Oakshade Therapy

Meet Jonathan

By combining mindfulness and playfulness, I take a client-centered approach to my work. I am passionate about supporting those seeking to understand and integrate challenging aspects of their lives and experiences. I help others explore and develop their identities, and I have experience serving members of sexual minority communities including queer, trans, nonbinary, kinky and poly clients.

I prioritize developing a sense of belonging and wellbeing in all of the children, teens and adults with whom I work. I can assist folks struggling with too much chaos or too much rigidity in their relationships, behaviors or thoughts. Using the lens of interpersonal neurobiology, I approach client wellbeing as the interplay between one’s mind, brain and relationships.

I am a native to Austin where I spent my childhood roaming the trails, hills and creeks. As the city has grown, I have become aware of the effects of nature deficient disorder, and I remain passionate about the physical and mental benefits of being out in nature.

I appreciate how challenging it can be to seek support and look forward to speaking with you.
