About Jeanni

Jeanni Johnson-Green is a licensed clinical social worker who draws on 15 years of professional experience to support people through periods of change, loss, and relational challenge. She blends practical, evidence-informed methods with a warm, attentive presence, helping clients clarify treatment goals and move toward healthier patterns.

Background and approach

Her training includes work in acute care settings and a Master of Social Work from Columbia University, grounding her practice in both clinical depth and real-world responsiveness. Jeanni integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered and emotionally focused techniques to address concerns such as anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, anger, self-esteem, and mood disorders including bipolar.

She also attends to multicultural concerns, prejudice and discrimination, workplace stress, life purpose, and challenges linked to disasters or isolation. Jeanni describes her style as encouraging, pragmatic, and nonjudgmental, combining multiple therapeutic methods, life experience, and a sense of humor to create a collaborative space for change.

Licensed in Minnesota and New York as LICSW and LCSW respectively, she offers sessions from New York and uses an approach that centers the client’s values and goals while adapting methods to fit individual needs.

Therapeutic approaches and online access

Jeanni frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. She also draws from Client-Centered Therapy, offering a nonjudgmental, empathetic stance that prioritizes the client’s own experience and goals. A third influence in her work is Emotionally-Focused Therapy, which helps people explore and reorganize emotional responses that affect relationships and intimacy.

Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. Jeanni discusses clients’ needs, values, and therapeutic goals to determine which combination of methods will be most helpful, and she adapts techniques over time as progress and priorities evolve.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and fit different schedules and comfort levels. These formats allow clients to access licensed professionals from their own locations, making it easier to maintain consistency in care while balancing work, family, and other commitments.
