More about Jacob

  • 5 years' experience
  • Male
  • LPC

My purpose is to provide a path to hope, healing, and happiness.

I am licensed in Arizona with 5 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with sex addiction, relationship issues, betrayal trauma, infidelity, abuse, intimacy-related issues, and unhealthy communication styles. Other areas include self-esteem, motivation, and procrastination.

I create a safe, non-judgmental environment where you can truly feel heard, understood, and accepted. Counseling is a collaborative process where I offer knowledge, insights, and skills grounded in my training as a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist. Change doesn't come without discomfort. In accordance with this, I challenge my clients to embrace discomfort and offer opportunities to do so.

I will bring my expertise, knowledge, love, and compassion. You bring your vulnerability, determination, and curiosity to learn. Together, we can move you along the path to true happiness and healing.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
