Online support
How Jonathan’s approaches work online
Jonathan often uses Existential Therapy to help people look at meaning, choice, and values when life feels overwhelming. That approach invites clients to talk about what matters most and how to live more authentically. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, is used to teach simple exercises for accepting difficult feelings and committing to value-driven action. It can help with anxiety, depression, and behavior change. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in relationships and how early bonds influence reactions today; it can help with intimacy, communication, and trust issues.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist and client talk about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Jonathan adapts methods over time so the work stays relevant and practical for each person.
Online therapy offers several ways to connect: video calls for fuller conversation, phone sessions when bandwidth is limited, live chat for shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging for ongoing support. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow people to choose a format that matches their routine and comfort.
