Meet Jacqueline

I welcome all aspects of yourself, and I respect your timing in introducing me to each of those parts. My clinical thinking and practice are through a Trauma-Informed and Psychodynamic lens. This perspective affords me the tools to help you explore how past traumas and negative experiences may be influencing your present. To encourage this process, my style is relational. During our time together, you can expect to work with a warm, intentional, empathetic, and humorous clinician. I meet you where you are at. I respect your pace while utilizing my intuitive and direct nature to gently push our process through stagnant times.
