About Jackie
Meet Jacqueline and see how her experience and expertise can help empower you to gain a new perspective on your journey.
After over a decade as an educator and school counselor, I embraced the journey of motherhood. While I was excited about having a baby, I encountered anxiety and significant emotional upheaval as I navigated my new identity as a mother. This experience highlighted the complex challenges of parenting, motivating me to return to school and earn a Certificate in Clinical Mental Health to support others during this vulnerable time.
My training has equipped me with specialized skills in working with couples and perinatal clients, enabling me to effectively address the unique challenges associated with these significant life events. I believe in the power of education as a vital component of therapy, using it to empower my clients with knowledge and strategies they can apply in their daily lives.

My Approach -
Specializing in couples therapy and perinatal mental health, I understand that the journey of love and parenthood can be both beautiful and complex. I firmly believe that every relationship has the potential for growth and healing.
The transition into parenthood is a time of profound change, and it’s essential to honor the emotional aspects of this journey. I strive to create a welcoming and empathetic space where you can express your feelings freely, gain insight, and develop strategies to enhance your well-being.
I employ a systems approach in my therapy, exploring how beliefs, actions, and expectations are intertwined and influence our perceptions of the world.
I believe that understanding the "why" behind your symptoms is crucial for healing. By explaining the underlying factors contributing to your experiences, I help demystify feelings of anxiety, stress, or disconnection.
Alongside this understanding, I provide actionable strategies that clients can implement at home, empowering them to create meaningful changes in their daily lives.
Whether you are navigating relationship dynamics, adjusting to new parental roles, or managing the emotional challenges of pregnancy and postpartum life, my goal is to equip you with the tools and insights needed to foster resilience and connection. I am here to support you every step of the way.
