About Jonathan
Jonathan Sedarati offers direct, practical counselling for people who know something needs to change but aren’t sure where to start. He speaks plainly and focuses on real problems like anxiety, low mood, addiction, difficulties with intimacy, and struggles at work. Sessions aim to make small, manageable shifts that add up to bigger change over time.
He uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people understand patterns that keep causing pain. That can include looking at attachment and codependency, working on communication and commitment issues, or tackling control problems and substance use.
How Jonathan works
He also supports people coping with family of origin difficulties, career uncertainty, low self-esteem, and life transitions. Jonathan has seven years of clinical experience and holds BACP accreditation, which reflects his professional standing in the United Kingdom. He works with people who want practical tools as well as space to talk things through.
His style is straightforward and collaborative rather than didactic. Sessions can focus on specific goals such as managing panic, improving sleep and eating patterns, or rebuilding trust after infidelity. He also helps clients explore broader questions like life purpose and feelings of emptiness or isolation.
Work is paced according to each person’s needs and practical commitments. People can choose shorter check-ins or longer work depending on what fits into their life. Jonathan accepts clients internationally and conducts sessions in English.

How Jonathan's approaches work online
Jonathan uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing unhelpful patterns and building coping skills. One common approach helps people identify and shift patterns of thinking and behaviour that worsen anxiety or depression; it involves setting clear goals and practising new ways of responding between sessions. Another emphasis is on attachment-related work, which looks at how early relationship experiences shape current ways of relating and can help with issues like codependency, commitment anxiety, and intimacy problems.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. Jonathan explores your goals, history, and what feels most helpful, then adapts methods to fit your needs. He works with you to try techniques, review progress, and adjust the plan as you go rather than imposing a fixed method up front.
Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make counselling easier to fit into everyday life. Video calls allow a conversational, face-to-face style; phone sessions can be a simpler option if bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to use video. Live chat and messaging suit brief check-ins, reflection between sessions, or people who prefer writing. These options give flexibility for people juggling work, family, or travel while staying engaged with therapy.
