Professional statement

Jonah Mishaan is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Credentialed Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Counselor, holding a Master’s in Psychology.

Rather than relying on conventional models of information dissemination or behavior modification, Jonah's methodology centers on unlocking your inherent growth potential as an individual. He doesn't view his role as one of providing mere education or solutions; instead, he is dedicated to helping you gain a profound understanding of the intricate ways you've learned to relate to yourself, others, and the world around you.

Jonah's therapeutic expertise extends to individuals grappling with addiction, trauma, and young adults navigating the complex transitions of emerging adulthood. However, what truly sets him apart is his unwavering enthusiasm for forging authentic connections with the genuine humanity of every individual he has the privilege of working with, regardless of their background or condition.

Specializing in guiding clients through life transitions, addressing addiction and trauma, and offering support in psychedelic integration, Jonah empowers clients to create meaning and liberate themselves from negative patterns within a collaborative therapeutic relationship. His emphasis on nurturing creativity paves the way for enduring change, ultimately leading to a more enriched and fulfilled life for those who embark on this transformative journey with him.
