About Jacob
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who works with teens adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, identity concerns, and major life transitions. I take a collaborative, down-to-earth approach to therapy and believe that meaningful change happens when people feel genuinely understood-not managed or rushed. My work is influenced by Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and existential approaches to therapy. In practice, that means we focus less on “fixing” you and more on understanding what you’re carrying, what matters to you, and how to move forward in a way that aligns with your values. I believe suffering deserves a thoughtful response-not judgment-and that therapy should make room for both honesty and compassion. I work especially well with clients who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves, including those who have tried therapy before and felt it didn’t quite fit. I also have experience supporting individuals dealing with chronic stress, relationship struggles, substance use recovery, and the emotional impact of difficult life experiences. In sessions, you can expect me to be engaged, transparent, and respectful of your pace. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all model of therapy. My goal is to create a space where you can speak freely, feel safe being yourself, and work toward change that actually feels livable. Reaching out for support takes courage. If you’re looking for a therapist who will meet you as a human being first and help you make sense of what you’re going through, I’d be honored to work with you. Read more Show less
