Nurturing Authentic Living Through Holistic Psychotherapy

Greetings, I'm Jake Chames, a licensed master social worker (LMSW) and a proud graduate of the esteemed Wurzweiler School of Social Work. My professional journey in psychotherapy has been shaped by diverse experiences, including mentorship from a Hakomi and Somatic specialist, and currently, I am immersed in an intensive training in Reichian Therapy.

My foundational education at Wurzweiler equipped me with the skills and passion for exploring the intricate connections between the mind and body. Under the guidance of a seasoned Hakomi and Somatic specialist, I delved into the profound intersection of psychology and the body's wisdom, emphasizing holistic approaches to foster genuine healing.

Currently advancing my skills through Reichian Therapy training, I am dedicated to continuous learning, reflecting my belief in the dynamic nature of mental health practices and the importance of adapting to the unique needs of each individual.

Over the course of my career, I've had the privilege of working with clients of all ages, fostering connections that transcend generational boundaries. My approach centers around guiding clients to break through their internal armor, enabling them to authentically experience and express their emotions. Combining traditional psychotherapeutic techniques with mindfulness and body-focused interventions, I create a safe and supportive space for individuals to embark on their personal journey of self-discovery and transformation.

In my practice, I view myself as a fellow traveler on the path my clients wish to explore. I believe in the power of collaboration and mutual respect, working alongside individuals to uncover the depths of their true selves. Through our therapeutic partnership, I aim to facilitate a profound and lasting impact on their lives, supporting them as they navigate the complexities of their emotional landscape.

Join me, Jake Chames, on this journey toward authentic living, where the mind and body unite in harmony, paving the way for profound self-discovery and healing.
