More about me

Licensing: LMHC, NCC Years in Practice: 11 State: Florida

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with 11 years of clinical experience the last 3 of which have been with Better Help. I graduated with my Master’s of Science Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Stetson University on 2013. Since receiving my degree, I have worked with clients in their teens up to late adulthood. I have helped individual clients addressed a wide range of challenges, including but not limited to, depression, anxiety, anger management, career challenges, ADHD, Trauma, Domestic Violence, Addiction, Communication, Boundaries, Infidelity, grief, and loss. In addition to individual therapy, I have experience helping couples improve and work on relationship issues, communication and recover from infidelity. While I do not engage in couples counseling through Better Help, this experience can help me help individuals gain a greater understanding and perspective of what there partner may be experiencing or going through which can help create strategies to navigate relationship challenges. I have also helped families improve communication, address parenting problems and parent child relationships.

I take an eclectic approach to therapy drawing from various theoretical perspectives. This allows me to meet my clients where they are and work in collaboration with them to identify appropriate goals and objectives to work towards to allow them to overcome the challenges that may be holding them back from having their best life.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Overall

I feel happier, lighter after every session.

He has been a great help and an outside voice of reason. All-in-all this has been very helpful.

I really appreciate being paired with Jonathan , as a younger man I appreciate the experience and lessons from someone more seasoned than I am. Although we have only had our one session, I believe I stand to learn a lot from Jonathan.

Jonathan got me through one of the harder years of my life and has been. equally effective as he has been challenging 10/10

Jeff is easy to talk to, offers perspective instead of judgement, and has been helpful in giving practical ways of managing my anxious thoughts and depressing feelings. 10/10 would recommend!

Jonathan is a great listener and really has helped me view things from a different perspective. I’m very appreciative of all our chats and what I’ve taken away from them.

Jonathan is exactly what this old man needed! He listens, hears, and confirms what he’s hearing. Reasonable! Unlike many counselors!

Good dude, great for guys my age to talk to

Jonathan was always very professional and helpful. He helped me so much in my toughest moments. He’s great.

Jonathan has helped me. I'm looking forward to continuing our sessions

I wish everyone could have my therapist, Jonathan Stahl. He knows exactly how to handle each session. He has a great intuition as to what approach I need any given session. Can't recommend him enough!

He has become a huge part of my life. I joke that he is the best friend I pay for. He seriously understands my issues, helps me work on unpacking my garbage so to speak. Because of his help I've been able to forgive and move on. With his help I was able to rebuild a relationship with my father, whom I had not spoken to in close to 5 years. Im so grateful for his help, I'm not sure if I would still be here if not for his guidance. I recommend betterhelp and Jonathan whenever anyone asks me about therapy and who I talk to. I cannot say enough about him, he is awesome.

Gives great feedback and provides good opposite info to help with informed decisions.

A very caring, compassionate, and competent psychotherapist. Goes the extra mile to help his clients. He has helped me greatly in dealing with anxiety and trauma. He can help you too.

Every time I recommend better help I wish everyone could have my therapist. He has been very helpful!

Jonathan “Jeff” Stahl is incredible! I’d recommend him to my friends but then he wouldn’t have time for me

In a moment of darkness I pray Jeff is still who answers my call. I couldn’t have done it with anyone els

Jonathan is one of the most well-rounded, kind, and caring therapists I have ever worked with. He will work with you at your own pace and be a gentle and wise guide throughout your healing process.

Great provider

Jeff (Johnathan) has been great about knowing when to take a break and just BS a little (develop a rapport with me), and when to steer me back towards the topics of my ptsd. It makes it easier for me to absorb the work and not get emotionally fatigued. And, frankly, I like the dude. It’s been great so far.

Jonathan Stahl, "Jeff", is absolutely wonderful. I enjoy having him as my therapist, and I am thankful for his wisdom, kindness, and advice.

I accidentally picked the wrong answer to the first question, i thought i was picking completely agree.... I love Jonathan. I would recommend him to anyone. I feel he is helping me. I know with his help I will reach my goals and will achieve recovery. I look forward to my weekly appointments. He is amazing.

He’s awesome.

Jonathan is one of the most compassionate individuals I have ever known. More importantly he has perfected the art of when to speak and when to listen. Great change is coming in my life (for the positive) in a large part due to his help.

He’s a great therapist, so far I got to know him.

He is an asset to my life.

Jonathan is amazing and goes above and beyond as a therapist. He is very attentive and present and pays close attention to the detail of your session. He is very humble and seems to love what he does! Very passionate and would recommend him to others. Thank you for all you do Jonathan!

Jonathan really helped me identify some of my flawed thinking patterns and understanding separation of feelings and behavior.

I would recommend my therapist to everyone! At 53, this is the first time I find myself living in the moment rather than the past or the future.

Friendly and intelligent. Knowledgeable but not arrogant. Kind and easy to understand. Patient.

Great!

Jonathan is a good listener. He is honest and compassionate.

Working with Jeff changed my life. He understood me completely from day one, he understood my humor, he saw the shadow parts of me that I didn't even know existed. He held space for me in all of my loud, emotional, and too much parts. He grew to be a piece of stability in my changing world and I wouldn't be the woman I am today without him. If you're considering working with Jeff, I highly encourage you to end your search and start your transformation here.

