Therapeutic approach:
Jacob is attachment-based, emotionally-focused, and trauma-informed, with specialized training in Marriage and Family Therapy. He works primarily from Emotionally Focused Therapy and the Gottman Method, and is also trained in EMDR and Accelerated Resolution Therapy. His style is holistic, integrative, and eclectic — tailored to the system you live in, with the goal of helping you create and rediscover safety in your life and relationships.
From the cradle to the grave, we are wired for connection. The absence of emotional safety can leave us stuck in negative cycles that are exhaustingly repetitive, as well as creating personal feelings of inadequacy, anger, resentment, and many other feelings of disconnection with the people we seek closeness with. My plan for you is simple: I will help you create and rediscover safety in your life/relationship. I consider myself to be attachment-based, emotionally-focused, and trauma-informed. Therapy is a place for transformation: both doing and undoing. Let's collaborate and break this cycle of pain together!
With my specialized training in Marriage and Family Therapy, you can expect a holistic, integrative approach to treatment that is tailored to you. My passion is to have you embrace the current system you live in and break through the cycles that are keeping you stuck. You are not sick, broken, or doomed: you are stuck. I believe that everyone is capable of healing and thriving when nurtured in the right environment.
I currently have clinical training in Emotionally Focused Therapy, Gottman Method Couples Therapy (Levels 1 and 2), EMDR, and Accelerated Resolution Therapy. Although these are the primary models of therapy I use to treat many issues, I consider myself to be eclectic and holistic. I'm passionate about working with couples, families, and individuals/adolescents.
In my free time, I enjoy watching new TV shows, traveling, reading, exercising, and spending quality time with friends and family. If you are interested in working with me or have any questions, please reach out for a free consultation: we think differently when we are alone. Your courage is seen with me!
