What is the Foresight Psychological Institute? +
The Foresight Psychological Institute is a multi-specialty psychology practice founded by Dr. Alan Jacobson, Psy.D., MBA. It serves as the parent organization for four integrated practice divisions: advanced psychotherapy, precision psychological testing, performance psychology and coaching, and therapeutic tutoring. The unifying philosophy is science-based, forward-looking care focused on potential and measurable results — not just symptom management.
How is Foresight Psychological Institute different from a typical psychology practice? +
Most practices offer a single service — therapy or testing, but rarely both, and almost never coaching or tutoring alongside clinical care. Foresight Psychological Institute integrates all of these under one roof, with a shared clinical philosophy and cross-service coordination when needed. We also incorporate Natural Foresight methods and performance science tools — like Heart Rate Variability biofeedback and EMDR — that go well beyond standard talk therapy. The goal is always meaningful, measurable improvement.
Where are services available, and are virtual sessions an option? +
In-person sessions are available in the Greater Boston area (Westwood, MA) and San Diego, CA. Telehealth services are available across 44 U.S. states through PSYPACT, a licensure compact that allows licensed psychologists to practice across state lines. Psychological testing, therapy, coaching, and therapeutic tutoring are all available virtually for eligible clients.
