A FEW WORDS FROM JONATHAN:
My therapeutic focus is to empower clients by helping them identify areas in their lives where they can develop a sense of control, while also exploring how energy is sometimes expended on factors beyond one’s influence. I place a strong emphasis on recognizing the impact of thoughts and thinking patterns, guiding my clients to release unhelpful or distorted beliefs and replace them with more balanced and constructive perspectives.

I have a particular interest in working with military service members and veterans, and am also skilled in supporting men through challenges related to men’s mental health. My areas of expertise include managing depression, anxiety, grief, self-esteem issues, and anger.

Outside of his professional work, Jonathan enjoys spending quality time with his family. He has a strong appreciation for the outdoors and takes full advantage of the opportunities Idaho offers for hiking, exploring, and other outdoor activities.
