Jonathan McIntosh, MA, LPC
Specializes In:
I’m a licensed psychotherapist based in Evanston, Illinois, with a focus on working with adolescents, couples, depression, anxiety, individuals navigating the complexities of bipolar mood disorder and schizophrenia. My lived experience allows me to provide an approach grounded in empathy, collaboration, and a deep respect for each person’s unique story and strengths.
I specialize in helping teens and young adults build emotional resilience, improve communication, and navigate life transitions. In my work with couples, I support partners in reconnecting, resolving conflict, and fostering deeper intimacy and trust. I also have extensive experience working with individuals offering structured, compassionate care that integrates both clinical insight and real-world strategies for stability and growth.
As someone committed to justice, and multicultural understanding, I strive to create an inclusive and affirming space for people of all identities and backgrounds. I bring a culturally responsive lens to my practice, recognizing the impact of systemic and historical factors on mental health and relationships.
Whether you’re seeking support for yourself, your relationship, or your teen, I provide a safe, nonjudgmental environment where healing, insight, and meaningful change begin. When I’m not in sessions, I enjoy going to concerts, writing, and being a good roommate for my cats.
