Book with JonathanAbout Jonathan
Jonathan De Oliveira is a BACP counsellor practising from Ealing, West London, and online. He offers short-term or ongoing work in English and Brazilian Portuguese. He aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can talk through difficult feelings and find clearer ways forward.
Jonathan uses an integrative, client-centred style that adapts to individual needs. Sessions move at a pace the client finds comfortable. He helps people notice patterns, name difficult emotions, and consider practical steps they can try between meetings.
Background and approach
His work covers a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy-related issues, grief, and trauma and abuse. He also supports people with matters linked to identity and diversity, such as LGBT concerns, multicultural issues, and experiences of prejudice and discrimination.
Jonathan brings training in Psychosynthesis Counselling and holds a COSRT Level 5 certificate in Psychosexual Therapy, along with coaching qualifications. He has three years of professional experience and has worked in teaching, mental health support, and complementary therapies in the UK and abroad.
He offers preparation and integration support around psychedelic experiences for harm reduction and wellbeing, while noting that psychedelic substances are illegal in the UK. Jonathan asks people not to contact him seeking facilitation of illegal psychedelic-assisted work. People considering sessions are invited to reflect on what they hope to achieve and to use the booking process to describe their needs and preferences.

How Jonathan adapts therapy online and in person
Jonathan draws on an integrative, client-centred approach that blends ideas from psychosynthesis counselling with psychosexual work and coaching. Psychosynthesis focuses on connecting different parts of a person so they can work together and find meaning; it can help with life purpose, identity, and making change. Psychosexual work attends to sexual health and intimacy concerns, offering practical conversation and strategies for people facing psychosexual challenges or relationship and intimacy-related issues.Finding the right way of working is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels manageable, then try methods that suit those aims. Together the client and therapist reflect on what helps and adjust the approach over time.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing appointments from different locations. It also permits flexible scheduling that can suit work or family commitments. Because the biography lists both in-person work in Ealing and online sessions, clients should confirm the exact session formats available before booking. The emphasis is on practical convenience and continuity so people can keep progressing between meetings.
