About Jacob
LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) with 8 years of experience based in Michigan. Jacob Wilhelm helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, grief, low self-esteem, depression, LGBT concerns, trauma and abuse, intimacy issues, anger, and life changes. He also focuses on parenting and fatherhood issues, attachment challenges, guilt and shame, isolation, and men's issues.
Jacob uses methods drawn from Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy. He aims to create clear conversations about what is causing distress and what practical steps a person can try between sessions. Sessions tend to emphasize understanding relationship patterns, identifying unhelpful thoughts, and practicing new ways of responding.
Before moving practice to Michigan, Jacob earned an undergraduate degree from the University of Missouri and a graduate degree in Counseling Psychology from Stephens College in Columbia, Missouri. He has worked in both secular and faith-based settings and brings that varied experience into his clinical work.
In sessions Jacob often focuses on how early attachment shapes current relationships and on concrete skills to reduce panic and social anxiety. He combines talk-based reflection with mindfulness exercises and behavioral strategies when that fits the concern.
People who choose him will find a therapist who discusses goals openly, checks in on progress, and adjusts methods as needed. To set up a first meeting, follow the site steps to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.

How attachment work and CBT translate to remote sessions
This therapist regularly uses Attachment-Based Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in his work. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current connections and helps people recognize and change those patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like panic and social anxiety.He also draws on client-centered methods and mindfulness practices to slow down strong emotions and build practical coping skills. Choosing the right approach is collaborative; the therapist will discuss goals, try approaches, and adjust plans based on what works for the client and what feels manageable.
Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, since the profile does not list specific delivery methods. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also make it simpler to continue work during life transitions. The therapist will talk with each person about how to structure sessions so they suit that person’s schedule and goals.
