Introduction

Hi, I’m Jonah - a Licensed Professional Counselor and the founder of Sunflower Wellness. I specialize in working with young adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, and life transitions. I have extensive experience supporting college students and LGBTQIA+ clients, and I am passionate about creating an affirming space where authenticity and growth can flourish. My approach is evidence-based and person-centered, blending practical skills to manage tough moments with space for deeper exploration and long-term growth. I believe therapy should feel safe, collaborative, and empowering - a place where you can show up fully as yourself and work toward living with greater clarity and balance. In addition to individual therapy, I provide professional trainings on LGBTQIA+ mental health and queer-affirming counseling best practices for schools, universities, community organizations, counseling agencies, and more. These workshops often focus on supporting LGBTQIA+ students and young adults, strengthening crisis response, and creating truly affirming environments where people feel seen and supported. What brings me the most meaning as a therapist is walking alongside people as they discover their own strength. Like a sunflower that turns toward the light, I see therapy as a way of helping you find your direction and continue growing, one petal at a time.
