About Jonathan
Jonathan Gerson is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 12 years of experience and a long history working with older adults. He focuses on helping people rebuild self esteem after major life changes. He also supports people managing grief, stress, anxiety, and the effects of chronic illness and caregiving. His tone is practical and steady in sessions, aiming to make therapy straightforward and understandable.
He uses client-centered methods to keep conversations focused on each person’s goals. Jungian ideas and narrative therapy help people make sense of life stories and identity changes. Mindfulness techniques are woven in to offer tools for stress and emotional regulation. Motivational interviewing is used when people want help making concrete changes.
Jonathan has worked with seniors since 1990 and has developed approaches aimed at dementia-related concerns and end-of-life issues. He helps people do structured life review and celebration of achievements when losses or cognitive decline affect self esteem. He also supports those adjusting to retirement or facing caregiving roles.
Sessions are intended to be collaborative and paced to individual needs. He frames work around clear, practical steps such as identifying strengths, mapping small behavior changes, and creating ways to remember meaningful life moments. The goal is to leave people with skills they can use between appointments.
