About Brae
Brae Jacobson, LPC, is licensed in Texas and has ten years of clinical experience. She helps people address stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar mood concerns, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting challenges, and career or life-change issues. She uses straightforward talk and practical strategies drawn from approaches she practices.
Jacobson emphasizes clear, collaborative work over long lectures. Sessions focus on identifying what is not working and trying small, manageable changes. She uses cognitive behavioral ideas to spot unhelpful thoughts and solution-focused steps to test new behaviors. Motivational interviewing helps people find reasons to change when they feel stuck.
She also draws from client-centered ways of working, listening for what matters most to each person and shaping sessions around their goals. For trauma and abuse concerns she integrates trauma-focused methods that focus on safety and gradual processing. The goal is to reduce overwhelming symptoms and restore everyday functioning.
People come for a mix of issues such as caregiver stress, codependency, communication problems, divorce and separation, family of origin concerns, work problems, money worries, and midlife or young adult transitions. Jacobson names common targets like self-esteem, coping skills, and managing co-morbid conditions so practical problems can be addressed alongside mood and anxiety.
Her style is solution-oriented and goal focused. New clients complete a matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

Approaches used in remote sessions
Client-centered therapy centers the person's goals and choices, with the clinician listening and reflecting so clients set the agenda and pace. It helps when someone needs to clarify priorities and make practical decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It uses simple experiments and homework to test new ways of thinking and acting, which can reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. Motivational Interviewing helps when motivation is low or change feels daunting. It uses focused conversation to elicit a person’s own reasons for change and to build small plans that feel doable. Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and adjust methods as needed. This is a collaborative process that aims to match techniques to what the client wants to achieve. Confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking. Practical benefits of remote sessions include easier fitting of appointments into a workday, shorter check-ins when needed, and options for sessions that do not require being on camera. These arrangements can make it simpler to maintain regular care while managing everyday responsibilities.03
