About Jonathan
Jonathan Sedarati greets people who feel stuck and want things to change. He writes plainly about life that feels off - low mood, anxiety, trouble sleeping, or repeated fights with partners, family or colleagues. Jonathan uses clear, practical conversations to help people work out what needs to shift and how to start moving forward.
He has seven years of clinical experience and holds BACP registration, which he uses as part of a UK practice.
Background and approach
Jonathan focuses on common life problems such as stress, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, and the effects of trauma and abuse. He also supports those dealing with self-esteem, career uncertainty, eating and sleeping difficulties, and ADHD-related challenges. Sessions aim to be direct and collaborative rather than lecturing.
Jonathan helps clients set realistic goals, spot unhelpful patterns, and try new ways of handling difficult feelings and situations. Work can include looking at attachment or family of origin issues, codependency, control and communication problems, and issues around infidelity or trust. He offers practical steps alongside space to talk about painful experiences like guilt, shame or isolation.
Jonathan describes change as a process that needs effort from both people in the room. He often helps clients break big aims into small, manageable tasks and check progress as they go. People come to him from across the UK and internationally for support with life transitions, finding purpose, and overcoming addictive behaviours.
He encourages a steady, committed approach so clients can build lasting difference rather than quick fixes.

Approaches that steer online work and practical benefits
Jonathan often uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing unhelpful patterns and building new coping skills. One common approach is structured problem-solving, which breaks big problems into smaller steps and tests what works in day-to-day life; this helps with stress, depression and difficulties like sleep or motivation. Another is a focus on attachment and relational patterns, which looks at how early relationships shape current behaviour and helps people try new ways of relating to others when dealing with intimacy, jealousy or codependency.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Jonathan works collaboratively to identify what feels helpful and what does not, adapting methods to fit a person’s goals and pace. He guides clients through options and revises the plan as progress is made so the work matches practical needs and expectations.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility for people with busy lives or limited local options. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation; phone sessions can fit shorter breaks or require less bandwidth; live chat and text messaging suit quick check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These formats make it easier to schedule regular contact, continue work during life changes, and try different ways of communicating with a therapist from wherever the client is located.
