Great to meet you!

Hi, I'm Jake. I'm a Licensed Counselor with about three years of experience in the mental health field. I've had the opportunity to work with both inpatient and outpatient clients, and I've supported people dealing with a wide range of challenges like anxiety, depression, psychosis, and major life changes.

My approach to therapy

I use an integrative approach that draws from cognitive therapies including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)-informed practices. I also incorporate a compassionate lens rooted in Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), which emphasizes cultivating a sense of safety and calm within the body.

I view therapy as a collaborative relationship—you are the expert on your own experience, and I am here to walk alongside you on your journey.

What you can expect from me

During our time together, my goal is to support you in reaching what matters most to you in therapy. I work to create a warm, safe space where you can feel supported and explore growth at your own pace. I’m here to help you build practical tools and strategies for navigating difficult emotions, situations, and any unwanted experiences that come your way.
