Jonathan Hines, LCMHC, LPC

Jonathan Hines is a licensed counselor who brings seven years of clinical experience to his practice in North Carolina. He holds the credential LCMHC, which means Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, and LPC, Licensed Professional Counselor. Jonathan focuses on practical help for stress and anxiety and related concerns.

He helps people dealing with addictions, low self-esteem, bipolar disorder, depression, and obsessive-compulsive tendencies. Sessions are conversational and straightforward. Jonathan starts by listening to what matters to each person and then works together to set realistic goals.

Jonathan uses approaches that focus on values, present-day thinking, and problem solving. He draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice their thoughts and choose values-based actions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot and shift unhelpful thinking patterns. Client-centered methods keep the person’s perspective central during planning and change.

People often come for help with relationships, coping with life changes, compassion fatigue, ADHD, or struggles like isolation, guilt, and hoarding. He also addresses codependency, communication problems, control issues, phobias, and trichotillomania when those concerns arise.

Jonathan aims for clear steps you can try between sessions. He helps build motivation, develop coping skills, and strengthen self-compassion. The work combines short-term problem solving with attention to long-term change.

How his approaches guide online work

Jonathan often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice their thoughts and decide what matters most to them. ACT focuses on values and taking action even when uncomfortable feelings are present, which can be useful for stress, anxiety, and motivation challenges.

He also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of thinking that keep problems going. CBT breaks concerns into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors so you can try small experiments and see what changes. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the session focused on the person's goals and lived experience while planning next steps.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jonathan collaborates with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together over time.

Please confirm current session options before booking, as specific online formats are not listed here. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can also adapt exercises and homework for use between sessions so changes continue outside appointment times.
