Helping Couples Reconnect with Gottman Therapy

At Protea Therapy Ltd, we believe relationships can heal, grow, and thrive. Inspired by the protea flower, one of the most resilient plants on Earth, our name reflects the possibility of transformation even in the most difficult seasons.

I’m Lindsey Johnson MA LMFT, founder and therapist at Protea Therapy. I specialize exclusively in couples counseling using the Gottman Method, a research-based approach proven to strengthen communication, reduce conflict, and build deeper emotional connection. Whether you and your partner are feeling distant, stuck in repeated patterns, or simply want to invest in your relationship, I can help you create lasting change together.

I offer in-person sessions in Eagan MN and online counseling throughout Minnesota and Iowa. Protea Therapy is here for couples who are motivated to grow and ready to prioritize their relationship. Learn more >

With the Gottman Method, you will know what to expect every step of the way:

• Start Together: Share your story as a couple
• Individual Sessions: Each partner has space to be heard
• Work as a Team: Learn tools to strengthen connection and communication

From the very first session, you will begin building a stronger, healthier relationship together.
