About Jonathan
Jonathan Cottrell is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Colorado with nine years of clinical experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship concerns, depression, and ADHD. Jonathan also pays attention to chronic pain, illness and disability, communication problems, control issues, impulsivity, life purpose, mood disorders, and social anxiety.
He works with adults to talk through what is getting in the way of everyday functioning. Sessions aim to identify practical changes and small steps clients can take between appointments. Jonathan uses clear, evidence-based methods rather than lengthy theory in session.
Jonathan draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns and try new responses. He also brings in Emotionally-Focused and Solution-Focused techniques when the situation calls for them. The choice of approach depends on the problem at hand and the clients preferences.
In a typical visit he will help clarify goals, practice specific skills, and set short experiments for real life. Conversations tend to be direct and concrete, with an emphasis on what changes might fit into work, family, and daily routines. Clients are asked to report back so progress can be tracked.
Jonathan works in Colorado and conducts work in English. People who want to begin will be guided through a short matching questionnaire and scheduling step to set up an initial session. Payment uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
BHow sessions work
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients notice thoughts and feelings without being driven by them. It focuses on identifying personal values and taking small actions that align with those values, which can help with anxiety and life-purpose questions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches practical skills to change them, useful for depression, social anxiety, and impulsivity. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on feelings and attachment needs in close relationships and can help when communication and emotional connection are central concerns.Jonathan approaches finding the right method as a collaborative process. He will review your goals, try methods that fit your situation, and adjust the plan based on how the work goes. Expect decisions about approach to be revisited as progress is tracked and new priorities emerge.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let someone use video or phone depending on comfort, bandwidth, or what helps them focus on the work. Licensed professionals use these options to help clients practice skills in their everyday routines rather than relying only on conversations in the office.
