About Jonathan

Jonathan Stahl is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 11 years of clinical experience. He uses a practical, person-focused approach to help people manage problems like anger, anxiety, depression, and addiction. Jonathan speaks English and aims to make therapy straightforward and useful for everyday life.

He draws on several therapy styles rather than one fixed method. That helps him match tools to a person’s needs, whether the issue involves grief, relationship strain, parenting questions, or challenges at work. Sessions typically focus on clear goals and steps to move forward.

Jonathan has worked with a wide range of concerns, including trauma, domestic violence, ADHD, eating and sleeping problems, caregiver stress, and issues related to sexuality and kink culture. He also brings experience supporting people facing career transitions, codependency, and substance use problems. This background informs how he builds practical strategies with each client.

In the room, he blends client-centered listening with techniques from cognitive behavioral and emotionally-focused approaches. He helps people identify patterns, practice new responses, and track progress between meetings. Therapy is collaborative - clients set the pace and priorities.

To begin, Jonathan asks people to describe their goals and current struggles. From there he works with them to set realistic steps and measurable objectives. He emphasizes concrete skills and small changes that add up over time.

How Jonathan’s Approaches Translate to Online Therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting working relationship. It helps people feel heard and guides the work around their priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thought and behavior patterns and teaches practical tools to change unhelpful habits and reduce symptoms like anxiety and anger. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name emotions so they can respond to themselves and others in clearer ways.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jonathan will work with each person to see which methods fit their goals and preferences. Sessions can adapt over time, mixing approaches as needs change and progress becomes clearer.

Please confirm current session options before booking, since specific formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and let people use therapy from a familiar setting. Some formats may be better for quick check-ins, while others allow longer, more in-depth work. Talk with the therapist about what will best match your routine and goals.
