Getting to know Jacob Hiykel
I am mainly a humanist therapist who believes in the importance of working with clients to achieve their goals through the therapeutic relationship. Life has its challenges, but with the right support, it can be the most amazing adventure. I earned my Master's in Counseling Psychology from California State University, Stanislaus. I am a husband, father, twin brother, and a person who appreciates nature, animals, and having fun no matter what life throws at you.

Jacob goes above and beyond my expectations when it comes to therapy. I feel he really understands what I am trying to communicate and offers different insights to help me process my emotions and experiences. He offers many helpful tools to help me during our time apart ranging from books, meditations, and optional homework based on my interests. He really does go the extra mile when it comes to helping me.

Highly recommend Jacob. Mental healthcare sessions should be as long as he provides. Cannot recommend Jacob enough. Sending all my friends and colleagues to him. Working with him has changed my life and mental health state. Also cannot recommend PATH enough as well for mental health care providers. Stop messing with this app and use PATH. Jacob us beyond qualified and I truly have not had a better therapist EVER. Some people on here may pay for reviews but Jacob isn’t paying me a dime and frankly doesn’t need to because FINALLY I have been able to receive mental healthCARE and not just used as another vessel to empty out financially for a caregivers personal gain.
