About Jacob
Jacob "Jake" Willard is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Oklahoma who helps people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship concerns. He aims to create a calm, patient space where people can talk through painful experiences and figure out what they need next. Jake focuses on attachment issues and patterns that affect intimacy and trust.
He also works with people facing trauma and abuse, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and struggles with self-esteem or isolation.
Background and approach
Conversations are direct but paced to match what a person can handle in the moment. Jake draws from psychodynamic and client-centered ideas to look at the full picture of a person's life. That means bringing attention to recurring relationship patterns and the feelings behind them.
He pays close attention to how current problems connect to past experiences and how those patterns show up now. In sessions he emphasizes the therapeutic relationship as a place to try out new ways of relating. He listens for themes like abandonment, codependency, control issues, and dissociation, and helps people make sense of those patterns.
The work is collaborative and grounded in everyday choices rather than jargon. Starting therapy can feel hard, and Jake aims to make the first steps straightforward. He offers several online formats so people can choose what fits their schedule and comfort level.

Online support
Attachment and Psychodynamic Work Online
Jake uses attachment-based ideas to notice how early relationship patterns show up in current life. This approach looks at how trust, closeness, and fear of abandonment affect choices and feelings, which can help with intimacy problems, codependency, and repeating relationship patterns.He also draws on psychodynamic and client-centered methods to pay attention to recurring themes and the therapeutic relationship itself. Psychodynamic work helps people trace patterns back to earlier experiences, while client-centered work emphasizes being heard and respected in the moment. Together these approaches aim to make sense of difficult feelings and support clearer choices moving forward.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Jake works collaboratively to decide what fits a person's goals and comfort, adjusting methods as needed rather than prescribing a fixed path.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video is useful for a fuller face-to-face feel, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be handy for brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing contact between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to choose the format that helps someone engage best.
