Jonathan Donnald

Jonathan Donnald is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in South Carolina. He has seven years of experience across settings from inpatient behavioral health to telehealth. He helps people learn what is driving their struggles and build practical skills to move forward.

Jonathan uses a collaborative, down-to-earth style in sessions. He does not follow a single method for everyone. Instead he adapts evidence-based techniques to fit each person's needs and daily life.

He works with adolescents and adults who are coping with anxiety, depression, stress, trauma and abuse, anger, and family-related concerns. He pays attention to how patterns repeat and to small changes that can make a real difference.

Jonathan has specific experience supporting adolescents with emotional and behavioral challenges, including those on the autism spectrum. He also supports adults facing life transitions and ongoing stressors who want concrete tools for change.

In sessions he focuses on understanding what keeps problems going and on teaching skills people can use outside the therapy hour. He aims to make the process straightforward and practical so progress feels noticeable over time.

Approaches that translate well to online work

Jonathan draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts them to each person's needs. One common approach focuses on identifying patterns that keep problems going and teaching concrete skills to interrupt those cycles; this helps with anger, anxiety, and everyday stress. Another approach emphasizes teaching emotion regulation and coping strategies, which gives people tools to manage strong feelings in real time.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Jonathan collaborates with clients to test methods and adjust as goals and circumstances change. He tailors strategies to what fits the client's routine and what they are willing to try between sessions.

If you are interested in online therapy, confirm available session formats before booking since the listed biography does not specify formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed.
