Jonathan Feld, BACP

Jonathan Feld is a counsellor who blends client-centred work with cognitive and emotion-focused approaches. He offers calm, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed, low in mood, anxious or coping with intrusive thoughts. Jonathan speaks English and French and works with individuals who are looking for straightforward help with day-to-day struggles.

He draws on 18 years of practice in the United Kingdom and previous work in France. His background includes roles in public services, crisis response, criminal justice and community NHS mental health teams. He also spent time as a corporate coach in the 1990s and early 2000s, which informs his practical, results-focused style.

In sessions he focuses on what matters most to the person in front of him. Conversations look at thoughts, feelings and patterns that get in the way, and then test simple changes. He uses mindfulness, motivational interviewing and solution-focused ideas alongside client-centred listening.

Jonathan commonly helps people with anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, addictions, grief and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. He also works with people facing life changes, career pressures, parenting stresses and ADHD-related difficulties.

Many clients appreciate clear steps and short-term goals, alongside space to reflect. Jonathan’s practice aims to be collaborative and practical, helping people to make manageable changes and feel steadier in daily life.

Approaches that suit online counselling

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding what matters to the person. The therapist follows the person's lead, helping them feel heard and clear about their priorities. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviours feed problems and tests small changes to reduce symptoms and improve coping. Emotionally-focused therapy (EFT) helps people notice and name emotions, and work through patterns that strain close connections.

Finding the right approach is part of the work itself. Jonathan will discuss your goals and preferences and together you will try methods that fit your situation. That collaborative process helps decide whether mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing or CBT-style tasks are most useful for you.

Confirm the session formats available before booking, since the biography does not list explicit options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people choose times that suit work or family commitments and use quieter, low-bandwidth ways to connect when required.
