I'm the kind of person who likes to understand how things work. Not just the surface, but the mechanics underneath. Why you react the way you do. What triggers the spiral. What keeps you stuck in the same loops even when you know better.
I'm Kaitlyn Johnston. My approach is analytical and structured, which tends to resonate with people who are tired of vague advice and want to actually see how the pieces fit together. We'll map out what's happening, identify what's within your control, and build a plan that makes sense for your life.
I work with people dealing with overwhelm, anger, difficulty concentrating, and the kind of low mood that makes it hard to care about things you know matter. I'm also comfortable talking about identity, belonging, and the complexity of being different in spaces that expect you to conform. I welcome people from all backgrounds, including the LGBTQ+ community.
Our sessions will be focused and efficient. I respect your time. I'll help you set goals that are specific enough to actually track, and I'll help you build skills you can use on your own. The point is to make you better at navigating your own life, not to create dependency on our conversations.
If you're the kind of person who wants to understand the "why" behind everything, we'll get along well. Let's take this apart and put it back together in a way that works better.
