About Jonathan Barratt

Jonathan Barratt is a qualified integrative counsellor and a registered member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy), combining training from person-centered and cognitive behavioral approaches to shape his practice. He draws on more than 14 years of experience working within the NHS, where he developed a particular focus on addiction services and on supporting people living with addiction.

Jonathan emphasizes a respectful, kind, and non-judgmental therapeutic atmosphere that allows clients to explore thoughts and emotions at their own pace. He believes that open conversation with another person can support personal growth and healing, and he structures sessions to be goal-oriented when appropriate while remaining responsive to each individual’s needs.

In his work he uses solution-focused techniques alongside CBT tools and coping strategies to help clients identify practical steps and build skills for change. Jonathan aims to offer a calm, supportive space in which people can address a wide range of concerns, from stress, anxiety, and depression to relationship and addiction issues, with an emphasis on collaboration and client-led progress.
