About Jacob
I’m a therapist that focuses on techniques and strategies that work, and I see progress with my clients pretty quickly.
I’m licensed in Oklahoma with 14 years of experience as a therapist and over 17 years of experience in mental health. I have experience in helping clients with executive functioning (ADHD and autism), stress and anxiety, queer/lgbtq+ issues, Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID/multiple personalities), & coping with life changes.
I use many therapeutic models or perspectives, primarily focusing on how systemic and institutional barriers affect mental, emotional, and behavioral health and well-being. I’m queer-friendly. I strongly believe anyone and everyone can benefit from therapy. I do not use or believe in the “medical model” of mental health, so I do not attempt to “cure” “mental illness”, but recognize that mental health is complicated and “mental illness” is mostly a survival response.

- “They are just a really great therapist and I've been with many,.”
- “I tried out a few therapists before Jacob and no one has compared.<br /> <br /> He has been able to help me recover from an existential depression, heal from past traumas and helped me get to the best place in my life so far.<br /> <br /> I'm beyond grateful for his patience and knowledge. I've recommended him already to many of my friends already. His compassionate approach and taking the time to understand where I was and where I wanted to go was incredibly supportive and helpful<br /> <br /> If you're looking for help with trauma, anxieties, depression, or improving your core beliefs, this is the therapist for you. I bet he could help you with more things too but those were my biggest improvements in working with him”
