Getting to know Mihal Jacobson
I am a licensed psychotherapist dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with greater clarity, resilience, and self-compassion. My work centers on supporting adults who are experiencing anxiety, depression, identity exploration, professional growth transitions, relationship difficulties, and challenging family dynamics. I also specialize in working with clients healing from complex trauma and long-standing relational wounds.
I understand that seeking therapy can feel vulnerable. My goal is to create a space that feels grounded, collaborative, and nonjudgmental—where you can safely explore both the parts of yourself that feel stuck and the parts that are ready for growth. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, weighed down by depression, questioning your direction, or struggling in important relationships, we will work together to better understand patterns, build practical tools, and foster lasting change.
For clients navigating complex trauma, our work may include gently unpacking early relational experiences, understanding attachment patterns, and building nervous system regulation skills. I approach trauma work with care and pacing, recognizing that healing is not about reliving pain but about restoring safety, agency, and integration.
My approach integrates evidence-based practices with insight-oriented and relational therapy. I tailor treatment to each individual, balancing skill-building with deeper exploration. I believe therapy is most effective when it honors both your lived experience and your capacity for growth.
If you are seeking a therapist who will meet you with warmth, curiosity, and clinical depth, I welcome the opportunity to connect. Together, we can clarify what feels stuck and move toward a more grounded, empowered version of your life.

Mihal is amazing. She’s a great listener and really cared to help you in offering advice and guidance. She comfortably makes you uncomfortable in order to challenge yourself throughout the sessions. She makes each and every session worth it, each and every time I relieve so much stress. It’s all thanks to her!

What I really appreciate most about working with Mihal is her ability to fully understand me in sincere and non judgmental way. Starting therapy was difficult for me and she really helped me with that process.

Mihal and I have a great relationship. She has helped me grow tremendously and I could not have overcome some serious stuff without her. I am very grateful for her help.

I have been Ms. Jacobson patient for over a year now. I think she is very understanding to getting to root of what is bothering me if I'm having a bad week. She also always finds ways to help redirect me into finding a soultion or even taking more time figure out an issue I might have. She has a great beside manner and stays in contact with me if we ever have to reschedule. Overall I enjoy having her as therapist and would recommend to her to another person.

Mihal Jacobson is a seasoned therapist who treats her patients as individuals and NOT by their diagnosis. She referred me to a clinic that would provide the best treatment for me. She was compassionate and I could feel her genuine desire to help me find the best treatment possible. She understood I needed more intensive treatment and was a real professional to share that she did not feel it was safe for me to work with her, without having access to a Psychiatrist. I am saddened that she couldn't be my therapist. As a Therspist, she's a keeper.
