Jacob Kresky

Licensed Master Social Worker

Jacob Kresky, LMSW

I’m Jacob Kresky, a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) based in Wichita, Kansas. I work with adults and adolescents who are navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, burnout, and life transitions. My approach to therapy is grounded in authenticity, compassion, and evidence-based care, with an emphasis on creating a space where clients feel understood, respected, and supported at their own pace.

Working Together

I believe therapy works best when it is collaborative and tailored to the individual. Rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model, I work alongside clients to understand their goals, values, lived experiences, and we build a plan together. Sessions are structured yet flexible, balancing reflection with practical skill-building to help clients develop insight, strengthen coping strategies, and move toward meaningful change.

Areas of Focus

I support clients working through a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, mood-related challenges, trauma, adjustment difficulties, stress and burnout, and identity-related concerns. I also have experience working with individuals navigating complex systems, high-pressure environments, and major life changes. Care is always approached through a trauma-informed and client-centered lens.

Therapeutic Approach

My work draws from established, evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT-informed), person centered, mindfulness-based practices, and Motivational Interviewing. These approaches are used thoughtfully and flexibly, based on each client’s needs and preferences. More information about these approaches can be found on the Approach page.

Seeking Therapy

Seeking therapy is a personal decision, and finding the right fit matters. If you’re considering working together, you’re welcome to reach out with questions or schedule a consultation to see whether this practice feels like a good match for you.
