About Jonathan
He trained with a BA in Psychology from Texas State University and an MA in Counseling from St. Edward's University in Austin, Texas. Early in his career he focused on gender dysphoria, coming out, and issues common in LGBTQ+ communities. That background informs how he supports people navigating identity and relationship questions.
Jonathan helps people facing depression, anxiety, trauma, and the stress of life changes. He also works with concerns around addictions, grief, self-esteem, anger, and intimacy-related issues. He often supports parents who are learning how to understand and accept a child who identifies as LGBTQ+.
His clinical methods include Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy. In sessions he favors plain language and practical conversation over clinical jargon. He focuses on building trust and working with each person’s real experiences.
Jonathan frames therapy as a collaborative process where goals are set together. He draws on different approaches to match what each person needs, whether that means tackling unhelpful thinking patterns, processing past trauma, or finding immediate steps to manage stress.
