About Jonathan
Jonathan De Oliveira offers a straightforward, calm space for people seeking help with stress, anxiety, relationships and related issues. He works with each person at a comfortable pace and in clear language. Sessions are available in English and Portuguese and can be arranged online or in person from his West London base.
Jonathan uses an integrative, client-centred style that blends different therapeutic ideas to suit the person in front of him.
Background and approach
He listens for what matters most, then adapts the session to focus on practical steps and personal insight. He supports people dealing with loss, grief, trauma and issues around intimacy and identity. His training includes Psychosynthesis Counselling, which helps people reconnect with inner resources and view difficulties as chances to change.
He also holds a COSRT Level 5 certificate in Psychosexual Therapy and a coaching qualification, and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Jonathan has worked in teaching, mental health support and complementary therapies in the UK and overseas. He has experience with diversity, multicultural concerns and situations involving discrimination or prejudice.
He also offers preparation and integration support related to psychedelic experiences, provided only for harm reduction and not as endorsement of illegal use. People often come to him for help with body-mind connection, attachment and abandonment issues, communication problems, kink and alternative sex culture, and career or life transitions.
He aims to make sessions clear and manageable so people can take steady steps forward.

How Jonathan works online
He also offers psychosexual support informed by a COSRT Level 5 certificate in Psychosexual Therapy. That work looks at sexual wellbeing, intimacy challenges and relationship communication through careful dialogue and skill-building rather than labels or pressure.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to identify what feels most useful. That means trying things, checking how they land, and adjusting methods to match goals and comfort levels.
For online therapy, please confirm the specific session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow follow-up conversations from wherever you are. Some sessions can be shorter check-ins when time is limited, while others can use longer appointments for deeper work. Registered and accredited professionals, including therapists, commonly tailor session length and pacing to fit daily life and therapeutic aims.
