where to begin. We are here to support you!

I am a licensed professional counselor with nearly a decade of post-graduate clinical experience with the young and young-ish adult population. I’m also a human being who’s living in this beautiful, challenging, predominantly patriarchal world, just like you. Toxic masculinity hurts all of us in various ways. Talking about (and learning to talk about) your feelings and experiences is a positive act of rebellion against those harmful social norms. You deserve more. When you work with me, you can expect a warm and collaborative environment filled with radical acceptance, gentle challenge, and a podcast recommendation or two. Laughter is often involved, and tears may be, too. All is welcomed.

It is my belief and practice that we are more than our limited thinking minds. If you have tried other traditional therapies and find them lacking, you may find my Transpersonal, Jungian, and Mindfulness-based Cognitive Behavioral approach to be of benefit.

I thrive to create a space that is safe and nonjudgmental for clients as they discover their genuine selves and create goals for being present with their loved ones. Registered as a board-certified Art Therapist (ATR-BC), I believe that creativity and art-making help to communicate, explore, and connect within one’s self and with their environment. I also specialized in individuals who have experienced trauma, including but not limited to interpersonal trauma, significant losses, and PTSD. Remote therapy only.

I bring both personal insight and clinical training to common mental health issues (anxiety and depression) affecting men in their 20s and 30s. My mission is to support you through an equal measure of real-world understanding and research-based psychotherapy treatments. Many of my clients tell me they enjoy working with me because I offer professional guidance that still feels conversational, almost like it’s coming from a trusted friend than Freud.
