About Jonathan

Jonathan Stahl is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida with 11 years of clinical experience. He focuses on helping people manage anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship struggles, and life transitions. Jonathan also supports men exploring issues tied to identity, stress, and self-esteem.

He earned a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Stetson University in 2013. Over his career he has worked with individuals from their teens into later adulthood. He has worked with symptoms of trauma, domestic violence, ADHD, grief and loss, and substance use concerns, among other issues.

Jonathan draws from multiple therapy approaches so he can adapt to each person. In sessions he combines client-centered talk with practical cognitive behavioral tools and emotion-focused strategies. He aims to help people set clear goals, try small changes, and notice what works in everyday life.

He also brings experience supporting people around relationship problems, communication and parenting concerns. While he does not run couples therapy in all settings, he uses his background to help individuals better understand relationship dynamics and plan next steps.

People who choose him can expect straightforward conversations, attention to values and meaning, and concrete steps for coping. He encourages collaboration so clients shape the pace and focus of their work together.

How therapy approaches shape online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, acceptance, and following the client's lead so people feel heard and can choose goals that matter to them. This approach helps when someone needs a supportive space to talk through stress, identity questions, or relationship worries.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and sleep or eating concerns because it offers concrete skills to try between sessions.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify, name, and work with strong emotions to improve relationships and emotional regulation. It can be helpful for addressing attachment-related issues, grief, and relationship hurt.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they will try methods and adjust the plan based on what helps in day-to-day life.

If you plan to use online therapy, confirm the available session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people use therapy from different locations when that helps their schedule.
