Hi, I’m Jonathan and I’m a qualified counsellor based in the UK, accredited by the National Counselling Society (NCS).
I offer a warm, relational, non-judgemental, and confidential space in which my clients can share and explore any difficulties they are encountering. I'm guided in how I work by the client's pace and rhythm.
I have experience working with clients from a wide range of backgrounds and with a range of difficulties, including stress and anxiety, depression, anger issues, motivation, self esteem, confidence, identity related issues, including lgbtq, relationship difficulties, and issues at work. Taking the first steps in seeking counselling takes courage. I'll support you in that process.
My practice is grounded in the humanistic person-centred approach. This means that I'll really listen to you and explore with you how you make sense of yourself and your issues, as well as others and the world around you. I find this to be a robust way of addressing difficulties brought, and that it can often also help with issues that aren’t directly talked about. For instance, counselling might in some circumstances help improve a person’s sleep even though their sleep difficulties haven’t been a main focus of the sessions, but where underlying psychological and emotional issues contributing to poor sleep have been explored.
I also draw on elements of other major counselling approaches (including existential, gestalt, psychodynamic and CBT) to help ensure that the counselling meets the unique needs of each client. Therapeutic writing and art exercises can also be incorporated where a client wishes to work in this way and where it would be beneficial.
I sometimes find that a gentle and meaningful humour can help give respite to the seriousness of counselling and can contribute to it positively. I work with compassion and open mindedness.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Jonathan is a fantastic therapist I would recommend to anyone
Jonathan has been a great help to me this year and I would highly recommend him to others looking for non judgemental and open communication.
Jonathan has been a fantastic help to me. His patience, empathy and understanding throughout my sessions with him have allowed me to face my issues and find a way to understand and deal with them. I can't recommend Jonathan highly enough, he has been an amazing help to me.
Jonathan is a good listener and is empathatic to his patients. Also, he has a very good depth and breadth of psychotherapy. I would recommend him for therapy covering many different issues.
Jonathan has been incredible, providing me with insight into my own thoughts and feelings and letting me lead the sessions. Before speaking to Jonathan I would have never opened up about how I felt or what I thought but through these sessions I have been given the courage and encouragement to do exactly that. I couldn’t recommend Jonathan enough.
Jonathan’s expertise is clear. He refrains from tackling specific issues, but more holistically, helps to shift the perspective of the patient regarding specific issues. I did notice that quite often, it’s my perspectives that create the negative thoughts, and that it’s the perspective usually that is a root cause, with the negative thoughts being the symptoms. I like this approach, and will continue working with Jonathan in the future. If you’re looking for a more holistic approach to therapy, I think you’ll be in good hands with Jonathan.
