Johanna Nimmons LMSW

Johanna Nimmons, LMSW is a therapist and group facilitator at Luna who believes that meaningful change begins with curiosity, compassion, and understanding. She creates a warm, collaborative space where clients can explore the questions of how they got here, who they are, and where they want to go next. Drawing primarily from psychodynamic psychotherapy, Johanna helps clients uncover deep patterns in their thoughts, emotions, and relationships while incorporating techniques from Internal Family Systems, Coherence Therapy, and a mindfulness-based approach to support healing and growth.

Her work is grounded in empowerment, social justice, and cultural humility. She is committed to providing an inclusive, LGBTQIA+ affirming environment for clients of all backgrounds.

Before joining Luna, Johanna spent more than a decade working in nonprofit and community-based settings, supporting individuals facing complex personal and systemic challenges. She previously served Houston's unhoused population as a case manager and completed her clinical internship at The Lovett Center, where she provided individual and group therapy while receiving psychodynamic psychotherapy training through the Ethos Training Institute.

Johanna holds a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration and Communications from Liberty University and a Master of Social Work from the University of Houston. Outside of work, she enjoys reading, spending time outdoors, and adventuring with her husband and her cat, Figaro.
