In our opinion Dr. Jacobs is AAA rated. We have been struggling with communication and emotional issues for years. We both had been trying to tell each other what things we are doing that hurt or offend each other with NO avail. But when you have to say these things in front of a third party it makes you become more accountable. Dr. Jacobs gave us helpful tools to relate to each other in a more positive way. By getting counseling we both learned so much about each other and it made us aware of how hurtful we were being towards one another. Dr. Jacobs has a special way of making us both feel right and justified with our thoughts. We are the HAPPIEST we have ever been and we have learned to not say things that can hurt and have become more respectful of each other. We now look at each other as a partner and best friend. We never thought we could be this HAPPY and we owe it all to Dr. Jacobs!! Thank YOU Dr. Jacobs :)
Dr.Jacobs helped me get through a very difficult time in my life! After the loss of both of my parents I became very withdrawn and depressed, which was not like me. I had been to several other therapist and never felt fulfilled. Dr Jacobs was the only therapist that I felt was truly genuine and professional! She is a very kind person and really cares about her patients. I highly recommend Dr. Jacobs!
One year ago last month my wonderful family experienced a traumatic loss of a young man (my nephew) who took his own life in a tragic way. Needless to say, my family and I struggled to deal with such a sad loss. I in particular began to struggle with the relationship with my nephews mother. I began losing sleep, feeling lost and needed help and guidance. I fortunately found Dr. Naomi Jacobs and began therapy. I call Dr. Jacobs a Godsend because she has walked me through the single most difficult year of my life. She allowed me to share small details of how & why my relationship soured with my sister. Her patience and recollection of each family member (and i have several), always amazes me knowing she has a large practice. I am sleeping at night now, I still have more work to do with Dr. Jacobs going forward but i want to extend my gratitude for her healing my heart over the past year.
In 2017 I began treatment with Dr. Jacobs. I was an active alcoholic. I was dealing with 3 chronic illnesses, one of which causes me constant pain, exacerbated by the alcohol. With the pain came opiate medication and a corresponding new addiction. I was unable to work in the field I went to college and graduate school for. I had stopped doing all the the things that brought me joy. I spent probably 95% of my life in my room.
Naomi greeted me without a hint of judgement. At the time, I couldn't even imagine being happy. I had made the professional work I did my identity, and that was gone. Today I'm engaged in my life again. I do fun stuff. I like myself a little more And I haven't had drink in 4 years. I wouldn't be here without Naomi. She treated me with kindness and acceptance. I've always felt supported and heard. I am better off and still improving. I credit Dr. Jacobs's guidance as a major role in my sobriety and my continuing hope for a better future.
I would like to start off with how hesitate I was to even start talking to a professional about some of the issues I was going through. I didn't think they could be much more help than the resources I already had. Dr. Jacobs proved me wrong. Talking with her and getting her insight helped me immensely. I appreciated getting a perspective from someone outside my intimate circle. She really helped me figure some things out and I will forever be grateful. If you're looking for assistance in figuring out where you need more help in to be better and do better, look no further! Keep in mind that you will need to do all the work, but Dr. Jacobs can help guide you on the right direction.
My daughter came to see Dr. Jacobs after being diagnosed with a couple auto immune disorders that made sitting down to a meal very difficult. Dr. Jacobs knew exactly how to encourage her to face her fears and believe in her ability to overcome her challenges little by little. After less than a year of therapy, my daughter is another person. I'm so grateful to have connected with Dr. Jacobs and I know she'll always be available to support my daughter should she face any hiccups down the road.
I have been talking with Dr. Naomi for over 2 years now and she has completely changed my life. I trust her, she is professional, kind, intelligent, and knows how to handle even the most difficult situations with grace and compassion. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a good doctor to talk to that will change your life if you are willing to put in the time and be consistent. Thank you Dr. Naomi.
I have been seeing her regularly for about half a year now and feel like every time I talk to her, my problems feel less and less weighing. If you struggle with any type of depression/anxiety/phobia/mental illness, I'm sure she will be able to help you.
I have made more progress than I ever could have imagined over the last few months while working with Dr. Jacobs. I came to her willing to give counseling one last try after having no previous luck with multiple physicians. I didn't know where to begin when it came to solving issues and healing traumas but week after week we chipped away. I'm amazed at how much lighter things feel. I truly have never seen the world so clear. She is professional, compassionate, and was able to assist me with a variety of issues. I'd give my highest recommendation to anyone seeking help, she has made all the difference.
