Jonathan Gilbert – Psychologist

About Me

Welcome! I’m Jonathan Gilbert, a counselling psychologist dedicated to supporting individuals through life’s challenges in a safe, confidential, and accessible online setting. My approach is compassionate and client-centred, providing a space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings with the guidance of evidence-based techniques tailored to your unique needs.

Therapeutic Approach

I work with contextual and evidence-based interventions designed to help clients create meaningful lives while embracing the challenges that arise along the way. My approach includes:

• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): Supporting clients in building psychological flexibility, connecting with their values, and engaging in actions that align with a fulfilling life.
• Mindfulness and Present-Moment Awareness: Cultivating the ability to stay grounded in the present, observing thoughts and feelings without judgment, which promotes clarity and reduces the impact of distressing experiences.
• Values and Committed Action: Helping clients clarify their values and take intentional steps toward goals that reflect what matters most to them.
• Strengths-Based Therapy: Identifying and utilizing clients’ strengths to foster resilience and confidence in the face of life’s challenges.

Through these methods, I aim to empower clients to navigate difficulties with openness, stay focused on what truly matters, and take actions that lead to a more fulfilling life.

Specializations

I work with clients facing a range of issues and transitions, including:

• Anxiety and Stress Management
• Depression and Mood Disorders
• Life Transitions and Personal Development
• Social Anxiety and Building Confidence

Professional Experience

With over six years in mental health services, I have extensive experience working with diverse clients presenting a wide range of issues, from anxiety and mood disorders to stress management and life transitions. My background in primary care has equipped me with the ability to offer targeted, skills-based support to clients, focusing on practical strategies that promote resilience and immediate, actionable change.

In my role, I provide psychological assessments and interventions tailored to the needs of each client, ensuring that therapy remains both accessible and effective within the primary care framework. This includes developing coping strategies, emotion regulation techniques, and resilience-building skills that clients can apply in their everyday lives. Additionally, I have facilitated group therapy programs focused on skills development and behavioural health, supporting clients in building practical tools for long-term well-being.
