About

Counselor

Jake Eyler

Jake is a licensed professional counselor who draws on nearly 20 years of experience supporting individuals and families through life’s most challenging seasons. In addition to his counseling experience, Jake spent a decade in pastoral care and another seven years as a hospital chaplain in a level-1 trauma center. While there, he had a specialized focus in trauma, oncology, neurology, & NICU. These roles shaped his ability to support clients facing grief, loss, medical crises, and end-of-life concerns with compassion and clarity.

Jake primarily uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) with individuals, minors, and groups. Jake is also trained in Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), incorporating family systems and neuroscience to support couples.

Outside of work, Jake enjoys life with his wife and kids, being outdoors, playing music, and staying active—personally and professionally—in the pursuit of growth.
