Counselor /Podcast Host
Johnny is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Oklahoma and Texas. He is the owner of the Christian Counseling practice, Truth & Grace Counseling. Johnny is also a host of the podcast Faithfully Engaged. Johnny interviews guests on Faithfully Engaged who are engaging in culture instead of living in anger and apathy.
Being a conservative and a Christian is not very common in the counseling field. I found myself saying "conservative Christian counselors should be more vocal about their values." Through conviction I eventually created Truth & Grace Counseling. Instead of acting like a "blank slate" I reveal my values to my clients. I have found having an appropriate level of self disclosure actually lessens imposing these values on clients. Instead, I am helping clients make an informed consent of the worldview they want presented from their counselor.
From there, I made the Truth & Grace Counseling Podcast. While this has been a great show, I am now separating the podcast from my podcast and rebranding it as "Faithfully Engaged." This show is focused on engaging culture instead of living in anger and apathy. I also have plans of adding personal development services to the Faithfully Engaged brand as well.
