I am a Geriatric Counselor and I have pioneered a talk therapy approach to Dementia Treatment I call the DreamRem Method. It is a method that focuses on conducting a structured life review in order to chronical and celebrate the life of the Dementia patient. Self-esteem often suffers in those that develop Dementia and the Dream Rem Method helps to bolster the self -esteem to the persons suffering with Dementia. The DreamRem Methiod is most effective for those in the beginning to middle stages of Dementia. I work as well with seniors who are dealing with adjustment issues related to the changes around retirement. I deal with the grief from a loss of a spouse or family member. I have worked with a senior population since 1990.

Jonathan is very compassionate and down to earth. He does a great balance of listening, asking good questions, and giving wise, kind input. He makes you feel very comfortable talking about private matters in a way that’s not invasive or condemning. Highly recommend.

Jonathan is great at what he does. Though I haven't had any recent sessions (from being distracted with other things) I often reflect on what he's said whenever I feel like I need guidance. I am currently doing better than I have in the past 6 years or so thanks to that.

I have only had bad experiences with male therapists so I was very anxious when I saw I was paired with a male therapist. There is an inherent power dynamic when entering a relationship with any healthcare provider. Johnathan was so great. He listened to me, treated me with respect, and we were able to cultivate a collaborative approach to my mental health needs. I would highly recommend Johnathan!!
