Jake Roberts, LPC - Therapist in Oklahoma

About Jake

Jake Roberts uses a direct, practical approach to help people manage stress and life changes. He is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with nine years of clinical experience. Jake keeps sessions focused and straightforward so parents and individuals can get tools they can try right away.

He draws on client-centered methods to build a respectful, nonjudgmental space. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors.

Background and approach

Jake also offers Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) for trauma when appropriate. Typical concerns he addresses include anxiety, depression, substance use, grief, and trauma-related symptoms. He also works with issues like anger, self-esteem, intimacy concerns, and challenges tied to fatherhood and family problems.

Jake frames problems in plain language and focuses on concrete steps that can be practiced between sessions. His training includes a master’s degree in community counseling and targeted coursework in trauma-focused methods. As an Oklahoma-based LPC, he combines structured techniques with collaborative goal-setting.

Sessions often include skill practice, short experiments, and clear plans for next steps. People who reach out can expect a therapist who explains options in simple terms and helps choose methods that fit their needs. Jake emphasizes steady progress over quick fixes and adjusts techniques to match what is working.

How Jake’s approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding a person’s perspective and building a collaborative relationship. Online sessions using this method center on listening, reflecting concerns back, and helping clients decide what matters most to work on. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. In virtual sessions, CBT often includes simple worksheets, behavioral experiments, and homework that can be reviewed over video or chat. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method that helps process disturbing memories; when offered online it uses guided procedures adapted for remote work and careful preparation to make sure the client feels grounded.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Jake collaborates with each person to see which method fits their goals, comfort level, and needs. He will explain options in plain language and try short steps to find what helps best rather than insisting on a single path.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit sessions around school, work, or caregiving duties and allow follow-up between appointments. The variety of formats also helps maintain continuity when life is busy or schedules change, while keeping treatment focused on realistic, usable strategies.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

EMDR

A structured protocol used with distressing memories, pairing recall with guided attention tasks. Some therapists adapt it for video sessions; whether that fits is worth asking about directly.
