Meet our Interns
Hi, I’m Mike Johnson, a counseling intern currently seeing clients under the supervision of a licensed marriage and family therapist. I approach therapy with warmth, empathy, and a deep respect for your unique story. Whether you're navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, parenting struggles, or simply feeling stuck, my goal is to come alongside you with care and curiosity—to understand you well and support you in becoming the person you hope to be. I believe real change happens in the context of safe, supportive relationships.
I work collaboratively with clients to explore what matters most to them, identify meaningful goals, and move at a pace that feels respectful and empowering. I bring particular experience working with teenagers and parents, and I welcome individuals, couples, and families from all backgrounds.
I can offer a listening ear, a patient presence, and an ability to create a safe, compassionate space to talk through whatever you're facing. Everyone deserves a space to be seen, heard, and understood. If you're ready to take a step toward healing or change, I’d be honored to begin that journey with you.
My name is Hilear Dance, and I am a Marriage and Family Therapy intern currently completing my clinical internship under the supervision of a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I am passionate about creating a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where individuals, couples, and families feel comfortable sharing their stories and working toward meaningful change.
As a U.S. Army Soldier with over 16 years of service, I have had the privilege of working with people from diverse backgrounds and life experiences. Those experiences have strengthened my ability to connect with others through empathy, compassion, and respect. I understand that seeking therapy can be a vulnerable step, and I am committed to meeting each client where they are with openness and understanding.
I welcome clients of all backgrounds, cultures, identities, faiths, sexual orientations, and family structures. Whether you are navigating relationship challenges, family conflict, life transitions, stress, anxiety, grief, or simply seeking personal growth, I am honored to walk alongside you in your journey. My goal is to provide an inclusive, affirming environment where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to create lasting, positive change.
