About Jonathan Wildman
Jonathan Wildman is a UK-based counsellor registered with the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. He combines formal qualifications with a research background, holding a Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling, an MA (Level 7) in Counselling and Psychotherapy Practice, and a PhD in Social Science that explored regulation within the counselling and psychotherapy field.
He offers a warm, relational, and non-judgemental space where people can share and examine the difficulties they are facing. His practice aims to be down-to-earth and human, emphasising genuine connection as the foundation for change. While bringing professional training and research-informed thinking to sessions, he seeks to meet people where they are and to explore the barriers that can make connection and change difficult.
Jonathan works with a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, anger, low self-esteem, relationship and family difficulties, addictions, grief, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, ADHD, and issues related to identity and LGBT experiences. He also attends to additional areas such as attachment and abandonment, autism and Asperger syndrome, body image, caregiver stress, commitment and communication problems, dissociation, domestic violence, eating and food-related issues, and feelings of emptiness.
His practice draws on client-centered principles, existential perspectives, and trauma-focused approaches to tailor therapy to each person. He also integrates creative methods such as therapeutic writing and art when they suit a client’s needs and preferences. Jonathan brings experience from social support settings and higher education roles, and he aims to work with compassion, open-mindedness, and sometimes a gentle humour to ease the seriousness of counselling.

Clients can choose the way of meeting that fits their life best - whether that is a video call, a phone session, a live chat, or ongoing text-based messaging.
