About Jonathan
Jonathan Rasbach is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in Utah with three years of clinical practice. He supports adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and struggles with self-esteem. He also notes work around guilt and shame, attachment and abandonment, communication problems, and questions of life purpose and sexuality.
He uses a straightforward, person-focused style in sessions. He listens to current concerns, helps name the specific patterns keeping someone stuck, and works with whatever the person brings to the room. He describes his approach as trauma-informed and attachment-aware while using emotion-focused and cognitive strategies when helpful.
Jonathan integrates faith when clients request Christian-informed counseling and respects spiritual concerns alongside psychological ones. He also works with issues like compulsive sexual behavior, substance misuse, panic attacks, and post-traumatic stress. He aims to plan practical next steps clients can try between sessions.
Sessions are collaborative and paced to what each person can handle. He helps people talk through guilt and shame without judging what caused those feelings. He pays attention to how relationships and past losses influence current stress and behavior.
Jonathan practices from Utah and works in English. He brings over a decade of broader experience in mental healthcare alongside his three years of clinical counseling, and he frames treatment around clear goals and gradual change.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online work
Jonathan describes a trauma-informed way of working that pays attention to how past hurts affect present feelings and behavior. This approach focuses on recognizing triggers, stabilizing emotional responses, and slowly processing traumatic memories when a person is ready. It is often used for post-traumatic stress, panic, and complex trauma.He also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape trust, shame, and closeness. Sessions using attachment concepts help people understand repeating patterns in relationships and practice new ways of communicating and relating that reduce shame and isolation.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. He will help the client choose methods based on current problems, personal values, and what feels manageable. That choice may shift as work proceeds and progress is checked against concrete goals.
