Hi! I am Jacquelyn but you can call me Jackie. I want to take a second to congratulate you on taking the first step to not only self care but to making a better future for you. Therapy can be a scary thing but it can also lead to self discovery in areas you never knew possible so congratulations and welcome to you're new beginning. I am a licensed LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) I have been in the field for over 6 years. I have been working primarily virtual for the past 4 years. My methods are client led I let you make this session about what you want it to be. I will never push in one direction or another until you are ready. Therapy is such an important thing in ones life when they are trying to grow and heal and with that being said it is very delicate. Let's collaborate to find the best path forward for you. With all of this being said let therapy be your safe place and let it work for you!

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

Our first session together is a time to get to know each other and figure out what are goals will be for future session. I work to make the environment as comfortable and safe as possible. By the end of session I want each person to feel like they made a new friend and that they now have someone who will have their back but not be afraid to tell them the truth. I want each person to feel like this is the start to a new adventure in self discovery.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

As a provider my greatest strength is allowing the client to be the expert and top meet the client where they are. This includes :Compassion; Humble; Learner; Motivator; Encourager; Supporter; Self-Aware. I will help you find that strength deep down and teach you how to be the best version of yourself. I believe as a provider I am also a fighter I will fight for you! I will stand next to you as long as you will let me. I am constantly educating myself on new techniques and new struggles people face so that I can be the best provider for all of my clients.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

CBT is integrated as a component in almost all treatment modalities. Targeting negative thoughts creates ability to cope with emotions in a more adaptive manner and subsequently creating desirable behavioral changes. This practice can help change the way you see the world and how you see yourself. Some of the most harm caused to an individual is through their negative thoughts.

Family Therapy

​Family therapy is a type of psychotherapy that helps family members better understand each other, support one another, and work through difficult situations. The generational curse can be the reason some people experience trauma they are forced to relive the past and are not able to be themselves. Through family therapy we can break generational curses and help enlighten future generations on different ways to act and live their lives.

Humanistic

This therapy is one of my favorites and I have been utilizing it for many of my session. This therapy allows the client to feel safe and validated in sessions and to for once not feel like they are "crazy". I love to validated and make people feel heard within session.

Group Therapy

Group therapy is healthy when it comes to finding those around you who have experienced similar situations. I specialize in group therapy when it comes to grief and loss.

Motivational Interviewing

Utilizing this method to help the client feel comfortable opening up about issues using open ended questions. Everyone like to talk about themselves when it comes to the right questions. I like to utilize those questions to help a client feel comfortable opening up about the problem at hand.
