Introducing Angela Johnson: The First Practicum Fellow of The Montfort Group

Описание: What if the hardest chapters of your life became the experience that makes you a steadier presence for others?

Angela Johnson joins Laurie for her first conversation as The Montfort Group’s inaugural practicum fellow — a role shaped by a long, honest road back to herself. Her path into counseling took the scenic route: a career in education, a complicated pregnancy, divorce, blended family challenges, and the quiet shock of the empty nest. The result is a therapist-in-training with an uncommon mix of humility, clarity, and practical wisdom.

In this episode, Laurie and Angela talk openly about what real-life experience brings into the therapy room, especially when clients are navigating the messy spaces between roles like co-parenting, blending families, redefining partnership, or figuring out who they are when the kids leave. Angela offers the kind of insight that comes from living it — slow pacing, healthy boundaries, clarity around discipline, respect for each child’s loyalties, and a deep understanding of what helps a new family system hold.

Angela begins seeing clients this December, and her work is especially supportive for women in transition, parents navigating blended families, and couples trying to protect the foundation they’ve built. If you’ve been thinking about starting therapy or finding a guide for this next chapter, this is a beautiful way to meet her.
