LCSW, 12 years of experience
Frequently rebooked
Hello, I am Jonathan. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over a decade of experience. I am committed to creating therapeutic spaces for others to be able to trust and receive a positive experience out of therapy. I am from Chicago and love all sports teams. I love giving back to my community and also spending time doing things in life that matter the most. I am a three time graduate of the University of Illinois (Go Illini). I am a believer that WE will get through any challenges that you have by supporting you through during your journey and counseling for you to live life to the fullest capacity beyond your counseling journey.
Within the first session, you can expect us to dive into some background information regarding what brings clients to therapy. We will also work through understanding what therapy is and what to expect from sessions and myself.
With my extensive and varied experience, I create a supportive environment where clients can address challenges across all areas of their lives. I am patient, recognizing that building a strong rapport is essential for maximizing the therapeutic experience and progress.Hel
I have more than ten years of experience working with individuals spanning from children to adults. Throughout my career, I have supported children within the child welfare system, adolescents involved in the juvenile justice system, as well as adults. My primary focus lies in assisting adolescents and young adults as they navigate life's complexities, though I am equally prepared to work with clients of all ages.
For over 10 years, I have used the CBT model to help clients reframe their thoughts.
Many of my clients have witnessed and experienced trauma. As we work through the trauma, I help my clients readjust to life prior to the trauma as best as possible.
Utilizing mindfulness-based therapy, I work with clients to cultivate present-moment awareness, reduce stress, and enhance overall well-being."
I use Solutions-focused therapy to focus on strengths and solutions, rather than problems, promoting positive change.
