About Jonathon
Jonathon Yassanye, LISW, LCSW, helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and related struggles. He focuses on building practical skills for everyday life and listens to what matters most to each person. Sessions emphasize clear steps and thoughtful conversation to ease overwhelming feelings and improve daily functioning.
He uses a mix of familiar approaches to tailor care. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centered work, and mindfulness techniques appear often in his practice. He also draws on psychodynamic and existential ideas when past patterns or life meaning come up.
Jonathon trained at Case Western Reserve University and has eight years of clinical experience in adult mental health. Early work included community clinic settings where he practiced CBT and anger management, alongside brief psychodynamic interventions. He later worked with older adults and caregivers and completed education on Alzheimer’s disease and related disorders.
That experience included providing support to caregivers and learning how to communicate with people across stages of cognitive change. He has used standardized measures such as the Geriatric Depression Scale and the PHQ-9 as part of assessment and tracking when appropriate.
Therapy with him is collaborative. He helps people set goals, learns what has or hasn’t worked before, and builds a plan that fits their life. He accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English.
