I am licensed in Minnesota with 7 years of professional work experience. I provided my clients with individual, group, and family therapeutic services. I have experience in helping clients with stress, anxiety, anger management, motivation, self-esteem, confidence, depression, and communication. I enjoy challenging negative thought patterns and perceptions in order to help my clients achieve a more accurate, realistic, and positive outlook on life. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Every person's life is its own puzzle, and each needs to be approached in a unique way in order to provide effective services. I would like to work with you on how I could help meet your therapeutic needs and change my approach in order to accommodate them. It is extremely difficult to offend me, as my own ego has no place in your journey towards mental health. I encourage and welcome feedback and constructive criticism if you would like to adjust how we approach your therapy sessions!
It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. No one person is strong enough to deal with everything on their own, and having the ability to ask for help is where change can truly begin. I am here to support & empower you in this journey.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Kyle Johannessen. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
I’ve only done a few sessions with Kyle so far but I feel like those sessions are having an amazing impact on my entire life. He’s been a true professional and a wonderful voice to have in my life.
