About Jonathan
Jonathan Rasbach is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) based in Utah. He has three years of clinical practice and over a decade of broader experience in mental healthcare. He focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, and self-esteem struggles.
Jonathan aims for a calm and straightforward style in sessions. He listens first, then helps people name what feels most urgent.
Background and approach
He uses practical strategies to manage panic, social anxiety, and persistent worry. He also supports people working through guilt, shame, attachment wounds, and life-purpose questions. His work draws on trauma-informed and attachment-aware ideas to guide conversations about past hurt and current patterns.
He blends emotion-focused and cognitive tools to help people change unhelpful responses. When appropriate, he introduces exercises for managing anxiety and for improving communication in close relationships. Jonathan also discusses issues like forgiveness, sexual concerns, and midlife transitions in clear terms.
He offers faith-informed psychotherapy when a client specifically wants integration with Christian beliefs and practices. Sessions are practical and aimed at day-to-day improvements more than abstract theory. People who choose him can expect regular check-ins on progress and adjustments to treatment as goals shift.
He frames therapy as a collaborative process that moves at each person’s pace. To begin, clients answer a short questionnaire and schedule sessions based on availability.
Approaches that help with anxiety and trauma
Jonathan draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on feelings and on thinking patterns. Emotion-focused work helps people identify and name painful emotions, then practice new ways to respond so feelings lose some of their intensity. This approach can be useful for panic, trauma reactions, and relationship hurt.Cognitive-based strategies address the thoughts that keep anxiety going. These techniques teach people to test unhelpful beliefs, shift thinking, and try behavioral experiments to reduce avoidance and fear. They are often recommended for social anxiety, general worry, and panic symptoms.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and comfort level, and will adjust techniques as progress is tracked. This makes the process flexible and client-centered rather than one-size-fits-all.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video is useful for longer talk therapy and skill practice, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, and messaging can support brief check-ins or between-session coaching. These options make it easier to keep regular sessions while managing work, family, or travel.
