About me
Hello, my name is Willie Johnson, MSW, LCSW- Thank You for considering my services...
I am a licensed clinical social worker in Las Vegas, NV, with over 30 years of experience working with individuals, couples, families, groups who are dealing with anger, trauma, attachment issues, depression, anxiety, panic attacks and other mood disorders. It’s extremely important for patients to realize and distinguish the difference between their original true personality and their bodies, feelings, thoughts, and emotions. In other words, YOU ARE NOT YOUR BODY, YOU ARE NOT YOUR FEELINGS, YOU ARE NOT YOUR EMOTIONS! You are not what you feel nor think. True, you do have feelings, thoughts and emotions, but you are not them.
Within this therapeutic relationship, you will learn, recognize, and identify the secondary emotions and personalities that’s trying to manipulate, control and change your character and personality. You will also learn how to release yourself from the pain and guilt of harm done to you or the harm you have done to others or even to yourself. Our goals in therapy is not just to cope or manage these emotional concerns, but to completely get rid of and totally destroy them out of your life. Through self-reflection, therapy will help develop your capacity to be more self-aware, recognize and challenge negative thoughts and build towards a more safe and healthy life functioning.
I believe that prioritizing your mental health is an investment in self; it is an active step towards your healing journey.
"Four Stages To Your Emotional Health & Healing"
1. Love Everybody,
2. Forgive Everybody,
3. Respect Everybody &
4. Be Kind To Everybody -- Starting With Yourself.
I look forward to working with you.

He is wonderful ❤️
Willie is awesome!
Hepled me through a really tough time. Great therapist.
Willie is a good therapist and a positive influence in many aspects.
The therapist chosen for me is a blessing I didn't know I needed. I appreciate having him to talk to and for the check ins between sessions just to see how I am, they always come at a time I'm feeling down or just needed that extra boost of confidence.
I found Willie to be very helpful in all areas of my life.
An amazing, compassionate man who provides wonderful advice and council.
Willie is kind & caring person, and shows it throughout his sessions. I found his sessions very calming and inspirational.
Just off of one session I was able to feel better and be better. I look forward to continuing our sessions.
Only my first session with Willie it was good and immoptomistic
Only have had one session so far and it was incredible!
I hard working and understanding therapist that listens.
Oh my goodness where do I start!! He is awesome! I am Christian, he refers to the Bible and through scripture he has really given me so many tools to get through every day! We really connected instantly! We laugh, and he is genuinely concerned for my well being. WILLIE also keeps up with me through text messages, he tells me to stay encouraged! Thanks Willie Johnson!!!
He is a great therapist! Great advice !
When I signed up for help, I was very guarded and felt like it would be difficult to open up to a stranger. Immediately, Willie was welcoming and made this entire experience very worthwhile. I feel like I can express my concerns, am heard and receive timely input from him. I am very grateful for his time and expertise
It took three attempts to connect with a therapist that worked for me and I'm glad I stuck with it. Willie helps me be the me I want to be.
Love everyone.
Forgive everyone.
Willie is the best therapist I have ever met with! He listens, gives great advice and helps me understand my thoughts and feelings from a different perspective that supports the growth of my mental health. Thank you Willie! I am thankful and appreciate you very much!

Willie is amazing. Great guy and great to talk to. He speaks with positivity and is motivated to help you out. He is also a great listener. I highly recommend him.
Easy to talk to and patient
Fatherly energy that's needed he is a must have.
Willie was exactly what I was looking for in a therapist, someone who wants you to be a better version of yourself. He holds your accountable to what is unhealthy but also a total hype man when it comes to your triumphs. He is positive, understanding, and caring. I look forward to our sessions every week.
