My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Throughout my career, I have worked with numerous clients dealing with issues such as anxiety, depression, and trauma-related disorders. CBT's structured framework and goal-oriented nature have consistently proven valuable in helping clients understand and modify unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. I have seen firsthand how CBT can lead to meaningful, lasting changes in clients' emotional well-being and daily functioning.

Attachment-based

My experience with Attachment Theory has been deeply enriching, providing valuable insights into how early relational patterns shape individuals' emotional lives and interpersonal dynamics. Over the years, I have integrated Attachment Theory into my practice to help clients understand and address issues related to their attachment styles and relationship patterns.

Trauma Informed Care

Trauma-Informed Care (TIC) has been a cornerstone of my therapeutic approach, providing a framework for understanding and addressing the profound impact of trauma on individuals' lives. My experience with TIC has deepened my ability to create a safe, empathetic, and empowering environment for clients who have experienced trauma.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

Mindfulness-Based Therapy (MBT) has been a transformative component of my therapeutic approach, offering clients powerful tools for managing stress, enhancing self-awareness, and fostering emotional resilience. My experience with MBT has deepened my ability to support clients in cultivating a more mindful and balanced approach to their mental health.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) has been a highly effective approach in my therapeutic practice, providing clients with a pragmatic and goal-oriented framework for addressing their concerns. Over the years, I have worked extensively with clients using SFBT, which emphasizes identifying and building on existing strengths and resources to create practical solutions. This method has proven effective for clients seeking short-term therapy and those looking to achieve specific goals efficiently. My training and experience with SFBT have equipped me with the skills to guide clients through a collaborative and solution-oriented process.

Jackie is very kind, thoughtful, and empathetic. She makes me feel heard, even if she hasn't had the same shared experiences. I would highly recommend having a therapy session with her!
