About
Nicole believes in patient-centered, holistic care to help individuals achieve their goals. She creates a safe and inclusive environment where people from all backgrounds can express themselves and receive education about their treatment options. Nicole’s passion for mental health care began during her physician assistant school rotations, where she recognized a gap in accessible, high-quality support for vulnerable populations, particularly in rural areas and among pediatric patients. Outside work, Nicole enjoys attending concerts and musicals, tap dancing, and spending time with her husband and dog.

What patients are saying
-
Nicole is amazing! I’ve had several psychiatrists, and I’ve been with Nicole for the last five years and couldn’t be happier. I can’t see myself changing psychiatric clinicians unless my insurance changes.
-
Nicole Johnson is a wonderful clinician. Professional, caring, and empathetic.
-
I have great trust in Nicole Johnson. I have pretty complex medical needs and on top of that, I live alone with few friends so it has taken a lot of finessing to treat my mental health. I appreciate her.
-
I absolutely love Nicole. She gives me options and lets me decide what I want to try. She also doesn’t judge if I have to change meds because of price. She also can fit me in pretty quickly when I’m having issues. I will never change doctors.