Dr. Jacobs is an amazing psychologist. She is very caring, a great listener but also is not afraid to tell me if I'm in the wrong which is one of the things I love most. I look forward to our weekly sessions and I don't think I would be able to get through this crazy life without her.
Naomi Jacobs, Ph.D., is an excellent therapist. She has helped me through many difficult family-related issues. She is extremely personable, approachable, and supportive which makes sharing problems with her easier, and more comfortable.
I value my time spent with Dr. Jacobs and thank her for helping me regain self-confidence, as well as helping me to utilize new strategies and coping skills, as I attempt to solve and face difficulties in various relationship situations.
Dr. Jacobs has been an excellent counselor for me. She is a very good listener and she gives excellent guidance and advice. I am amazed how she can remember everything I have told her from past meetings. I enjoy my sessions with Dr. Jacobs, she is very easy to talk to and she's funny. She's a very understanding and compassionate person. She really cares about what you're going through and she genuinely wants to help you. She has been helping me with depression and anxiety issues, and I can say that I am much better in both areas. She has helped me to find a purpose in my life. My self-esteem and self-confidence are so much better now for having seen Dr. Jacobs. I would highly recommend Dr. Jacobs.
After visiting two different therapists through referrals, I found Dr Naomi Jacobs. From the first visit I knew Dr Jacobs was a good fit for me. Coping with complicated family dynamics and the death of my father was too much for me to sort out emotionally. I felt I lost my sense of safety and worrying excessively, trouble sleeping, becoming withdrawn and anxious. Dr Jacobs has helped me understand that some of what I was experiencing was normal. Through counseling she has given me the tools to begin to work through my grief and generalized anxiety. Dr Jacobs has helped me establish personal boundaries, and for me was a good place to start, in doing so has made a tremendous difference in my life. Patient in her approach yet direct she has helped me gain back my sense of control and calm my anxious thinking. Dr Jacobs is a wonderful therapist, easy to talk to and an amazing listener. I would highly recommend Dr Jacobs.
Dr. Naomi Jacobs has changed my life. She is so kind, compassionate ,knowledgeable ,and professional. I always feel like I'm going to see my good friend. She is non-Judge mental and an excellent listener. She has helped me with all of my childhood trauma including suppressed memories. She's help me to establish boundaries for safety reasons, to assert myself, and reclaim my self-worth and confidence. I am happy and have peace for the first time in my life. My eating disorders have significantly improved. I have lost 30 pounds, and talking to Dr. Jacobs and listening to her advice has worked miracles in my life. I can't express enough my gratitude for her. I will recommend her to Everyone. I have found my life long doctor.
Dr.Jacobs is an excellent listener. She's one of those rare therapists that actually remember previous conversations and interactions. It's very refreshing to have a therapist so engaged in conversation. I've had therapists that sit behind the desk and vigorously take notes or are staring at the clock. Dr.Jacobs is far from that. She is kind and very professional. She will help you work through situations and has a great attitude. I would highly recommend her!
I am so grateful to be working with Dr. Jacobs. I have worked with a few mental health professionals over the years, and she is simply the best. She is the best listener. That sounds so simplistic when I say it, but it isn't. She hears what I am saying in a deeply profound way, and I know this because she reflects my words and ideas back to me. And, she does it without dispensing a whole lot of advice. I feel like she really knows me and it's safe to be me. I have made a lot of progress in a short period of time. THANKS DR. JACOBS!!
Dr. Jacobs has been instrumental in helping me work through panic disorder, depression, and an abusive past. With her professional guidance and keen intuition, she has kindly lead me through what was unthinkable in my life. Truly supportive and free from judgement, I feel safe to open up to her, and confident that with continued work I'll continue to mature relationally and mentally. Panic attacks used to be a near daily occurance for me, but now I'm in control of my anxiety (and my future!) due to her excellent help. I feel human again, and at peace. She's absolutely wonderful.
Everyone goes through terrible moments in their life and sometimes they stick with us for longer and harder than we like. It wasn't too long ago then I realized these moments for me equated to more than just a blip on the radar. They were indicative of trauma that would stick with me for much longer than I would've thought possible. It got to the point where I needed to see someone and I needed help or there wouldn't have been anything left to help. Finding Dr. Jacobs was truly a miracle. My relationships with my family and friends are better than ever before, my health has improved because I'm happier and I Mabel to sleep for longer, and I feel more confident that I will be able to handle whatever moments the future holds for me. If you feel lost or alone, or you're worried that your problems will pull your friends and family down right along with you, or even if you just feel as if you've tried everything and there's nothing left for you... Call Dr. Jacobs. Schedule a session and come in with an open heart and willingness to heal and you will benefit just as much as I have. Dr. Jacobs save my life. She is more than just an excellent therapist, she's a good human being and you can trust her.
