Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
You have questions. They are in your heart; and therefore, weigh heavily on your heart. They may appear to be unanswerable. Perhaps they are. They may arise in your thoughts or they may not. These questions come in feelings, images, sensations, dreams, and most importantly longings.
We very often attempt to satisfy these longings through insufficient means. Our longings go unmet as we do the same things, try the same strategies, without success. You might be asking, “how do I change these patterns?”
As a systems therapist I explore with you the vast territory of life in fine detail so you may better recognize the impacts of experience on you and realize your impacts on life. We collaborate on ways to change and I support your practice of developing new approaches to achieve what your heart truly longs for.
Therapy is quite like a quest to find the ways you can be the best ‘you.’ It’s a guided quest for navigating challenges, often catastrophes, and finding a way forward towards your heart’s calling.
I draw from many approaches to integration and revealing wholeness. Because I have found that integrating one’s whole being requires approaching life’s challenges from many perspectives and trying different methods to facilitate change. I have studied transpersonal and systems approaches to understanding the causes and conditions which arise in our human experience. I have trained in somatic, emotional, and cognitive therapies; which often, integrates the way we sense, feel, and think about our experience. Much of my approach is informed by applied ecopsychology, eco-therapy, and climate psychology. I am particularly interested in working with individual experiencing strong emotional reactions to the changes we are experiencing in the ecological systems and society at this time. I support individuals who are experiencing eco-rage, eco-despair, eco anxiety, all arising from eco-empathy and ultimately returning to a deep care and concern for Earth. The entire world around us; and therefore we as individuals, are going through tremendous changes. Integrating this experience and finding compassion, resilience, and purposeful action is my passion. I will seek to assist you in finding your personal way towards your own clarity and purpose.

Jonathan Kabat is a licensed marriage and family therapist practicing in California with ten years of clinical experience. He holds a California LMFT license (license number 129217) and works with people facing trauma and abuse, stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and family conflicts, grief, intimacy and parenting concerns, anger and self-esteem struggles, career difficulties, depression, and the challenges of life transitions and compassion fatigue.
He approaches therapy from a systems perspective, exploring the many parts of a person’s life to help them recognize how experience shapes their responses and how their actions influence the world around them. Jonathan collaborates with clients to identify patterns that are no longer serving them and supports the development and practice of new strategies to pursue what their heart truly longs for.
Therapy with Jonathan is framed as a guided quest to discover how to become the most authentic and resilient version of oneself. He integrates multiple therapeutic traditions because, in his view, becoming whole often requires attending to the body, emotions, and thoughts together. He has training in somatic, emotional, and cognitive therapies and draws on transpersonal and systems approaches to illuminate causes and conditions in human experience.
Much of Jonathan’s work is informed by applied ecopsychology, eco-therapy, and climate psychology. He is particularly interested in supporting individuals who are reacting strongly to ecological and societal changes—including experiences described as eco-rage, eco-despair, and eco-anxiety that arise from deep empathy for the Earth. He aims to help people integrate those responses and move toward compassion, resilience, and purposeful action while assisting each person in finding greater clarity and personal direction.
Many people wonder whether therapy delivered online can truly help. For a range of common concerns – including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and life transitions – online therapy has been shown to be comparable to traditional in-person care.
One major advantage is the flexibility it offers. Clients can choose the format that suits them best – video sessions, phone conversations, live chat, or in-app messaging – which makes it easier to fit support into a busy schedule.
All participating professionals are licensed, and if someone decides they need a different therapeutic fit, it is possible to switch to another therapist. This accessibility and adaptability can make therapy more attainable while maintaining the same kinds of clinical support people seek in person.
