There’s power in understanding ourselves. But the journey to understanding is difficult. My work as a therapist confronts your lived experiences and, through an individualized therapeutic approach, models a path towards an enhanced sense of self.

For many people, medication is a helpful supplement to therapy.

Others find that my treatment methodologies, which deprioritize psychotropic medication, offer them more space to address their emotional stressors and increase stress recovery time.

You are more powerful than you know. I believe with a well-balanced and responsible approach to psychotherapy and possibly medication, clients may enhance their health and realize their full potential.

A landscape photo of Dr.Jake in his office. He sits patiently on a comfortable couch. A large shelf stands prominently out from the wall, each cubby host of a variety of books, thick and thin. Oddities and curiosities lay about the room on shelves and tables. The overall atmosphere of this space is friendly, relaxed, and a bit quirky.

A Different
Approach

Individualized treatment for unique individuals.

I am a relational and exploratory therapist first and foremost. Though I’m classically trained in medicine, nursing, and psychopharmacology (medication), those are small (yet important) parts of my work. My work is informed by medicine and by didactic, evidence-based modalities but I am not dictated by them. I have a wealth of personal lived experience to recognize that the evidence base is limited and does not — and maybe never will — fully elucidate the human experience.
‍
I take a “Yes, and…” approach to therapy that allows us to explore and continue to ask questions about “who and what you are…” without judgement. My services are informed by Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems, Gestalt, psychoanalytic and psychodynamic psychotherapy, and psychiatry.
‍
I’d like to reiterate that my methodology prioritizes self-discovery and stress management in the interest of alternative treatment. I am neither a savior nor a healer nor a provider of something that you don't already possess. I am more like a mirror reflecting that which has yet to be fully realized in yourself.
