Transform & Renew Mental Health Services

Jonathan is a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Mental Health Service Provider designation (LPC-MHSP) in the state of Tennessee.  He is also recognized as a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC) by the National Board of Certified Counselors (NBCC).  He has postgraduate degrees in both Theology and Counseling and has 17 years of experience in the field of mental health.

He is a Christian counselor who enjoys working with people of all walks of life and faiths, including individuals who consider themselves agnostics and atheists.  He says, "What I love most about Christian counseling is that I get to work together with people on not just their emotional, cognitive and relational struggles, but their spiritual struggles as well."

Jonathan has primarily worked with adolescents and adults and has experience conducting individual, premarital, marital, family, and group counseling for a wide-range of issues.  As a Certified Sexual Addiction Therapist (CSAT), per International Institute for Trauma and Addiction Professionals (IITAP) requirements, one of his primary areas of expertise is helping individuals, couples and families work through issues pertaining to pornography and sexual addiction.

Several years ago, Jonathan developed a ministry called Right Time Right Talk, which teaches and equips parents, caregivers, and leaders to help children achieve healthy sexual development and avoid the many pitfalls ignorance about such issues brings.

Jonathan and his lovely wife, Leah, have been married for 20 years and have been blessed with the task of raising two boys...ahem...young men.

He enjoys leading men's ministry activities, taking down trees, building things, and spending time outdoors with friends, his family, and their three dogs.
