About Brae
Brae Jacobson is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Texas with 10 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, bipolar and mood disorders, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting challenges, self-esteem, career issues, and coping with life changes.
Brae uses straightforward conversation and practical techniques to help people notice patterns that make life harder. She listens, offers perspective, and suggests different ways of responding when old habits stop working. Sessions include concrete steps to reduce intense emotions and to improve day-to-day functioning.
She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test alternatives. She also uses client-centered methods to keep the work focused on what matters to the client. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused techniques are used when people want short-term change or clearer next steps.
Brae helps with problems that often come with caregiving, workplace stress, money worries, and family-of-origin issues. She also addresses codependency, communication problems, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, and midlife concerns. The approach is practical and goal-oriented, aimed at improving coping and decision making.
Sessions are aimed at making small, workable changes that fit into a busy life. Brae asks about current routines and stressors, and then builds simple strategies to try between meetings. She guides clients through setting manageable goals and tracking progress over time.
How her approaches translate to online work
Brae often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to break down how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. CBT sessions focus on noticing specific thinking patterns and practicing alternatives through real-life experiments, which can be discussed and reviewed between meetings. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep sessions focused on the client's priorities, offering a listening stance that supports clearer problem solving and goal setting.Finding the best approach is collaborative. Brae will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped in the past. Together they decide whether to emphasize CBT tasks, motivational interviewing to increase readiness for change, or brief solution-focused steps to get immediate traction.

Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it possible to review worksheets, track homework, and follow progress between meetings so therapy fits into everyday life.
