About Jonathan
Jonathan Hines is a licensed counselor who brings seven years of clinical experience to his work in North Carolina. He holds LCMHC and LPC credentials and helps people address a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, addictions, bipolar disorder, depression, and issues with self-esteem.
Background and approach
He approaches each person as the expert of their own life and draws on collaborative strategies to build on existing strengths and move toward meaningful change.
His practice also addresses related challenges such as codependency, communication problems, control issues, drug and alcohol addiction, family of origin matters, grief around guilt and shame, hoarding, isolation and loneliness, life purpose, and obsessive-compulsive symptoms.
Jonathan uses practical, evidence-informed methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered listening, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques to tailor work to each individual’s goals. He frames therapy as a partnership and supports clients through the courageous step of seeking greater balance and wellbeing.
Therapeutic approaches and flexible online care
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) emphasizes identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and many forms of compulsive or avoidance-driven problems. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) combines mindfulness and values-based work to help people accept difficult internal experiences while committing to actions that align with what matters most. This approach can be helpful for persistent worry, low mood, and challenges with motivation or meaning.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Jonathan collaborates with each client to determine which methods fit their needs and goals. He draws from CBT, ACT, client-centered listening, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques as appropriate, tailoring interventions based on the client’s preferences and progress so that therapy feels practical and personally relevant.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase convenience and access to care. These formats allow clients to engage from home or other locations, fit sessions into busy schedules, and use different communication styles as therapy unfolds. The variety of options supports continuity of care and makes it easier to maintain momentum between sessions.
