About Jonathan

Jonathan Koleosho is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience and a BACP credential. He focuses on practical, one-to-one work to help people manage stress, anxiety, addictions and the effects of trauma and abuse. He also supports people dealing with depression, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and questions around sexual health and identity.

His approach is calm and straightforward. He aims to build an open space where clients can talk without judgement.

Background and approach

Sessions are aimed at helping people find manageable steps forward rather than overwhelming theory. Jonathan encourages realistic goals and steady progress. He draws on Client-Centred Therapy to prioritise what matters most to each person.

He also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to address unhelpful thinking and behaviours, and Psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat over time. These methods are used in everyday language so clients understand what they are working on. Jonathan often helps with related concerns such as eating and food-related issues, obsessive thoughts and compulsions, paranoia, and personality difficulties.

He also offers support around prejudice and discrimination, sexual assault and abuse, sex addiction, grief, and issues common in young adulthood. Sessions are offered in English and Jonathan accepts international clients. He works with people who are ready to take steps toward change and prefers practical, compassionate conversations that focus on what matters now.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Jonathan uses Client-Centred Therapy to place the person's experience at the centre of the work. This approach focuses on listening, understanding and following what matters most to the client so they feel heard and respected.

He also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which looks at thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going. CBT is practical and helps with anxiety, low mood, addictive behaviours and some patterns that cause daily distress.

Finding the right way of working is part of therapy itself. Jonathan will talk with each person about which approach fits their needs and goals. He works collaboratively to try options and adjust the focus as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video works well when face-to-face interaction helps the conversation. Phone sessions can be a useful shorter check-in and need less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer typing or want brief, flexible contact. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, study and travel, and to maintain regular contact over distance.
