Angel Johnson , LCSW

Angel Johnson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 16 years of experience supporting children, adolescents, families, and adults through a range of challenges. She currently serves as a clinical therapist at a residential treatment facility for at-risk adolescents, a role she began in Fall 2022, and she previously spent ten years working as a school social worker in Illinois. Before the COVID-19 period, she provided home-based therapy as a subcontractor, offering direct services to clients across age groups.

Her school-based roles included acting as a crisis interventionist, a change agent, and a community liaison, while her clinical work strengthened her case-management abilities and her capacity to tailor interventions to individual needs. Over her career she has worked with people experiencing abandonment, neglect, abuse, trauma, depression, anxiety, undiagnosed mental health disorders, domestic violence, and substance misuse.

Licensed in both Illinois and Indiana as an LCSW - which stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker - Angel approaches care with an emphasis on building rapport, setting clear boundaries, and forming a strong therapeutic alliance. She is known for being a careful listener who brings genuineness and empathy to sessions, and she views her role as a long-held professional calling. Angel also embraces remote treatment and its growing role in expanding access to mental health care.
