About Jonathan
Jonathan De Oliveira is a BACP counsellor working from Ealing, West London and online. He offers a calm, flexible space for people feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward. Sessions are offered in English and Portuguese to match different needs and cultural backgrounds.
He uses an integrative, client-centred way of working. That means he draws on different approaches and tailors each session to the person in front of him. He focuses on simple, practical steps alongside gentle reflection so clients can notice what helps and what gets in the way.
Jonathan often supports people with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression, and those recovering from trauma and abuse. He also works with intimacy-related concerns, relationship difficulties, codependency, grief, and questions around identity and sexuality. He invites people to look at the connection between body and mind and at how past experiences shape present reactions.
His background includes training in Psychosynthesis Counselling and additional certificates in Psychosexual Therapy (COSRT Level 5) and coaching. He has three years of experience and has worked in teaching, mental health support and complementary therapies, both in the UK and overseas.

Approaches and what online therapy can offer
Jonathan uses Psychosynthesis Counselling alongside psychosexual and coaching-informed methods. Psychosynthesis looks at personal growth by linking life challenges to a larger sense of purpose and helps people find new ways to respond to difficult feelings. Psychosexual-informed work focuses on sexual health and intimacy matters, offering practical ways to address desire, boundaries and communication around sex and relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jonathan will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they will decide which methods to try and how to pace the work. That collaborative planning helps shape what sessions focus on over time.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking as formats are not listed here. Online work can make therapy easier to fit into everyday life, reducing travel and allowing sessions from different locations. It can also suit shorter check-ins, regular weekly work, or longer sessions when a deeper conversation is needed. Many people find that remote sessions help them maintain continuity during life changes and make regular contact with a therapist more practical.