I’m a former Law Enforcement Officer and I had basically given up on therapy after a few bad experiences with the department’s on staff counseling, and with their referrals. Fast forward a few years, I figured I would reach out and try to talk again. I came here to Betterhelp.com and was matched with Mr. Jonathan “Jeff” Stahl. Even from the first session I was extremely impressed with how willing he was to let me talk and figure out what type of platform I needed to feel comfortable. There was no sense of rush, no pushing, he wouldn’t interrupt needlessly. For the first time it truly felt like someone was really listening, and not waiting for their turn to speak. Even when I open up about the rough things I’ve seen in my former profession, Jeff always finds a personal experience that he can pull from to find common ground. It really makes me feel understood and not judged. I couldn’t be more thankful for this opportunity and for Jeff. Just knowing I have someone on my “team” like Jeff, makes a daily difference in my life.

Jeff is a surprising breath of fresh air. I have always been hesitant about therapy, and have tried in the past without feeling value from the experience. In a few sessions, I have benefited more from Jeff than ever expected. A great listener that can often cut through the noise. I am looking forward to continuing my sessions!

Jonathan has been a wonderful therapist. I would recommend him to anyone. I feel I am working towards my recovery and would not be here without his guidance

Great therapist

He is amazing at what he does. He really has helped me move forward positively. Thank you for everything.

Jonathan is fantastic and I am very grateful for his help with my mental health.

I only have been in therapy with Jonathan for a couple of weeks, but we already have a good therapeutic alliance, and he seems to truly care about my wellbeing.

I have been working with Jonathan off and on for a bit. I have PTSD and some associated anxiety along with a drinking problem. Jonathan is well equipped to handle anything I’ve thrown at him and whether it’s advice or just letting me talk, he knows when to talk and when to listen.

Long story short: he truly cares and is incredibly capable.

Jonathan has been a great help to me. I really like his approach which is mostly to let me talk and then connect it to something he went through or someone he knows went through. It makes me feel less alone and crazy. When I talk to him I feel better because I feel seen and understood.

Excellent at listening and giving insight on whatever I have to work out and is always available to respond quickly to messages and understands what I’m looking for out of counseling.

He listens. He is considerate. He is very professional.,

Johnathon(Jeff) is a rock solid dude who knows how to make you feel comfortable and always provides great insights and perspectives on anything I have going on. I was off the app for awhile but when I had the money I didn't hesitate to get back on cause I knew I had a great ear and mind that understands my struggles ready and waiting. He is also flexible with scheduling and has made adjustments to make sessions happen when I had scheduling conflicts. Grateful for the app and grateful I was paired with Jeff from the get-go.

He’s amazing he’s on time

Counselor Jonathan Stahl is the first therapist I've found, after years of searching, who truly takes time to listen, understand my issues & provide suggestions that are really helping me to grow & encouraging practical solutions. He is available, caring & insightful. I highly recommend him & am so thankful to have found him through BetterHelp.com

He’s been great!

Helpful and kind, I appreciated the tips he gave me and advice which helped me to feel better!

He is amazing and helping me with my problems

Nonjudgmental, receptive, compassionate insight

Jonathan Stahl has been very helpful to me and my situation. I recommend him wholeheartedly to anyone who needs a listening ear.

As my first experience in the therapy realm it couldn’t have gone better. I’m looking forward to each session, trying to learn how to better myself.

Jonathan Stahl is a great counselor. He listens to you, offers some insight and helps guide you on your path of self-awareness and self-reliance. I am very lucky to have him as my counselor.

Awesome

Dealing with my Dad’s cancer diagnosis and the seeming unraveling of my life with the many changes that came with that was one of the hardest things I’ve had to deal with. Jonathan (Jeff) Stahl was the first person assigned to me with better help and was a perfect fit from the beginning. I appreciated his honest perspective and his ability to really listen to me. He was a huge help in a critical time and I will forever be grateful for his insight, kindness, acceptance, honesty, sense of humor, and good attitude. He helped me tackle a lot of the things I’ve struggled with for a long time, be honest with myself, and find ways to change my thinking and act to become a happier me. I can’t thank him enough and would fully recommend him to anyone looking for a good counselor.

J. Stahl is a very attentive counselor and has been very effective in phrasing things in an understandable fashion. He has already helped me make connections to things I have never thought about regarding my emotions and it has only been a month. Very sweet and very smart guy.

Jonathan Stahl has been open with me about himself, allowing me to relate with him. I have a very difficult time talking with anyone, but he has made me feel safe in sharing with him. This is not common for me and has been extremely helpful, it has allowed me to talk about things I have never been able to talk about with anyone else. He has sent me messages checking up on me in between our meetings, I have never had a therapist or counselor that has ever done this. He seems to genuinely care about how I am doing. I would recommend him to anyone. I very happy I found betterhelp and with it, Johnathan.

Jonathan is a great step in the right direction. I look forward to speaking again.

I'm EXTREMELY happy with my counselor! We have developed a great relationship. I definitely recommend him and trust him.

I’m so thankful for him!

Not only a terrific listener, but fantastic at understanding your situation and providing great advice and offering new perspectives. If you got matched with Jonathan then count your blessings, you’re in good hands.

Very good counselor.

This service is awesome

I’m not an open feelings person but being in a space that is comfortable to me makes it easier

After only having one session so far with Jonathan, I found him very easy to connect with and talk to about my problems.
