About Jake

Jake Roberts is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who centers his work on evidence-informed methods to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and related life challenges. He integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with client-centered techniques and trauma-focused methods to tailor care to each person's situation.

Background and approach

Jake draws on nine years of professional experience to guide clients through problems such as relationship difficulties, grief, addiction concerns, intimacy-related issues, and compassion fatigue.

Jake brings attention to both immediate coping and longer-term patterns, addressing concerns that range from anger, self-esteem, and coping with life changes to more specific areas like abandonment, attachment issues, dissociation, and family-of-origin dynamics. He also works with issues such as fatherhood challenges, communication problems, control issues, and forgiveness.

Located in Oklahoma, Jake offers services in English and frames treatment around collaborative, practical strategies that emphasize the client’s goals and preferences.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

Jake often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; CBT is practical and can be applied to anxiety, depression, stress, and many daily life challenges. He also incorporates EMDR when appropriate, a trauma-focused method that supports processing distressing memories and symptoms associated with past events. Both approaches are adapted to work in remote sessions, focusing on skills, pacing, and client readiness.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Jake approaches that choice collaboratively. He discusses goals and preferences with each person and blends techniques to match what the client needs, adjusting methods as progress and circumstances evolve.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and access care from different locations. Licensed professionals can use these formats to deliver skill-building, trauma-informed interventions and solution-focused work tailored to each client's situation.
