That mix helps people reframe unhelpful thoughts, identify patterns in their story, and build practical strategies for day-to-day life.
Sessions aim to leave people with doable steps to try between meetings. People who choose Jonathan often want straightforward feedback and a partner who helps translate insight into action.

New clients start by sharing what matters most, and Jonathan helps map a path forward that fits their life.
How Jonathan’s approaches work online
Client-centered therapy centers on the person's own goals and values; the therapist listens closely, reflects what is said, and helps people identify their strengths to move forward. This approach suits worries about self-esteem, motivation, and life transitions.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, stress, anger, and patterns that feed addictive behavior by giving simple exercises and steps to try between sessions.
Narrative and solution-focused ideas help people reframe difficult stories and build short-term, practical plans. Narrative work looks at the story someone tells about themselves, while solution-focused work zeroes in on small, achievable changes that lead to progress.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Jonathan collaborates with each person to match methods to their needs, goals, and preferences rather than assuming one style fits everyone. Together they try things, review what helps, and adjust the plan as needed.
Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation; phone calls can fit into a shorter break; chat or text can be useful for brief check-ins or lower-bandwidth connections. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep progress moving between meetings.
