My name is Jacqueline. I am a licensed clinical mental health therapist in Kentucky. I have been in this field for 14 years and have a genuine passion for the work I do. While I specialize in addiction, trauma and grief, I have worked with individuals on an individual as well as group level, focusing on a variety of areas of mental health issues. My approach is more of an eclectic approach. I do not insist on using any particular modality for each client, but rather, I like to development my approach and methods toward and around the individual needs of each specific client I serve. I find fulfillment in being able to help those in need, to overcome obstacles they are faced with. Everyone deserves to find their place of happiness and true contentment and to be able to reach the highest level of satisfaction in themselves and where their lives are at and going. It can be difficult to see and experience when you are weighed down with all the stressors life presents. I look forward to meeting you and being able to go on your journey with you.
I focus on improvement with my clients. My goal each time, is not only to help my client explore and discover, but to also help them feel better walking out the door than they felt walking in as a result of recognizing hope and the authentic changes occurring within themselves, helping them to realize they can become or change anything whatever they wish.
I have to say my biggest strengths is my ability to connect with others and maintain no judgment along with great empathy in understanding what another is actually feeling or perceiving.
I have worked in depth with individual to try to identify and modify maladaptive and irrational thoughts that contribute to their negative emotions to help them in minimizing their symptoms.
