Jake Dastrup, AMFT – Associate Marriage and Family Therapist

Jake has always been fascinated by the mind and the intricacies of human relationships. Deeply empathetic by nature, he is passionate about understanding people’s challenges and walking alongside them on their healing journey. Jake specializes in treating sexual addiction and unwanted pornography use, OCD and anxiety, and trauma/PTSD. He is also currently expanding his expertise in working with ADHD. Jake has experience working with individuals of all ages and tailors his approach to each unique person.

Jake approaches therapy with warmth, compassion, and a strengths-based lens. His integrative approach includes mindfulness, guided imagery, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Inner Child/Parts work, and nervous system regulation techniques. He is committed to treating clients holistically—respecting where they are and what they are ready and willing to work on. He is also completing his 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training (YTT) and enjoys weaving aspects of yoga and breathwork into sessions when clients are open to it.

Outside the therapy room, Jake is a passionate musician who loves to sing and play the guitar, piano, and drums. A former elite and collegiate gymnast, he now turns to yoga and meditation for movement and grounding. He loves sunshine and finds inspiration and peace in the outdoors, always grateful for nature’s variety and beauty.
