Jonathan aims to create calm, down-to-earth conversations that help people think clearly about next steps.

Background and approach
Jonathan often uses Solution-Focused Therapy techniques to help people identify goals and small steps toward them. He invites clients to describe times when things felt better and builds on those moments. This approach suits people who want concrete strategies and quick, goal-oriented work.
He has worked with concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, grief, and issues around intimacy and identity. Jonathan also supports people handling career questions, parenting stress, guilt and shame, emptiness, and relationship challenges. Sessions aim to turn specific concerns into attainable next steps.
Clients can expect a relaxed tone and a focus on what they want to change. Jonathan listens for strengths and prior successes, then helps map practical actions. The work is collaborative and paced to the person’s needs.
Solution-Focused Work Online and Practical Session Options
Solution-Focused Therapy focuses on clear goals and small, concrete steps. It starts by asking what a preferred future looks like and then finds times when that future felt close. This method is useful for stress, anxiety, self-esteem struggles, and practical life problems because it builds on what already works.Jonathan blends a person-centered, conversational style with solution-focused questions to help people notice strengths and past successes. He collaborates with clients to choose approaches that match their goals and preferences. Together they decide whether brief goal-focused work or a slightly longer process will best fit the issue at hand.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls let conversations feel more like an in-person visit. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth or visual focus is limited. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, homework support, or when shorter, more frequent contact helps maintain momentum.
These formats make it easier to schedule sessions around work, parenting, or travel and allow therapists and clients to try different ways of working until they find the best fit.
