You’re here because you want something to change.

Perhaps you feel anxious or depressed.

Maybe you’ve been fighting with your spouse, family, or colleagues.

Whatever your problems, they are unique to you.

My name is Jon Sedarati, a UK-registered therapist with over 8 years’ experience.

My job is not to give you a label or a lecture on how you “should” live your life.

Instead, I’m here to help you help yourself make a change.

For you, that might mean finding a loving spouse, overcoming an addiction, or becoming more confident.

Thanks to their effort and commitment, I have helped clients from over 60 countries achieve these things and more.

I won’t pretend it’s always easy; big changes require dedication and commitment.

But if you’re willing to try, I’m happy to help get you where you want to go.

Jon Sedarati, MSc, MBACP

Bio

Originally from England, Jon earned a Master of Science (MSc) degree in psychology (accredited by the British Psychological Society) before receiving his Post-Graduate Certificate in Marriage and Family Therapy (accredited by the International Family Therapy Association’s International Accreditation Commission for Systemic Therapy Education) from the Sino-American Family Therapy Institute (SAFTI) in Shanghai, China. He has worked with individuals, couples, and families, from over 60 countries and is currently a psychological counselor at Community Center Shanghai.

Jon has published articles in the Journal of Critical Psychology, Counselling and Psychotherapy and is a Mad in America contributor. He has also spoken at the International Family Therapy Association’s World Therapy Congress. Jon’s areas of interest include (but are not limited to) relationship issues, sex, anxiety, addiction, and depression.

Jon hopes clients come to view him, not as a healer or advice-giver, but as a guide whose primary function is to listen. That said, he believes meaningful changes require action, and do not simply result from talking about one’s problems.

In their words

“I have worked with several therapists, and I don’t know if I have ever made as much real progress working with any other therapists.”

Alex

“Jon is my inaugural therapist, and I consider myself exceptionally fortunate to have encountered an individual of his caliber in the field. Throughout our therapeutic journey, he skillfully addressed areas that I had not initially recognized as requiring attention. In the relatively brief span of three months, I have undergone a profound personal transformation, achieving the very self that I aspired to become when I first sought therapy. I have extended my complete trust to Jon, and he has consistently exceeded my expectations. His interactions have transcended the mere fulfillment of professional duties, manifesting as a sincere and genuine commitment to my well-being.”

Ella

“Jon always made me feel heard and was extremely reassuring and calm. I am indebted to him for the way he helped me feel empowered with regards to my mental health.”
