02 · In Jonathan's own words
Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.
With over 20 years of experience in Human Services, I provide compassionate, client-centered therapy in a supportive and nonjudgmental space. I believe effective therapy is built on active listening, supportive reflection, clear communication, and unconditional positive regard. My goal is for you to feel heard, respected, and supported as we work collaboratively to create an individualized treatment plan that fits your needs and goals.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Kentucky with nine years of professional clinical experience. I help adults manage stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, mood-related concerns, motivation difficulties, low self-esteem, and confidence challenges. I also support clients coping with life transitions, adjustment to change, and emotional overwhelm.
My approach is person-centered, strengths-based, and collaborative. I focus on building a strong therapeutic alliance while helping clients develop practical coping skills, emotional regulation strategies, and tools for personal growth and resilience. Sessions are goal-oriented, supportive, and tailored to your unique experiences.
I believe therapy should feel safe, respectful, and empowering. Taking the first step toward therapy takes courage, and I am honored to walk alongside you as you work toward healing, balance, and meaningful change.

03 · What happens next
Jonathan practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Jonathan's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.
BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Jonathan at this point.
BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Jonathan is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Jonathan.
You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.
A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.
Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.

05 · Provenance
Jonathan's name, credential, state, subjects, approaches and biography are read from BetterHelp's therapist roster, which Maker Therapy re-reads once a day; this page reflects the reading taken on 9 Oct 2026. The licence number and NPI are cross-checked against public registers.
The plain-English method descriptions, the first-session walkthrough and the questions are written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such wherever they appear.
Maker Therapy is not BetterHelp, does not take bookings, and has not met Jonathan. There are no reviews or ratings on this page because we have no way to verify one. If you start therapy through a link here, we may be paid a commission - it does not change your price and it does not affect who appears here or in what order.
