About Jonathan
Jonathan Hines is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in North Carolina with seven years of experience. He works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, mood struggles such as bipolar and depression, and challenges like low self-esteem and ADHD. Jonathan frames clients as experts in their own stories and focuses on practical steps forward.
He uses straightforward conversation to identify what a person wants to change. Sessions focus on small, achievable actions as well as the thoughts and habits that keep people stuck. Jonathan draws on cognitive behavioral tools to shift unhelpful thinking, and acceptance-based ideas to notice difficult feelings without being driven by them.
Motivational interviewing is part of his approach when someone feels stuck or unsure about change. Solution-focused techniques help create short-term goals and track progress so shifts feel real and measurable. He also uses client-centered methods that prioritize the person’s own values and choices in planning work together.
People who struggle with people-pleasing, trouble saying no, or losing themselves in relationships often find the focus is on boundaries and clearer communication. For those dealing with substance issues, the work balances motivation with practical steps to reduce harm and regain control.
Sessions are practical and direct. Jonathan helps people name patterns, practice new responses, and build momentum between meetings.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate action. It focuses on values and committed behavior change, which can help with anxiety, low mood, and patterns like people-pleasing. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, behaviors, and feelings, then teaches skills to test and change unhelpful thinking. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and obsessive patterns. Motivational Interviewing supports people who are unsure about change by exploring ambivalence and uncovering personal reasons to move forward.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Jonathan approaches this collaboratively, asking about goals, past attempts, and what feels realistic. He adjusts techniques based on what a person prefers and what produces small, measurable steps toward their goals.

Licensed professionals can use these formats to practice active skill-building, homework between sessions, and clear goal tracking to help clients make steady progress.
