Jonah Mishaan, Counselor, LMHC, CASAC, MA

As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Credentialed Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Counselor with a Master’s in Psychology, my professional journey has led me to a deeply rewarding path. Each day, I have the privilege of working with individuals who are navigating the intricate web of addiction, trauma, and the challenges of emerging adulthood.

 

But what truly ignites my passion is the opportunity to uncover the core of human experience, to connect with the essence of every person I encounter, regardless of their background or struggles. My purpose is to guide individuals on their journey towards profound transformation and self-discovery.

 

In a world often marked by disconnection, both from others and ourselves, I use the therapeutic relationship as a vessel to explore how we relate to our surroundings and to ourselves. It's within these connections that we find the roots of change, growth, and healing.

​

In my therapeutic practice, I strive to transcend the mere surface-level solutions that are often sought. If you're seeking an experience that delves deeper into your psyche and emotions, I'm here to offer that. I recognize that every person's struggles and aspirations are unique and deeply personal, and I tailor my approach accordingly.

​

My focus revolves around several key pillars:

​

Cultivating Self-Awareness: By delving into your thoughts, emotions, and actions, we unearth your distinct strengths and challenges. This self-awareness forms the bedrock of meaningful change.

 

Enhancing Relationships: I place immense importance on authentic connections with others. Together, we work to build enriching relationships with family, friends, and colleagues, fostering a sense of fulfillment and connection.

​

Overcoming Anxiety and Fear: We confront existential concerns and embrace uncertainty head-on. Through this process, you develop the tools to manage anxiety and fear, ultimately leading to a life that's more confident and fulfilling.

​

Discovering Personal Meaning: Together, we delve into the deeper purpose and direction of your life. This exploration nourishes a sense of meaning and fulfillment in even the most mundane experiences.

​

My approach rests on the belief in the unique growth potential of each individual. Unlike models that rely solely on education or behavior modification, I focus on understanding the intricate ways you've developed your relationships with yourself, others, and the world around you. Through this understanding, we create a space to cultivate new perspectives. It's within this nurturing space that freedom takes root—the freedom to live the life you genuinely aspire to lead.

​

In a world that often overlooks the complexities of human experience, I am here to provide a guiding light—a companion in your journey of self-discovery and transformation. Together, we'll navigate the depths of your psyche, unveiling the layers of your identity, and empowering you to chart a course towards a more fulfilling, authentic life.
