About Jonathan
Jonathan Goelz is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with ten years of experience providing mental health support. He is licensed in New York and California and practices from Georgia. Jonathan works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, low self-esteem, depression, compassion fatigue, relationship and family concerns, grief, anger, and other life shifts.
He focuses on straightforward conversation and practical strategies. Sessions typically look at what currently gets in the way of daily functioning. He helps people notice patterns, test new responses, and develop concrete skills to manage strong feelings and urges.
Jonathan uses a mix of approaches to match the person and the problem. He draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. He also uses acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and build willingness for difficult emotions.
Attachment-based work and client-centered methods shape how he talks about relationships and trust. These approaches support people working through commitment, abandonment, intimacy, and communication issues. Dialectical behavior ideas appear when emotion regulation and coping skills are the focus.
Practical concerns such as parenting stress, career pressure, body image, ADHD, and post-trauma coping are part of his caseload. Jonathan also works with people navigating sexual subcultures, adoption and foster-care histories, and aging-related challenges. He offers direct, plainspoken guidance aimed at better day-to-day handling of anger and other strong feelings.
To begin, people complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session. The initial work is about clarifying goals and choosing approaches that fit the person’s life and priorities.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes noticing thoughts and feelings while clarifying what matters to an individual. It helps people carry on with meaningful actions even when strong emotions are present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought and behavior patterns to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills for managing intense feelings and interactions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jonathan treats approach selection as collaborative. He will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped in the past to pick strategies that fit the client's life and needs.
