Dr. Jacobs has been studying the way people think, act, ideas of sex, and basic human behavior throughout her career. She has always been a natural with dealing with depression and anxiety, but she has had a great deal of clients who began seeing her related to sexuality and gender. She has a strong love for this work and feels this community is under served and lacks the appropriate number of resources. She has made it a core area of therapy. She is always educating herself to be in the know and the best therapist she can be. The field of sex and relationships has become her passion.<\/p>\n

She also wrote her dissertation on dual diagnosis dealing with trauma and personality disorder. It has been used by clinicians to guide them when trying to navigate clients with similar issues. PTSD, depression, and anxiety are always issues she works with. She has also made a guide for the stages of love or obsession for clients to relate to.
\nShe works with various organizations to learn, as well as share new information.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Education and Training” _builder_version=”4.23.1″ text_font=”Josefin Sans|700|||||||” text_text_color=”gcid-2dc0b2a4-2bf4-4046-a5fa-f22908597d5e” text_font_size=”30px” text_line_height=”1.2em” header_3_font=”Lato||||||||” header_3_font_size=”36″ custom_margin=”||20px||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”||20px||false|false” custom_margin_phone=”||20px||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|desktop” custom_padding=”35px||||false|false” text_font_size_tablet=”28px” text_font_size_phone=”24px” text_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-2dc0b2a4-2bf4-4046-a5fa-f22908597d5e%22:%91%22text_text_color%22%93}”]Education and Training[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text module_class=”font400″ _builder_version=”4.23.1″ text_font=”Josefin Sans||||||||” text_text_color=”gcid-719827c1-623b-4d04-b1e1-c1d8108b2f65″ text_font_size=”18px” ul_line_height=”1.6em” header_3_font=”Lato||||||||” header_3_font_size=”36″ custom_margin=”||15px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-719827c1-623b-4d04-b1e1-c1d8108b2f65%22:%91%22text_text_color%22%93}”]<\/p>\n
