Beyond Counseling is a place to explore your true self and confront the trials of life. Together, we create a sacred space for healing, growth, and discovery. As a counselor, hearing your story is one of my greatest privileges. It is my hope that as your life story unfolds, we can better prepare you (the main character) to face and embrace the challenges, opportunities and events that shape you.

Amanda is passionate about helping clients navigate difficult situations.

Hi, I’m Jackie. My approach to therapy is simple and human: you are the expert on your life, and my role is to walk alongside you as a guide, not to rush, fix, or judge.

We’ll make room for hard emotions, patterns that feel stuck, and the parts of you that are trying their best to protect you.

Every individual has a story that deserves to be heard and, more importantly, understood without judgment. Both children and adults seek a space where they can express themselves openly and feel genuinely listened to.
At Beacon of Hope Counseling Services, we are committed to meeting each client exactly where they are, offering a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment where healing can begin. Life inevitably brings challenges, and unlike many things, it does not come with a guidebook for navigating difficult seasons.
Children experience these challenges as well, but with less life experience and fewer tools to communicate

I feel stuck. I feel broken. I don’t even know what I feel. If this sounds like you, you aren't alone. My mission is to provide a non-judgmental space where you can explore and process your current and past struggles. Research shows that when we recall traumatic events, the part of our brain responsible for speech can shut down. I draw from trauma-informed approaches to help you express and heal, even when words fail. Let's work together to reclaim your well-being.
