Helping people who feel stuck get unstuck is my passion. Finding balance and addressing feeling disconnected or overwhelmed. Offering enthusiastic support and new perspectives on the underlying reasons a person or couple is struggling and then how to make real change. We will build awareness and incorporate new skills to address whatever feels hard right now. And working towards being more content. Often, this includes helping people learn how to better identify and communicate their needs and hopes and desires.

Have you been feeling dissatisfied or discouraged in your day-to-day life? Do you feel like what you are doing falls short of what you want to accomplish? This can be pretty demoralizing, and it is not uncommon to keep doing what you are doing in the hopes that things will change or get better. Unfortunately, this is often not the case. Hoping for change is not enough for most people, and while there is comfort in knowing what to expect, it doesn’t get you any closer to the life that you deserve. You deserve to be healthy, happy, and fulfilled in all areas of your life. Together, we can get you in a place to make that happen.

Please Note: Currently have availability. It can be a very scary feeling to take the first step towards therapy for you or your loved ones, and it takes courage and strength to ask for help. You are now taking those all-important first steps! You may be experiencing feelings of anxiety, depression, loneliness, and hopelessness, just to mention a few on a very long list of not-so-good feelings. Any of these feelings can make you feel stressed, unmotivated, and not knowing how to move forward.

Jackie is passionate about helping others succeed in improving their mental health and chemical health symptoms so they can live an optimal healthy life. She utilizes Positive Psychology concepts and Motivational Interviewing which are both a form of strength-based approaches.

If life seems out of balance, you find it difficult to cope with stress, you can’t stop worrying, you are often sad or depressed, or you feel dissatisfied with relationships or your life’s direction, then perhaps psychotherapy can help. I specialize in helping adults and older adolescents (age 16 and older) overcome issues that range from anxiety, depression, mild trauma, anger, grief and loss, relationship difficulties, compulsive behaviors, and substance abuse/codependency issues to managing life transitions.

We all deserve to be the happiest and healthiest version of ourselves. Taking the first step to reach out for support and entrust someone to walk beside you in this journey can feel incredibly vulnerable. My aspiration is to create an open environment from one human to another where you feel seen and safe to show up authentically. You are the true expert on your life and I want you to leave each session feeling empowered. Together we can create space for self-exploration, build a foundation of skills to help anchor through difficult times, and include humor (when appropriate) along the way.

Unleash your inner mermaid. Like a mermaid, you were born wondrous and whole, with awe-inspiring potential. Perhaps, like her, trauma hides your power, voice, and sense of magic; tries to cut you off from true self, body, community, and nature’s rhythms; tells oppressive stories that serve to keep you “in your place,” lost, lonely, ashamed, fearful, unfulfilled, or hating your body. The mermaid reclaims her birthright and returns to her community– stronger and more magnificent than ever. You, too, can lay that colonizing fear “am I enough?” in its watery grave, re-discover your voice, step into your wild power, and trust yourself.

If you are here, it is likely that something in your life isn’t serving you well, shattered your plans and expectations, left you wondering how to navigate next steps, or all of the above. Medical crises and treatments can leave trauma and pain in their path for both a patient and those closest to them. Medical treatment can be necessary and beneficial to someone’s health while also being traumatic and painful. You are justified in feeling a complex mix of gratitude and grief about your experiences. You want better for yourself and that is a solid foundation for progress. You deserve to find joy in life, whatever it has thrown at yo

Life can bring some unexpected twists and turns, and it can be helpful to talk with someone to process, and heal from these events.

I imagine you're seeking a psychotherapist for counseling because you hope to make some important changes. Success working with a psychologist depends on you feeling comfortable engaging in a collaborative manner with her. Some therapy sessions may be difficult as you ask important questions about yourself, how you function in the world. As you proceed, you may experience frustration, confusion, anxiety, self-doubt and/or conflicted feelings, but at the end of your psychotherapy you'll most likely have learned something new to help you with the concerns that brought you in to seek psychological treatment.
