I worked with Dr. Small for close to three years. He did help me in some ways but part of mybtrauma was sexual and he just made things worse and didn't understand that aspect in regard to my religion. I also find he works with threats in order to get clients to be compliant with him. He is an okay therapist obviously better for some more than for others but for me I just attached to him and didn't realize towards the end he was more detrimental to my recovery than helping me.

Dr. Small worked with me for 2 years, after I was referred to him by my psychiatrist as a 'treatment resistant pt.' I resented the hell out of that label, and thought he would treat me as a 'hostile witness,' a pt that fights the treatment. Instead, what I got was a lot of challenging but also a lot of respect. He started with an evaluation, without judgment, but did not pussyfoot around the severity of my problems. He set up a structured twice weekly treatment with me, told me my problem could destroy my life, but also had hope that I could get healthy if I commit to treatment. I fought him for a year, because I don't trust easily, but then 'surrendered' to the work, let myself be a person who has serious problems, and worked through them, because I was ready and I trusted him. I am now living a 'life worth living', and i will always be in debt to him.

Dr. Small (Jacob) is a great therapist and a genuine person. I saw him in 2008 for some problems with depression, some bad relationships, and too much drinking and late nights. I was at a low point in my life and felt pretty hopeless and alone. I worked with Jacob for 8 months. He was always understanding, gave me a lot of support, challenged me when I needed to be, and helped me to move to a healthier phase of my life. I felt like it was easy to talk to him, which helped me to be more accepting of myself and less judgmental. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for some help.
