Jonathan Koleosho, BACP

Jonathan Koleosho is a counsellor with three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. He holds BACP registration, and he focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, and depression. He aims to create an open space where clients can talk about thoughts and feelings without feeling judged.

Jonathan's approach is straightforward and person-centred. Sessions begin by listening to what matters most to the client and setting practical goals together. He uses tools from cognitive behavioural therapy to help spot unhelpful thinking and form new everyday habits. He also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that may have developed over time.

In the room, Jonathan keeps things calm and practical. He helps people notice how their thoughts affect their moods and behaviours. He works with issues around relationships, intimacy, grief and self-esteem, and supports people facing prejudice or identity-related stress, including LGBT concerns.

He also has experience with eating and food-related issues, obsessive and compulsive behaviours, paranoia, personality disorder presentations, sex addiction, and sexual assault and abuse. Jonathan often supports young adults navigating early-stage life stresses and transitions.

Sessions follow the client’s pace and focus on small, manageable steps. He encourages clients to experiment with different ways of thinking and acting between meetings. The aim is steady progress toward clearer thinking and more comfortable daily routines.

How Jonathan’s approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy places the client’s experience at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what is said, and follows the client’s agenda to build trust and clarity. This approach helps with stress, relationship worries, and things that feel confusing or overwhelming.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small changes in behaviour. It is practical and action-oriented, which can help with anxiety, low mood, and repetitive habits. Psychodynamic work looks at recurring patterns and early influences to understand why certain reactions keep coming up; it can add depth to the short-term work when needed.

Finding the best approach is part of the therapy process. The counsellor will work together with the client to decide whether to focus on practical CBT tasks, deeper psychodynamic reflection, or a person-centred style that supports the client’s own priorities. That choice can change as the work evolves.

The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into busy schedules and reducing travel time.
