About Johnathan

Johnathan Hornig is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York with 25 years of professional experience. He works with people facing LGBT concerns, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes.

He listens first and keeps language plain. Sessions focus on practical problems such as rebuilding confidence, coping after sexual or domestic violence, managing gender dysphoria questions, and handling the emotional impact of illness or HIV/AIDS. He also addresses issues like body image, fatherhood concerns, and feelings of abandonment.

Johnathan bases his work on long-term therapeutic approaches. He draws on Psychodynamic Therapy to look at patterns that repeat in relationships and life choices. He uses Internal Family Systems ideas to help people hear different parts of themselves and reduce internal conflict.

In sessions he aims to create straightforward goals and steps people can use between meetings. He talks through emotions, helps identify small changes, and checks progress over time. He avoids jargon and uses plain examples so people understand what to try between visits.

People who come to him often want steady, experienced guidance rather than quick fixes. He works in English and practices in New York. To begin, people follow the site’s matching process and schedule an initial session through the online options.

BHow sessions work

How psychodynamic and parts work translate to online therapy

Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns that repeat in relationships and behavior. Online sessions can give space to notice those patterns in everyday life and bring examples into conversation. Internal Family Systems treats feelings as separate parts of a person; sessions help identify those parts, understand their roles, and reduce internal conflict. That approach can work well in talking-based meetings where a person describes what each part feels and wants.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose which methods to try first and adjust based on how the sessions feel and what goals emerge. Conversations about style, pacing, and focus are ongoing and practical rather than theoretical.

The site lists how to begin and the therapist follows that process. Practical benefits of online work include easier fitting of sessions into a busy week, fewer travel demands, and the option to pick a quieter time during the day for a focused check-in. Confirm the current session options on the booking page before scheduling so you know which formats are offered for your circumstances.
