Professional statement

Jonathan Labman is a Liberation Guide who is also a Licensed Professional Counselor in eastern Pennsylvania practicing for 24 years. His clientele is an eclectic group of people who are interested in guidance on a path of Spiritual Liberation. He also helps people leaving organized religions, doctrines, dogmas, teacher-centric spiritual paths, or cults, to find their own spiritual Heart and to become Liberated without all of that.

In the course of guiding you into Liberation, he will work with you on all aspects of human life: physical, mental, emotional, psychological and spiritual. In other words, Jonathan will help you to learn how to be an effective human being who is both "spiritually" Liberated and effectively human.

Clients are from all walks of life, ages 21 to 90. For those of you interested interested in spiritual awakening and enlightenment, Jonathan can guide you there.

Jonathan knows how to work with your pain and suffering with deep spiritual and psychological understanding. He applies 54 years of personal and professional exploration to create very interactive sessions for you. He will 'mirror' you to yourself and reduce what seem like 'complex issues' to the very simple habit patterns (of thought, action, feeling, spirituality, and creativity) that are actually in your way, so they can be dissolved and you can discover your inherent Liberation.

You can meet Jonathan in his consulting office in Holicong, Pennsylvania (near Doylestown) and/or by Zoom videoconference technology.


Message to clients

After 24 years of service as a trauma treatment specialist, addictions specialist, and spiritual mentor, I now serve you as a guide to spiritual Liberation and an integrated human life.

We will do a lot of dialog in sessions and I will frequently give you homework to integrate what you're learning into your actual life. Effective work towards Liberation includes you gaining insights AND putting them into practice. Most importantly, I look at what's happened to you, not what's wrong with you, and how that's preventing you from recognizing your already existing Liberation. Together we can uncover the Liberation already at the Core of who you are and then help you create simplicity, peace, love, harmony, and clarity in your life. All of those qualities are also inherent to your nature as a human being.

Therapy Groups

Monthly Meditation with Q&A about Your Spiritual Path

This is a group for those who want to explore their spirituality. We hold a brief meditation for 30-minutes (instruction if needed) and then open to a discussion of issues that arise for those working towards spiritual awakening.

QUARTERLY ONE-DAY RETREATS

This is an opportunity to spend a day in retreat, without the cost of traveling far away to a retreat center and paying the overnight costs associated with that. We will spend the day doing silent meditations of various lengths with time for Q&A.


Client testimonials

"Jonathan was very kind, warm, and professional. I usually am very shy and uncomfortable with first calls and don’t always know what to say, but he lead the call with patience and care to the questions asked and the answers I gave. I definitely would recommend working with him! :)"
