About me

Are you feeling like you can't handle life's stressors? Is it hard for you to achieve goals and get your needs met? Are you affected by anxiety, depression, substance use, communication issues, intellectual or learning disabilities, mood swings, lack of social skills, or another mental health concern? Do you need an identity? Or a parent working to develop parenting skills? You can start making changes today by working to identify your needs, desires, and how you have been impacted by your biology, psychology, environment, and spiritual experiences while developing your identity and mastering coping skills in session today.
Utilizing motivational interviewing along with cognitive behavioral, solution focused, and reality therapies I collaborate with you to build on your strengths, improve functioning, deepen your relationships, and increase self-esteem. Through experiential therapy and individual challenges I highlight your needs, and increase your motivation and coping skills.
Together, we will work very hard to find what works best and engages you the most. Throughout the process you are invited to participate, reflect, and engage while making shifts in your life that will allow you enjoy life more, be more productive, and take on new challenges or transitions in your life.

This is my first time doing therapy and Jonathan has helped me understand the process as well how to best use the betterhelp platform in a way that best works for me. He is patient and listens carefully to what I have to say. He is also knowledgeable in ways and activities to handle different situations.
