Introduction: Hi, I'm Mark Jacobson, LMFT, MCAP and I'm excited to now be on Thumbtack! I named my therapy practice Brief Counseling Center because I believe that lasting, positive change doesn't have to take years of therapy sessions to achieve. I'll help you focus on solutions that can potentially transform your relationship in as few sessions as necessary. When we do couple's counseling, I'll give you and your spouse/partner tools and techniques you can begin using right away, making it possible for you to be: * Less angry and reactive * More effective, positive parents * More satisfied with your relationship * Able to communicate better and argue less * Happier and more peaceful at home with your family * Able to get beyond infidelity * Able to find lasting solutions to other problems I also do one-on-one counseling with those who want to find ways to better manage stress, anxiety, anger, grief or depression, or who struggle with addiction or other challenges that are keeping them stuck. I love being trained as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist because I believe that helping people is about viewing their entire context, and not blaming one person, judging or taking sides.

I usually would not make such a personal experience so public but it has been a real eye opener "working" with Mark. Ive tried successfully and unsuccessfully meeting with many therapist over the years. For those that were successful I have learned coping and meditiation skills, but they never inturn resulted into everyday life skills. My experiences that were with therapist that were unsuccessful, were exactly that, being fed clinical theory rather then realistic practices (obviously that did not work). Ultimately I have found a few therapist in the past that I have learned from, but never connected with. I know I sound like I have been through 40 different therapist (really its been 4 outside of mark over 10 years), but for once I am not only learning life skills, I am connecting with someone on a professional level and can relate to regardless in our difference in age. About me: I am a addict. I am a succesful business man with a company with 25 employees. I am in recovery. I am married, 29 years old and have a wife whom Ive been married to over the last 2 years and been together for 8 years as of June 2016. I am sharing this because I want others to experience what I have and that is hope, confidence and a connection that has resulted into life altering decisions (and finally those decisions that have a positive impact on my life). I share this recomendation with any male or female (my wife has meet with Mark too) whom is 45 years or under (does not need to be a addict) and wants to learn more about themselves and how to be a better person while putting morw emphasizes on your strengths. 5 Stars to Mr. Mark. Thank you Mr. Mark your making a difference not only in my life but those around me. I am a better person because of you while staying clean one day at a time.

The first session went well. I will continue to see him and pray that it will help me a great deal as we have more sessions. But overall he is very personable and easy to speak to.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Each session lasts 50 minutes and I typically see clients for about 10 sessions, although each situation is different. I charge the same hourly rate for each session and I don't take insurance at this time.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We might talk briefly on the phone so I can find out your preliminary needs, or just meet in person in my office so I can begin learning about you and your relationship and we'll start formulating a strategy for getting you to your goals right away.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a Master of Science degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Nova Southeastern University, which I received in 2010. I am a Florida Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. And I am a Master's Certified Addiction Professional.
