Understand your patterns. Create lasting change.

01 — Welcome

Many of the struggles you face come from parts of yourself that are still waiting to be understood.

I'm Jacob. I'm a Licensed Associate Marriage and Family Therapist based in East Falls, Philadelphia. I work with adults across the full range — from quiet, persistent dissatisfaction to genuine crisis. We start wherever you are.

My approach is depth-oriented and psychoanalytic, which means we're interested in the whole picture — not just managing symptoms, but understanding where they came from. Before you can create lasting change, you have to develop an understanding of what's actually driving the patterns. That's what we build here.

My door is open to anyone navigating the kinds of struggles people bring into therapy — anxiety, depression, life transitions, faith shifts, relationships, identity, grief, the slow burn of feeling stuck.

I also have a particular focus on men's work. It's something I've trained in, lived through in my own life, and seen up close in my work with clients. For many men, therapy itself can be a hard space to step into — and harder still to find a therapist who actually gets it. So I built a practice where they could.

If you're a man — especially a father, a partner, or a high-achieving professional — and you've been quietly carrying something for a while, you'll find that the work here is calibrated for what you're actually dealing with.

If you're not a man, you're equally welcome here. The depth-oriented approach works the same way regardless.
