About Well Water  

You’ve made it here, and that matters. Life can be heavy, but you don’t have to carry it alone. This space honors your story and your strength. Our work isn’t about fixing you—it’s about reconnecting with what’s already within you.

At Well Water, we’re rooted in community. That means meeting you in spaces you feel safe, connecting you with local supports when needed, and collaborating with organizations that center care and healing. You don’t have to do this alone. Let’s keep walking together toward the life you deserve.

Carlton Johnson (He/Him)
LCSW-A, MSW

I am a Durham based therapist with a strong commitment to community, healing and social justice. Are you ready to start a journey of healing and self-discovery? Together, we’ll explore the roots of your challenges, build resilience, and work toward creating a life that feels authentic and fulfilling. Through compassionate guidance and evidence-based tools, I’ll take a person-centered approach to support you on whichever path you choose to explore.

Outside of sessions, you’ll often find me writing, hiking trails, and engaging in activities that nurture mindfulness and creativity, like reading, cooking, and exploring new ways to support well-being.

Other Services

Consulting - $100/hr
Well Water Counseling offers consulting for organizations and groups seeking to deepen their understanding of mental health, trauma, and culturally affirming care. I partner with schools, nonprofits, and community-rooted spaces to support strategic planning, staff wellness, program design, and liberatory practices that center Black wellbeing. Whether you're building something new or want to strengthen what already exists, I bring a trauma-informed, systems-aware, and heart-forward approach to every consultation.

Groups - $35/ member/session
In addition to individual therapy, Well Water Counseling offers group experiences rooted in connection, care, and culturally affirming healing. I design and facilitate groups that explore themes like wellness, identity, grief, and rest. If you have a group you'd like me to host—whether in your organization, community space, or a gathering of friends—I’d love to collaborate and create a space that supports reflection, growth, and restoration.
