Mr. Jacob Galindez, MSW, LMSW – Licensed Clinical Social Worker

Hi, I am Jacob Galindez, LMSW, born and raised in Detroit, MI. I started my career focusing on Criminal Justice, but I quickly found that I did not want to be the hammer, but the help. From there, I earned my Bachelor of Social Work from Grand Valley State University and Master of Social Work from Eastern Michigan University. I specialized in mental health and substance abuse.

With almost 20 years’ experience with working with kids, adults, and Veterans and their families, I bring a vast variety of tools to the table. I am passionate about working with individuals to help them find their confidence. I enjoy working with and coaching kids and adults, whether that be in fitness, sports, relationships, or life in general.  I also have a strong background and passion in collaborating with individuals struggling with substance abuse and or the ripple effects from it.  I have a foundation in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing. When I am not at work, I love spending time with my wife and two children, going fishing, and very much enjoy coaching and wrestling on the side!

Everything is an opportunity if we allow it to be.
