SMR Counseling Services
Ms. Angela C. Johnson received her Master’s in Counseling Psychology from Wayne State University in Detroit, MI. This degree allows Angela to work collaboratively with individuals and families to strengthen and facilitate personal and interpersonal functioning across their daily life span. Angela's areas of focus includes a variety of issues ranging from anxiety and depression arising from difficult life issues to more serious mental health problems. Life issues could include bereavement, career or personal changes, relationship difficulties, domestic violence, the aftereffects of rape or sexual abuse, while mental health problems could include Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PSTD), Adjustment Disorder, and Anxiety or Mood Disorders.

Angela has worked and provided counseling services to at-risk teens, crisis support with women who have experienced domestic and/or sexual abuse, and with youth who are victims of sexual abuse, physical abuse, or witnesses of violent crimes. Angela is trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and has extensive training in Trauma Focused Therapies which include Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and Trauma and Loss in Children (TLC). Angela provides individual, family, and group counseling.


SMR Counseling Services is where compassion is the key to helping you to lift those burdens and make positive changes in your life. We create a clinical atmosphere where clients feel comfortable and encouraged. We work one-on-one with clients in a personalized setting, allowing us to respond to the unique needs of each individual.

Our goal is to help you uncover your true potential in order to lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're just ready to move in a new direction in your life, we look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.
