Jacob Emanuel, MFT, RP's style

Why Jacob Emanuel, MFT, RP chose to be in the helping profession

I was drawn to this work after noticing how many people move through life with a quiet sense of misalignment—lacking purpose and feeling powerless when faced with important decisions. Seeing that pattern time and again led me to this field. Supporting people in finding their footing and direction feels like what I’m meant to do.

Jacob Emanuel, MFT, RP's approach

In my practice, I work exclusively with men. My approach focuses on creating a grounded, supportive space where real change can happen. I understand the challenges many men face in expressing and making sense of their emotions—and I meet that struggle with genuine empathy.

Together, we take a collaborative approach to understand who you are, what matters to you, and where things feel stuck. That understanding becomes the foundation for doing the deeper work—bringing emotional awareness into your daily life, learning to express it in a way that feels authentic, and building a stronger sense of self and direction.

The goal is to notice the depth of the experience and find a way to engage with it in the present, making sense of what’s in front of you and finding clarity along the way.

Jacob Emanuel, MFT, RP's experience working with the Jewish community

I’ve worked with a wide range of people across different parts of the Jewish community—parents, yeshiva boys, fathers, and husbands. My experience extends both within and outside the frum world, which has helped me stay adaptable and open. I’ve learned how to connect with people whose lives and views may differ from my own, and that’s shaped a grounded, inclusive, and empathetic way of working.
