About Jonathan
Jonathan Hines is a licensed counselor who brings seven years of clinical experience to his practice. He holds the Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor credential and the Licensed Professional Counselor credential.

Jonathan approaches sessions with a straightforward, respectful style. He treats each person as the expert on their own life and looks for strengths to build on. He encourages small, doable steps toward clearer goals and better daily functioning.
In therapy he uses a mix of approaches tailored to the person in front of him. That can mean working on thoughts and behaviors, clarifying values, or trying focused strategies to change unhelpful patterns. The aim is to create tools that fit a client's real routines and obligations.
People come for help with codependency, communication problems, control issues, and family of origin concerns, among other things. He also supports people facing substance misuse, depression, bipolar challenges, ADHD-related struggles, and social anxiety.
Sessions are straightforward and goal-oriented while still allowing time to talk and be heard. Jonathan helps people set practical goals, practice new skills, and notice what works. To begin, a simple intake and scheduling step connects a person with the next available appointment.
How Jonathan blends evidence-based methods with online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying what matters most to a person and taking steps that match those values. It can help when someone feels stuck or disconnected from life goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches concrete skills to change them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and obsessive habits. Motivational Interviewing is a conversational method that helps people resolve mixed feelings about change and build their own reasons to move forward.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jonathan collaborates with each person to decide which methods make the most sense for their needs, goals, and daily life. He will adjust strategies as progress is made and as priorities shift.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the specific session options before booking since the biography does not list formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when a longer session is hard to arrange. These practical benefits often help people maintain regular work on goals while handling life obligations.
