13 years offering treatment
Everyone needs assistance and guidance from time to time. I have spent the majority of my career in mental health working with the homeless population, youth and individuals with severe mental health concerns. I have helped individuals to navigate a variety of issues. I am comfortable working with individuals who are on the Autism Spectrum, and the LGBTQIA+ population. I believe people should be allowed to grow and progress from whatever type of issues they are struggling with while being treating with compassion, respect and care. Each client should leave a session with tools they can implement in their own lives, even if that is just the release of being able to talk about their troubles or concerns. I approach therapy with a variety of modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Sometimes our emotions just become too much for us to deal with on our own. I believe my sessions are compassionate, yet challenging enough to help you grow. My experience is not only academic but personal as well. I hope that you will benefit from speaking with me, and I can help you enrich your life, work toward your goals, and reach your full potential.

5 years offering treatment
Hello! I’m Jonathan Green, a licensed therapist with 5 years of experience. I hold a dual master’s degree in Marriage, Couples, and Family Counseling, as well as Mental Health Therapy from the University of Central Florida. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of working with clients facing a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, parenting issues, life transitions, and addiction. I specialize in helping individuals manage stress and anxiety, navigate parenting challenges, and cope with life changes, as well as providing support for military personnel and veterans. As a military veteran myself, I understand the unique challenges that come with this experience. My treatment approach is client-centered, meaning I begin by listening to your concerns and goals, allowing you to guide me toward what you want to achieve. From there, I tailor the therapeutic process to use the methods that best fit your needs and will most likely bring you success based on your desired outcomes. Therapy with me typically involves both short-term and long-term goals. In the beginning, we will focus on addressing the areas that will create the largest and most immediate impact in your life. Once these key areas have been addressed, we transition into a “maintenance phase,” where we work on sustaining progress and achieving other goals that contribute to your overall well-being and everyday life. My goal is to work systematically, ensuring that we target the most pressing issues first, then gradually shift to maintaining lasting improvements. Whether you’re looking for support with a specific issue or seeking personal growth, I am here to guide you through the process in a way that feels manageable and empowering. I look forward to supporting you on your journey.
