Welcome to the

San Diego Therapy Collective

Therapy in San Diego for Sexual Assault & Trauma Survivors

San Diego Therapy Collective founder + therapist, Heather Johns

Hello and welcome! I’m Heather Johns, Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor #11588, Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, and founder of the San Diego Therapy Collective.

Here we specialize in helping trauma survivors heal while gently teaching your nervous system that you are safe. We would be honored to walk along side you in your healing journey!

Trauma can cause even the gentlest reminders to trigger overwhelming feelings, such as panic, rage, and dissociation.

Trauma therapy’s such as EMDR can help detach these emotions from the trauma memory, essentially taking its power away.

Our Services

  • Individual Therapy

    Our licensed therapists create a safe and judgment-free space where they will support you through your healing journey, helping you gain insight, learn coping skills, and build resiliency along the way.

  • Couples Counseling

    During Couples Therapy we work with both partners concurrently to help them recognize and resolve different forms of conflict, miscommunication, or challenges that may be placing a strain on the relationship.

  • Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing

    EMDR is a structured and evidence-based trauma therapy that uses bilateral stimulation and gentle exposure to detach distressing emotions from traumatic memory.

  • Gender Affirming Care

    We conduct assessments and can provide a letter for hormones/surgery/gender marker change/procedures/name change and more potentially life saving care for our trans/non binary/non conforming clients.
