Jonathan Townsend is a counsellor and writer who brings more than 40 years of real-world experience — lived across London, Auckland and Sydney — to his work. He built a career, raised a family, and navigated the transitions and turning points that shape a life before retraining as a therapist, and that lived experience informs both his counselling practice and his writing.

Jonathan holds a BSc (Hons) in Psychology from University College London and a Postgraduate Diploma in Counselling from ACAP, is an accredited member of the Australian Counselling Association (ACA), and has volunteered as a crisis counsellor with Lifeline. He works primarily with adults, with a particular focus on men's emotional wellbeing, life transitions and the pressures that often go unspoken. For Women Love Tech, he writes on mental health, wellbeing and the human side of our increasingly digital lives.
