About Jonathan

Jonathan De Jesus is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who draws from cognitive-behavioral, dialectical behavior, and solution-focused methods to support clients navigating life’s challenges.

Background and approach

He uses an interactive, conversational approach that blends practical skills training with psychoeducation so clients can learn strategies to manage stress, anxiety, ADHD symptoms, mood concerns, and relationship or parenting difficulties. With three years of clinical experience, Jonathan emphasizes respect and compassion while offering gentle, non-confrontational challenges tailored to each person’s readiness for change.

He helps people address a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, anger, self-esteem, career transitions, and coping with life changes, and brings attention to issues like communication problems, control issues, dissociation, and obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Sessions are organized around individualized treatment plans that reflect clients’ needs and comfort levels.

Jonathan frames therapy as a collaborative process and invites clients seeking practical tools and thoughtful support to explore growth, self-understanding, and clearer problem-solving pathways.

Online therapy rooted in practical, skills-based approaches

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, offering concrete techniques to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and obsessive-compulsive tendencies. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improved interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for intense emotions or relationship strain.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Jonathan works with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and comfort level, and adapts treatment plans over time as progress and preferences emerge.

Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexible options for different lifestyles. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow ongoing skills practice between sessions, and support continuity of care regardless of location within Texas. Licensed professionals can use these tools to deliver consistent, skills-focused work that aligns with each person’s goals.
