About Jake
Jake Roberts is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) licensed in Oklahoma with nine years of clinical experience. He works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, and questions about life purpose. He also focuses on relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting issues, and challenges that often follow major life changes.
Jake uses straightforward talk therapy and evidence-informed methods to address practical problems. He draws on Client-Centered work to listen and reflect what matters most to each person. He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try new behavior on a small scale.
In trauma work he includes EMDR to process traumatic memories alongside trauma-focused techniques. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy are used when people want to set short-term goals or find momentum for change. Sessions typically mix talking, skill practice, and simple goal-setting.
Clients can expect a focus on concrete steps rather than abstract explanations. Jake explains options clearly and checks in about what is working. He helps people sort through confusion after job changes, relationship shifts, health events, or other life transitions.
He trained at Oklahoma State University, completing a Master’s in Community Counseling. Jake is a Muscogee (Creek) tribal member and has substantial experience with people from varied backgrounds. He offers sessions in English and does not work with international clients.
How his approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. Online sessions use the same open listening to help clarify values and goals, and to decide what matters most when someone feels stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is about spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes. Online sessions can include reviewing thought records, setting brief at-home experiments, and checking progress together. EMDR is a trauma-focused method that helps process distressing memories; when appropriate EMDR techniques are discussed and adapted for an online setting.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jake collaborates with each person to choose which methods to try first, adjusts based on how things go, and revisits the plan as needs and goals evolve. This is a shared process where client feedback guides what comes next.
The practical benefit of online sessions is that they can fit into daily life more easily. Many people find it simpler to schedule short blocks around work or family time, or to have sessions without traveling. Confirm the current session formats before booking so you know which options are offered for scheduling and access. Online work emphasizes concrete skill practice, goal-setting, and regular check-ins to keep progress visible and manageable.
