I help people to cope with depression, anxiety, sexual issues, marriage challenges, gender issues, addictions, grief, ADD, relationships, sex addiction and family issues. I've helped celebrities, business leaders and the general public to move forward with their lives
My clients are intelligent, insightful, caring, and generous people who feel turned upside down in their relationships. Some are in marriages that stopped working a long time ago and they want to make things better. Some have betrayed themselves and their loved ones with sexual behaviors that even they don't understand. And some are the partners of sex addicts, trying to figure out whether or not to work it out. My clients are amazing, compassionate people who want the best life they can have!
I specialize in working with individuals who identify as quirky, creative, LGBTQIA+, or those who simply don’t fit into conventional boxes. Whether you're exploring your identity, life transitions, or struggling with relationships and self-acceptance, I'm here to help you feel understood, validated, and supported. I approach therapy with an open mind and a dash of humor because growth doesn’t have to be all serious.
Are you struggling with overcoming overwhelming emotions, excessive worries, or significant life transitions? If so, you've come to the right place! Using a holistic approach, I offer comprehensive mental health services to help you achieve optimal well-being. With training in cultural competency, I aim to create a safe and brave space, allowing you to explore your thoughts and feelings freely. Together, we can empower you to reach your full potential and live your best life!
My clients are women, men, and nonbinary people. They successfully “put one foot in front of the other” to get through life, but feel constantly on edge or numb. I love working with helpers. If you tend to have room in your day and your life for everyone but yourself, and you want to know why you do that and HOW TO STOP IT (ok...realistically, do it less often, you're still going to be a caring and generous person after all), I'm the therapist for you.

Are you in your sad-girl era? Anxious? Exploring gender? Throuple trouble? Tired of therapist who judge you? If that’s you, look no further, our licensed therapists are for, and from our community. Just. Like. You. So, stop giving your hard-earned coin to unseasoned therapists who just don't get it. We are reimagining and reindigenizing therapy. More importantly, we’re giving you life with indigenous practices that are culturally appropriate, judgement free, and affirmative care.
Are you tired of bad "dates" with therapists, finding yourself explaining basic parts of your identity and feeling like therapy's going nowhere because of it? Maybe you're kinky, disabled, BIPOC, neurodivergent, queer, non-monogamous, all of the above, or don't subscribe to labels. I seek to create and hold space for your identities, growth, and exploration as we navigate your chosen path.
I often work with individuals and families who may be experiencing feelings of sadness, anxiety, or going through difficult times. I also provide guidance in handling life transitions, maintaining healthy relationships, and addressing childhood-related issues. I have extensive experience working with diverse populations.
Are you an adult struggling with issues related to trauma, grief, addiction, anxiety, or major life changes ? There comes a time when we need some help from a licensed professional to help cope with many of life’s challenges. Life can be overwhelming and sometimes even exhausting, but we’re here to guide you through any obstacles you may face.
I work with individuals whose brains never clock out and whose hearts carry more than they let on. If you find yourself lying awake at night replaying every interaction you’ve ever had (including that awkward thing you said in 2016)—or feeling everything all at once like it’s your full-time job—you’re not alone. Therapy can help you slow down, sort things out, and finally exhale.

You may feel sad, empty, numb, angry, hopeless maybe. You've entered a time in your life when you feel so many different painful emotions all at once you can't identify exactly how you feel or where they are coming from. Maybe you can't sleep at night, or focus when you are awake. Your anxiety is higher than normal and your doing things you normally wouldn't. I can help you get your life back in order and work through the hurts that are troubling you. Tomorrow can be better.
Jonathan specializes in supporting neurodivergent individuals navigating life transitions, addiction recovery, and mental health challenges. His integrative approach combines evidence-based therapies (CBT, DBT, and ACT) with mindfulness and solution-focused techniques. He creates a compassionate, structured environment where clients with ADHD, autism, anxiety, and depression can explore their unique experiences and develop personalized coping strategies.
At Newport Academy, we address the root causes of self-destructive behaviors, not just the symptoms. We guide teens and their families to achieve long-term, sustainable healing by treating the underlying issues—such as trauma, depression, and anxiety—that catalyze substance abuse, eating disorders, and other co-occurring disorders. Incorporating clinical, experiential, and holistic modalities, our gender-specific treatment is family-focused and results-oriented.

We determine our self-worth by comparing our lives and judging ourselves against unattainable or unrealistic standards (hello, Instagram). I'm here to say, "I get it" and to provide breathing room when you don't feel like you’re good enough, or when you have hit your capacity. I work with individuals who want to feel better about their bodies and their relationship with food, people navigating a little thing called motherhood, those those hoping to get the most out of relationships.
Clients seek me out when they want a supportive, high quality, low volume provider dedicated to client wellness. I provide Individual, Couples and Family Psychotherapy services to adults and adolescents. My clients are resilient, unique, and inspiring. My clients are motivated for change and are ready to actively participate in their own growth. Many of my clients are couples looking to improve communication and deepen their connection.
Do you often feel like anxiety is just beneath the surface, or find yourself struggling with overwhelming emotions out of nowhere? If you've experienced trauma, dealt with women's issues, or faced depression, these feelings can feel especially heavy. I understand how challenging it can be to carry these burdens. Therapy can help ease the impact of anxiety, depression, and trauma, and I’m here to guide you through the process of healing, explore tools to empower you, and create lasting change.
