About me
Hello, I'm Jonathan, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), experienced in working with individuals grappling with anxiety, self-esteem, and depression. Over the years, I've developed a deep passion for helping people navigate through challenges and build lives of contentment and meaning.
My orientation to therapy is solution-focused—utilizing a positive approach to empower you to find practical answers to the problems we all face in life. My work is guided by the motto: "Change is constant and it is achievable." I believe in the innate strength within each person and the opportunity for growth that comes with each challenge. I accept the following insurances: Aetna, Cigna, Optum, UnitedHealthcare, Oscar, Oxford, UMR; contact me at 281.617.9487
The mainstay of my practice involves cultivating a healing environment where empathy, trust, and mutual respect are paramount. I understand that each person’s experiences are unique, hence, I tailor therapy to suit your personal needs. I value an interactive, collaborative approach to therapy, where I can both listen and provide feedback. I am committed to helping you develop the tools, coping strategies, and self-understanding that will aid you in overcoming the hurdles you are facing and move forward.
I specialize in working with individuals experiencing anxiety, giving them the tools to manage symptoms, and find peace amidst the turmoil. In addition, I have extensive experience working with self-esteem issues, helping individuals to recognize their worth and build confidence. A significant part of my work is also devoted to helping those struggling with depression to find hope again and rediscover joy.
While it can be a daunting task to seek help and confront your struggles, remember that there is no brave without fear.
Together, we can illuminate your path of self-growth and healing. Taking the first step is the beginning of change. I look forward to providing you with a safe and supportive space where you can begin your journey to a more satisfying and fulfilling life.
