More about Jonathan

Hello! I have had the privilege of working with many individuals suffering from issues such as chronic depression, relationship difficulties, obsessions/compulsions, attachment anxieties, and trauma-related symptoms. Psychotherapy can often be of immense help in these situations, and I am passionate about providing compassionate, evidence-based care based on a thoughtful understanding of the unique circumstances of your situation. I draw on various modalities, such as cognitive, psychodynamic, behavioral (e.g. ERP), and trauma-informed approaches to find the style of work that is best suited to your needs.