I came to Dr. Jacobs after leaving a difficult relationship and feeling like I didn't know who I was anymore. She guided me through the challenges of the breakup, helped me see my patterns of behavior that kept leading me into unhealthy relationships, and really helped me gain enough confidence to feel good about myself and make positive choices. Each week, I left our session feeling lighter and more hopeful. I would highly recommend Dr. Jacobs as a therapist!
I would highly recommend Dr. Naomi Jacobs. My experience during sessions has always been a positive one, and has always led to great amounts of progress that were achieved throughout sessions. Dr. Naomi Jacobs has been of great help throughout all of the progress that has been made. The atmosphere in which the sessions took place in was very positive and healing. Also, the office was the perfect setting for therapy sessions. Definitely 5/5 stars for the rating!
Dr. Jacobs is an excellent psychologist. She is supportive and honest. Her direct approach facilitated my resolution of many aspects in my life. The growth I have experience through our sessions has truly changed my life. I would highly recommend her to anyone. Thank you Dr. Jacobs for being the special person who are and blessing so many individuals with your talent and the gift of healing.
I have been seeing Dr. Jacobs for several months, as I deal with a major change in my life. I had tried two other therapists, but they didn't "get it". Dr. Jacobs has been open minded about this sensitive issue. This has been a stressful time and Dr. Jacobs has continuously had positive, encouraging view points and practical advice on how to heal, assess next steps and proactively move forward. My sadness and anxiety have lessened and my outlook has definitely improved.
Dr. Jacobs is quickly helping me deal with personal and professional challenges I've been trying to overcome. She's a great listener and always offers meaningful guidance. I look forward to my appointments with her each week and always leave her office feeling hopeful. I would recommend Dr. Jacobs to anyone who is seeking help. It's been a Great Experience for me!
Since last spring my daughter has been meeting with Ms. Jacobs every week. I can see a difference in attitude and mood every single week after I pick her up from the session. Ms. Jacobs has a way of connecting with my daughter, and I venture to say I would think teenagers in general.
We feel very lucky to have found Dr. Jacobs for our teenager. Dr. Jacobs has a calming presence and listens attentively, both to what is said and unsaid. She provides good, concrete options for our teenager to consider. Our teenager feels that Dr. Jacobs listens to her and provides her with good coping options. We have been both surprised and pleased that Dr. Jacobs allows us to call outside of our regularly scheduled appointments, and she even provided a session over the phone during a time of crisis. We would highly recommend Dr. Jacobs.
She is great! My first day I entered her office I was a wreck. I though to myself there's no way she will be able to help me. I was wrong! She was great all the way. She is very understanding and she is willing to work around your busy schedule. I was always looking forward to our next sessions because of how excited I was to see her. All I have to say is that she is great ! I am very happy in my life right now because she helped achieve that. Thank you!
Dr. Jacobs is a fantastic therpist. I walked into my first session with a real belief that I was damaged, and was facing the possibility I would need medication and a lot of work to get back on track. After only a few sessions I was feeling lighter, more clear headed, and after our a few months, all my depression symptoms were gone. I honestly never expected talking to somone could work so well. Not only do her methods work, I feel I have a tool set to keep me on track. I have a new appreciation for therapy, and her skills esspecially. She's very easy to talk to, and very kind and underdtanding. I would highly recommend her.
I have been seeing Dr. Jacobs for several months now, dealing with issues that precipitated addiction to alcohol that included grief, medical, relationship and stressful life circumstances. She has taught me constructive ways to cope with these issues, as well as helped me to better my self esteem and to truly start enjoying life again. She has a kind and caring way about her, as well as being professional, nonjudgmental, and able to get me back on track in our sessions. The deep depression that I was in was something I could not get out of myself and I am truly grateful that I choose Dr. Jacobs based on the reviews I read about her. I highly recommend her.
Dr Jacobs has been very supportive and helpful while our child went through a variety of issues. She is professional, courteous and eager to learn as much as she can about anything she isn't already an expert in. We are glad we started seeing her!
Thank you Dr. Naomi Jacobs! My life has changed with your guidance and positive intervention. I've had a difficult challenge in my life when I experienced verbal and mental abuse from others. The abuse became so habitual to the point that it became normality for me. Dr. Naomi Jacobs helped me open my eyes and realized this is not normal and led me to positive solutions. I am no longer in these situations. However, if they arise I am well prepared!! Thank you Dr. Jacobs!!!
