His clinical approach is integrative and collaborative - drawing from a variety of theoretical methods that include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Relational Therapy, Client-Centered Counseling, Positive Psychology, Play Therapy, Mindfulness, Narrative Therapy, and others. This integrative approach give him the best possible chance to reach his goal of always being helpful, respectful, and kind to clients while developing and carrying out appropriate counseling goals that allow them become the best versions of themselves.
Jake earned his Bachelor of Arts at the University of Northern Colorado in both psychology and German foreign language & literature. He credits this experience as instrumental to developing his appreciation of diversity and laying the foundation for his current professional career. After his undergraduate studies, Jake spent time building literal foundations with his family business, Seidel Concrete. Interestingly, Jake feels that this work in the concrete business still informs his current practice.

After graduate school he worked in a community mental health center and non-profit organization. He is also an Eagle Scout with the Boy Scouts of America, and continues his commitment to community service by being an active disaster mental health volunteer with the American Red Cross.
