About Jonathan
Jonathan Goelz is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with ten years of professional experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and challenges related to self-esteem and motivation.
Background and approach
He approaches each client with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, tailoring conversations and treatment plans to reflect individual needs and circumstances. Jonathan emphasizes practical strategies alongside emotional insight to support day-to-day functioning and longer-term growth.
He draws from evidence-based methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and integrates attachment-focused and client-centered perspectives where helpful. That blend allows him to address concerns ranging from grief, trauma, and intimacy-related issues to career, parenting, and ADHD-related struggles.
Jonathan accepts international clients and provides sessions from his Georgia practice using a range of formats to fit different lifestyles and schedules. Clients can expect a collaborative partnership aimed at clarifying goals and building skills for coping and change.
Jonathan frames the work as a process in which small shifts in thinking, behavior, and values can lead to meaningful improvements in daily life and relationships.
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to clarify their values and take purposeful action while learning to relate differently to difficult thoughts and feelings; it is often helpful for anxiety, stress, and problems with motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and modifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, and many everyday difficulties. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially useful for strong emotional reactions and relationship challenges.Finding the right approach is typically a collaborative process. Jonathan aims to explore a client’s goals, history, and preferences together and then adapt methods from these therapies to create a personalized plan that fits the client’s needs and pace.
Online work using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging makes it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to maintain continuity during transitions. These formats provide flexibility in scheduling and allow clients to access licensed professionals from different locations while pursuing consistent, goal-oriented care.
