About Fquira
Fquira Johannes offers a straightforward, steady approach for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, or big life changes. She presents a calm presence and focuses on small, realistic steps that add up. Many clients come for help with mood problems, relationship struggles, work stress, or parenting strain.
Fquira practices in North Carolina and brings 20 years of experience to her work. She starts by listening and helping each person name their goals.
Background and approach
Sessions mix practical skills and gentle reflection. Cognitive-behavioral strategies are often used to spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Motivational interviewing helps when someone wants to change habits around substance use or other patterns.
Mindfulness techniques are offered to reduce reactivity and improve sleep and eating routines. The client-centered stance means the person’s own experience guides the pace and priorities. Solution-focused ideas are used to build on what already works in someone’s life.
Fquira has a Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential, LCSW, and nearly two decades of practice. She is familiar with concerns like bipolar symptoms, trauma and abuse, intimacy issues, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and family-of-origin problems. She also supports people facing blended family challenges, body image struggles, and codependency.
Work in sessions may include role-play, visual aids, short homework, or step-by-step plans. Fquira helps people break large problems into doable tasks. The aim is to make progress feel possible, even when it seems slow at first.
How her approaches work online
Fquira uses cognitive-behavioral therapy to help people notice patterns of thought and behavior that cause distress and then try different actions. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating issues, and many everyday problems. She also uses motivational interviewing to support people who want to change habits like substance use or other behaviors by exploring ambivalence and strengthening personal motivation.She approaches treatment collaboratively. Early sessions focus on listening and clarifying goals together, then trying approaches that match those goals. If an approach isn’t helping, she will discuss alternatives and adjust the plan with the client’s input so the work fits personal needs and preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video allows face-to-face conversation and demonstration of exercises. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit brief updates, homework exchanges, or people who prefer typing between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, care duties, or travel.
