LIBERATION THERAPY
Clarity
Peace
Simplicity
“All things wise from East and West, help to heal your deep distress.”
Experience full human functionality, psychological healing, and even spiritual liberation or enlightenment if you want it.
I offer service as a Psychotherapist with 25 years of expertise and the license and ethical boundaries of a Licensed Professional Counselor.
Learn how to integrate all the capacities of your left and right brain hemispheres. The left brain (thought, ego, and reactive emotion) is the realm of Western psychology and the right (creativity, curiosity, compassion, and spirituality) is more the realm of Eastern spirituality. You can be a fully integrated psychological person; if you want more, you can move walk the spiritual path called enlightenment or liberation. Both are possible!
Wrong thinking is the obstacle to EVERYTHING valuable in life, including psychological healing, a felt sense of Oneness, and a sense of belonging. Travel a path tailored to your own unique expression with my expert guidance and years of experience dealing with almost any psychological issue.
You’ve worked hard to get here.
At every turn, you followed what you believed to be the “prescription or script for happiness.”
You have a beautiful home, a rewarding career, a happy family, and close friends; and now struggle to keep it all going.
Inside yourself, however, success has not led you to the “promised land.”
Underneath the pleasant surface, you’re not peaceful or content.
You’re stressed, confused, anxious, and overwhelmed by thoughts and feelings you don’t understand, and you’re exhausted. You suffer too much!
Even the ‘escapes’ such as constant phone scrolling and endless media now make you unhappy. And you can feel your body getting tenser and your emotional tone more irritable, from lack of sleep and good self-care.
Your life has lost its meaning and satisfaction because you haven’t integrated your psychological experience enough to move into an exploration of your spiritual condition, and you don’t know how to anchor yourself to peace and stability. You can solve all of these problems with a path of psychological healing and integration. Once you get your psychological issues “sorted,” you can even move into the spiritual awakening/enlightenment/liberation that you’ve heard about, if that interests you.

Without psychological healing, everything feels incomplete or just not ‘right.’
Work begins to feel meaningless. Your emotional life is a mess and reactivity leaks out everywhere. Friendships feel hollow.
You feel incomplete in yourself, and know there’s more to you than this, but don’t know how to find it.
You are overwhelmed with conflicting thoughts about the past and the future and are starting to recognize that living in the ‘thought bubble’ is itself, the problem.
You’re trying to make sense of the present moment with thoughts but you can’t; thought is a separation from the sense-orientation to Reality available in every moment. Thought’s a great servant, but a terrible master.

You’ve tried to find a solution on your own, but it’s no use.
Talking to loved ones is briefly helpful, but you’re afraid to burden them with too much. Plus, they often turn the conversation to their own similar problems.
It’s difficult to cope with your complex life by adding new thought-based strategies to it; thought is an essential obstruction to psychological ease and even the spiritual path, so self-help books don’t help.
You went to meditation classes, learned mindfulness techniques, and practiced yoga and deep breathing. Yet, you don’t know how they’re supposed to work together to discover psychological healing and put you on a path of spiritual discovery.
Working by yourself, you weren’t able to get out of your own way or find the deep peace that you intuit is at the Core of who you are.
Something wants to change.
Continuing to struggle in this way is no longer an option.
Even though nothing has worked so far, you’re not ready to give up.
You’re determined to find a way to deep psychological healing and integration.
Liberation Therapy, which includes psychological healing and integration plus the discovery of your spiritual nature, is a complete solution.
It’s possible to learn to cope with problems in healthier ways. You can ‘make friends’ with your emotions and physical sensations, not to mention your thoughts!
A life of deep-seated awareness that includes: contentment, love, peace, ease, and freedom can be discovered, hiding underneath your thoughts.
It takes a regular time commitment (weekly or bi-weekly), financial investment, and courage, but you can discover healing, psychological integration, and even spiritual enlightenment, in this lifetime and transform into the unique person that you really are.

Hi, I’m Jonathan.
And for over 25 years, I’ve helped people find the answers they’ve been searching for, as a therapist and now also as a guide on the path of spiritual liberation (for those interested).
Together, we’ll create a step-by-step path to awareness of thoughts, feelings, sensations, the present moment and if you want, to your inborn connection to the Divine. That is the part of you that loves, feels one with everything, and is at peace.
You’ll learn how to vet your thoughts for truth and accuracy and identify the patterns holding you back. Using mindfulness techniques, you’ll develop the ability to live more presently in the moment where ALL satisfaction is found. And meditation practices can help you find greater self-compassion, acceptance and the deepest core of what you are.
No matter what you’ve experienced in the past, psychological healing and integration are available in your future. You can also set foot on the enlightenment path, if you’d like.
Book a free 15-minute introductory session with me now, and let’s take the first step on this healing journey together. People have been referring their family members, friends and colleagues for two dozen years. Maybe it’s YOUR turn?!

Commitment is Needed for Healing & Awakening
I’ve noticed that many people have come to me for help over the years but, if I look at who has been helped, it’s the people who commit to the process of either psychological healing or spiritual awakening. For some reason, commitment seems to be ‘out of fashion’ now....
