About Jonathan
Jonathan Rodriguez is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New Jersey with 14 years of clinical experience. He works with adults on concerns like depression, anxiety, identity exploration, and relationship dynamics. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.
He focuses on practical, everyday problems that get in the way of functioning. That includes attachment issues, caregiver stress, fatherhood concerns, communication problems, family of origin issues, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. He also addresses multicultural concerns, prejudice and discrimination, guilt and shame, forgiveness, life purpose, men’s issues, and seasonal affective disorder.
Jonathan describes his style as client centered and collaborative. He listens actively, helps people notice and test negative thought patterns, and works with clients to try new ways of relating. He draws on a mix of approaches to fit what each person needs.
In sessions he tends to focus on understanding patterns that repeat across relationships and daily life. He helps people name difficult feelings and practice different responses. Work can include skill practice, talking through difficult memories, and checking how new behaviors feel in day-to-day situations.
He notes that counseling is a partnership: goals are set together and adjusted as progress is made. For Spanish speakers he offers services in Spanish to improve access for diverse communities.
BHow sessions work
How evidence-based techniques are used in online sessions
Jonathan integrates evidence-based techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy in clear, practical ways. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavior changes to see what shifts. Dialectical Behavioral Therapy offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance and interpersonal effectiveness.He also uses a psychodynamic perspective to help clients notice recurring patterns that come from past relationships. That approach looks at how history shows up in current behavior and helps people make different choices. Choosing which approach to use is a collaborative process between the client and the therapist based on needs and goals.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions will be delivered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people practice new skills in the flow of daily life and bring specific situations into conversation during sessions.
