JONITA JACOBS, LMHC,QS
Licensed Mental Health Counselor

Starting with the first session, we begin to lay the foundation of our working relationship as we discuss your strengths, triumphs, but also opportunities for growth and change. We will explore your background, including cultural influences, and what has made you, you. That first step of coming in can be difficult and uncomfortable, but the path that it leads to can be an amazing journey of self-discovery!

My name is Jonita Jacobs, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with a degree in Clinical Psychology-counseling specialization. I have over 20 years of experience in the mental health field. My experience is in many areas, but my focus has been on helping adolescents,  adults, and couples who are struggling with the impact of anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and abuse. My other area of focus has been substance use disorders as I am also a Master’s level Certified Addiction Professional. My style is individualized, suited to meet my clients where they are, and appreciate their intersections of diversity. I am person-centered, while empowering clients to explore their thoughts as it impacts their feelings and actions to provide practical coping skills. I utilize techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and mindfulness.
