Brae Jacobson , LPC

Brae Jacobson is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas who brings ten years of clinical experience to her work with adults and families. She is warm and empathetic, offering a nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where difficult emotions and strained relationships can be explored with care and respect. In plain terms, LPC means Licensed Professional Counselor, a credential that indicates formal training and state licensure to provide counseling services.

Brae combines insight, perspective, and gentle redirection to help people reduce emotional struggle and improve the quality of their lives and relationships. When habitual coping strategies no longer work, she collaborates with clients to develop new tools for managing relationship stress, persistent anxiety, depressive symptoms, bipolar mood challenges, and other mood or life-transition concerns. Her practice also addresses trauma and abuse, grief, parenting and family issues, self-esteem, career and workplace challenges, and caregiver stress.

Using a blend of evidence-informed approaches, Brae helps clients clarify goals, strengthen problem solving, and restore a sense of agency and hope. She approaches each case with attention to individual needs, aiming to create practical strategies that fit daily life and long-term growth.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Brae integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and motivational interviewing into her online practice. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening deeply and reflecting the client's experience to build trust and self-understanding - it is helpful for relationship strain, self-esteem, and emotional processing. CBT is goal-oriented and practical, helping clients identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replace them with skills that reduce anxiety, depression, and mood-related challenges. Motivational interviewing is a collaborative, strengths-based approach that supports people who are ambivalent about change by exploring values and strengthening motivation for practical steps forward.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Brae collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques as progress and circumstances evolve. This collaborative process helps create a personalized plan that feels useful and attainable.

Online therapy with Brae is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access care from home, during work breaks, or while managing family responsibilities, and they allow therapists and licensed professionals to maintain continuity of support across life transitions.
