About Jonathan

Jonathan Barratt is a qualified integrative counsellor and a registered member of the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which recognises professional training and practice. He blends person-centered principles with practical cognitive behavioral techniques to create a collaborative, goal-oriented approach tailored to each person’s needs.

Jonathan offers solution-focused strategies alongside CBT tools and coping techniques to help clients move toward meaningful change.

In sessions he aims to provide a kind, respectful, and non-judgmental environment where people can explore thoughts and emotions at their own pace. His practice emphasises working together to set realistic goals and to develop practical skills for day-to-day coping, while honouring each person’s values and lived experience.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Jonathan draws on client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and solution-focused techniques to guide online work. Client-centered therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of sessions, offering empathy and support to explore feelings and relationships - it can be helpful for issues such as trauma, grief, and relationship difficulties. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns, using practical exercises and coping strategies that often suit anxiety, depression, addiction recovery, and sleep or eating concerns. Solution-focused therapy emphasises setting clear goals and building on existing strengths to create manageable steps toward change, which can be especially useful for stress, motivation, and short-term problem solving.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and is treated as a collaborative effort. Jonathan works with clients to assess needs, preferences, and goals, then adapts methods and pacing so the work feels appropriate and achievable for the individual.

Online therapy offers flexibility and access to regular support through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, to maintain continuity during life changes, and to connect with a licensed professional from different locations while using approaches tailored to the client’s priorities.
