Through a client centered approach, I incorporate an existential orientation to empower and support clients in gaining a more holistic state of mental, emotional, and physical well-being. I am an IFS and CBT informed practitioner that leans on nature based interventions and mindfulness/trauma-informed stress reduction tools when needed. I tend to attract clients who are looking for a warmhearted and open-minded clinician who is affirming to neurodiversity and alternative lifestyles, while being participatory in the therapeutic process.

I help clients navigate mood disorders, anxiety, grief, chronic illness, stress, trauma, substance use, and other life challenges.

I embrace clients from diverse backgrounds and faith traditions, and try to help clients find meaning from life's trials. I honor clients' unique stories and help them to build resilience and coping skills for the journey ahead.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family (LMFT) therapist working from a systemic lens through my virtual private practice. My philosophy is that through cultivating your relationship with yourself and by becoming the best, most developed version of yourself, you can engage in relationships - romantic, familial, and platonic - in deeper, more meaningful, and healthier ways. My hope is to facilitate you and/or you and your loved ones through this process by exploring what is keeping you stuck and discovering old patterns that no longer serve you.

I offer online psychotherapy to teens and adults eager to grow and reach their full potential. I have worked successfully with clients throughout the lifespan, addressing the challenges of each stage of life - becoming independent, choosing a career, building and ending relationships, pregnancy, parenting, and aging. I help my clients address the painful experiences of depression, anxiety, grief and loss, infertility, caring for a sick or aging loved one, trauma, and body image/disordered eating.

I have extensive experience and interest in working with individuals looking to recover from the effects of growing up in alcoholic or other dysfunctional households. Adversity and traumatic experiences are common. Strategies to reduce the impacts can include numbing, detaching, becoming depressed/hopeless, compulsiveness (i.e. acting without thinking), over-functioning, over-responsibility, avoidance, isolation, perfectionism, procrastination, hypervigilance and many others. All of which are protective and helpful when needed but often lead to inner conflict and unintended blowback including feelings of shame and worthlessness.

When you’re looking for a therapist, one of the most important things is finding someone with whom you can develop a safe, healthy, and trusting relationship. I believe that it is in the context of this kind of relationship, that healing, growth, and learning occur. I’ve had a rich and varied career working as a psychologist and training doctoral students in a range of settings including an inpatient hospital, a clinic for families living with HIV, in community mental health clinics, and in private practice.

Life can be full of challenges and tribulations that can impact our well being and mental health. I believe our inherent resiliency and adaptability as human beings helps us overcome the many challenges that we face. A strength of therapy is the ability to allow a person to be their true self and to have their strengths and talents fully recognized. My work with clients is grounded in acceptance, validation, and empathy. I strive to create a safe environment for my clients to begin the process of change and growth.

I work with adults of all ages, but I have the most experience working with Gay men, and men and women in their 20's and 30's struggling with romantic, friendship, and familial relationships. I believe that therapy itself is built on a sincere relationship, and I use curiosity and empathy to form meaningful connections with my clients within the context of our professional work.
At the start of our work together, a client of mine may feel anxious, lonely, or enraged. My goal is that people are comfortable enough with me to feel, destigmatize, and explore these feelings, while continuing to pursue change, acceptance, and peace.

I am a trauma-informed, integrative, EMDR trained therapist. I use ego states and parts work in conjunction with somatic work to help bring ‘online’ the left and right hemispheres of your brain. I am focused on treating the whole person and would like to have an open, honest conversation about what you are looking for and your treatment wants and needs.

Our painful experiences and the conditions of our society often push us to disconnect from our authentic selves, relationships, communities, and the world around us. I view healing as a process of reconnection. In our work together, we will aim to make sense of your story, explore all the parts of you that make you who you are, and work through places where you feel stuck. Through this process, my hope is that you can live your life with more agency and authenticity, more skills and tools to manage the challenges, and more capacity to experience ease, connection, and the full range of human emotions.

Sankofa Healing Studio - Jacqui
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC, ATR-BC, CCMHC, PMH-C, RYT
Philadelphia, PA 19144
At Sankofa Healing Studio, we honor the truth that healing is not linear—and for many, it begins after disconnection, survival, or silence. If you’re navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, major life transitions, or the weight of systemic injustice—including racialized harm—we’re here. Our therapists offer culturally rooted, justice-informed care that centers your insight, autonomy, and ancestral wisdom. We hold space for those impacted by racism-based trauma, generational wounding, identity stressors, and the grief of navigating systems not built for our thriving—while nurturing joy, truth, liberation, and embodied healing.

I view psychotherapy as the ultimate practice of self-care. Sessions are a time to explore your inner self, your outer relationships, and evaluate how your past and present influence your future. I approach treatment with an existential, intersectional feminist, and person-centered lens – this means I consider gender, race, class, sexuality, belief, biology, ability, physicality, and life experiences during our work together.

Developing a contemplative and compassionate relationship with ourselves is fundamental to healing and well-being. Inequity, trauma and feeling alone or not understood can unsettle this fundamental relationship. What’s more, when we’re struggling to love ourselves, often we're also struggling in relationships with others. I offer therapeutic support drawing on a variety of approaches to promote a stronger sense of connection with self and others. I offer a safe and accepting space to all identities. I aim to be an actively engaged, warm, and a mindfully attuned collaborator in the therapeutic process.
