After graduating from Brigham Young University, Jacob studied in the clinical-community psychology doctoral program at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. His dissertation research examined competing narratives of medical treatment for depression. After finishing his PhD, Jacob accepted a position as research director at Utah Youth Village, a nonprofit for abused children and families in crisis. In recent years, his focus has been long-term treatment outcome studies and developing in-home, public health interventions for depression. With mindfulness teacher, Tom McConkie, Jacob recently started a new non-profit, All of Life (www.alloflife.org)--with an aim of developing online, risk-factor oriented classes for depression, anxiety and ADHD. Jacob has published 12 peer-reviewed articles and one book, in collaboration with Dr. Phil Neisser (State University of New York, Potsdam) entitled, "You're Not as Crazy as I Thought (But You’re Still Wrong) Conversations between a Devoted Conservative and a Die-Hard Liberal." His upcoming second book is a discourse analysis of the conversation about romance in the United States: "Once upon a time...they weren't feeling it anymore: Fleeting affection, passing attraction and the elusive happy ending." Jacob is married to Monique Moore, with one 18 month-old boy who makes sure his daddy smiles at least 9 times a day.
