Welcome
​
Thank you for being here. If you are reading this, something I shared likely spoke to both your mind and your heart. Reaching out for therapy is often a sign that you are in a reflective moment in your life—pausing to ask deeper questions such as:
​
Is my life moving in the direction that feels right for me?
Does the way I’m living reflect what truly matters to me?
Do I feel energized and engaged with my life—or mostly drained and disconnected?
Do I feel that what I’ve done so far matters?
What would my highest, most authentic self choose in this season of my life?
You may be in a relationship that feels painful, disconnected, or lonely. You may be in a career that is energetically draining. You might be an athlete feeling stuck, blocked, or unable to access your full potential. You could be navigating a major life transition—divorce, becoming an empty nester, moving to a new place, being a student in a new environment, facing academic pressure or loneliness, or adjusting to life as an immigrant in a new culture. You may even be feeling overwhelmed by the current political and social climate and the growing sense of disconnection in our world.
Wherever you are, I want you to know this:
you are not alone—and there is hope.
​
If you’re ready to shift old relationship patterns and create a life that feels more authentic and fulfilling, you’re in the right place. With over 25 years of clinical experience, I integrate relational neuroscience, depth psychotherapy, and heart-centered approaches to support high-achieving individuals and those navigating major life transitions.
Meet Dr. Marovic-Johnson
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), a Missouri-approved clinical supervisor, and a doctoral-level clinician with over 25 years of experience providing psychotherapy, clinical supervision, teaching, research, and professional training. My work reflects a deep integration of clinical practice, scholarship, and leadership across diverse settings and populations. My approach to therapy is holistic, relational, and integrative—honoring the interconnectedness of mind, body, emotions, relationships, environment, lifestyle, and meaning.
​
I believe that all people have an innate capacity for healing and transformation, and that growth occurs when we reconnect with our inner wisdom and live in alignment with our values, purpose, and authentic selves. I focus on meeting clients where they are and creating a space of safety, compassion, and attunement, while exploring core beliefs, cognitive patterns, relational strategies, and environmental and lifestyle influences that may be shaping—or limiting—healing and well-being.
​
I place strong emphasis on nervous system regulation, emotional processing, relational safety, and heart-centered coherence, recognizing that healing occurs not only through insight, but through felt experiences of connection, safety, and meaning. I believe that how we experience the world is deeply shaped by our internal state, our relationships, and the environments in which we live, and that as we heal and remove internal obstacles, we naturally relate to ourselves and others in more compassionate, empowered, and connected ways.