I was going through a bad break up and she helped me not only get through the tough times, but she made me realize how strong and independent of a woman I really am! She has given me courage, strength, and filled my life with positivity!
Since I heard Dr. Jacobs voice on the phone when I called to schedule my initial appointment I felt relaxed and calm. I have never been to therapy before and I suffer from Anxiety and mild OCD. I love going to see Dr. Jacobs because she lets me "empty all of my files". I get to purge all of my crazy thoughts and she organizes them into a tiny package that makes sense and when I leave there I feel like I can breath better and that I'm not carrying around a heavy weight on my shoulders. She has taught me how to deal with irritating anxiety symptoms and how to get inside of my head and calm myself down. I recommend her to everyone I know and I'm very thankful that our paths have crossed. I will be a patient with Dr. Jacobs indefinitely.
Dr. Jacobs is an outstanding professional! Following psychiatric recommendation, a friend kindly referred me to her. My issues were not unique...empty nesting homemaker struggling with the next phase in life. Depression, anxiety, loss of purpose, lack of confidence all made me feel worthless in an otherwise idyllic life. Her kind and attentive manner of listening, and her sensitive and compassionate counsel over time have brought me to a good place of inner peace. Sometimes personal understanding and gentle motivation is what is needed to face difficult times. Thank you Dr. Jacobs!
I have been seeing/working with Naomi since January 2012. I came to Naomi to help me deal with a heartbreaking/devastating divorce after 36 yrs. of marriage. The counseling time has been invaluable to me in my recovery and learning new things about myself and my own decisions, choices. Naomi has always been extremely understanding, a good listener, kind and yet inquisitive to get me to probe deeper into my thoughts and feelings. I very much appreciate her honesty and objective perspective. She offers me a new way to think about things troubling me. Although I have come a long way and healed significantly, I feel I still need this support and time to share thoughts, feelings that I can't share with others (they are tired of hearing about it!).
I have been suffering from escalating chronic pain since 1985. I had the great fortune to find Dr. Jacobs in 2010. She has provided me with tools and guidance that help me cope with my severe pain. I would definitely recommend Dr. Jacobs' services to anyone, but especially to those suffering with severe chronic pain and/or PTSD.
Over the last several years I have had many health problems, not to mention family difficulty. With Naomi's help she has change the way I do and think about life. I was a A personally and when you are handicap that doesn't work, Naomi helped me take life slower and easier. I truly do believe without her guidance I would be in, pardon the expression, the loony-bin. I plan to continue to see Naomi as long as she can put up with me.
Last year, after realizing that I was repeating some life patterns that I'd rather not continue, I decided it was time to go back to therapy after a hiatus of over a decade. I was frankly dreading the experience, given that hashing over your old business with a therapist can feel a bit like a vivisection, but Dr. Jacobs provided a welcoming, friendly atmosphere in which to do constructive work. She's supportive and nonjudgmental, and asks questions that guide you to your own conclusions. I'm not sure that anyone ever looks forward to their therapy sessions, or that good therapy can ever be entirely painless, but she makes the process as comfortable as possible given the work that needs to be done, and I'm happy to report that my dread was entirely unwarranted. Calling Dr. Jacobs' office was easily the best decision for my mental health I could have made last year. If you're having problems, it might be your best decision as well.
I have been a patient of Dr. Jacobs for over two years. My sessions are weekly. When I began my therapy I had just divorced my husband of nearly forty years during which I had been subjected to both emotional and physical abuse. The result of the therapy has been better insight, greater understanding of why I made the bad choices in my life and a far greater understanding of how to improve my relationships with my family. Overall I am very appreciative of the time and ability of Dr. Jacobs in helping me develop a more meaningful life. She in an excellent listener and a very compassionate therapist.
Dr Jacobs is a wonderful and caring therapist. Working together we have resolved many issues that were affecting all aspects of my life. Dr. Jacobs will help you find a better way of coping and will help you explore the possibilities that will make your life better.
Meeting with Dr. Jacobs is a validating experience. She listens well, and I always walk away with a golden nugget to hang onto. She is calm and realistic. She gives insight into circumstances I have had trouble seeing clearly. She always helps me! She has an incredible memory. I realize she documents her notes after I leave, but she remembers things I don't remember saying. She has a knack for putting the puzzle pieces together for me. I have to say this relationship didn't happen immediately but has built over the past 6 months. She has truly helped me and I value her!
