Jackie has been my therapist for a few months now as I’ve been going through a major shift in my life. I know without a doubt, that her help and intervention made it such a great experience for me and my family. She has a natural gift for her profession and really gets to the heart of the matter. She is very insightful, honest, and to the point, giving clear and practical feedback. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!

Jacqueline helped me work through a number of issues related to service-​connected Post Traumatic Stress. She and I use Prolonged Exposure Therapy (promoted by the Dept. of Veterans’ Affairs) to mitigate my symptoms. I would recommend Jacqueline to any service member looking to get their symptoms under control.

I started this program with Jacqui not really knowing what my purpose was. Constantly failing classes and I didn’t really care about much because I didn’t think there was a point. I was lost. As I finally got my self to go to Jacqui for help. I never thought I would see the light at the end of the tunnel but because of Jacqui I did. I completely flipped a 180. I am in a place in my life that I never thought I would see again because of her! Straight As in my classes, found a career path, and motivated to do more. And I could not have done that with out her. I am so happy at this point in my life and I could not thank her enough. She help me find myself. I love love love her !!!

I have been a client of Jackie’s for almost a year now. I would have to say I truly enjoy her approach to addressing your issues in therapy. I decided to seek out therapy due to some unresolved issues I had from my childhood. Jackie was good at getting me to look at those situations, feel and express how I felt about those past experiences. Although it was a difficult subject I was addressing in therapy, Jackie was a great support to help me through the process.
Additionally my husband and I saw her for couples therapy and she was able to get us to communicate in a way where we would listen to one another.
I would say she is a down to earth, no non sense therapist, who is caring about her clients and very willing to assist you through the therapeutic process. Jackie also uses humor and her own personal experiences to help you through.

If you are looking for a compassionate, knowledgable, experienced therapist with a great sense of humor, than Jackie is the therapist for you. I was looking for a couples therapist to help my husband and I out with a few kinks in our marriage. I found Jackie on a list of eligible therapists in my area from my insurance company. Called several, and she was the first and I believe, the only one to call me back and did so the very next day. She let me know that she was fully booked and that she would put me on a waiting list. She must have heard the desperation in my voice because she quickly looked at her schedule and found time to see us. First impression was great. Her office is very well kept and welcoming. The setting feels more like an at home visit than an office visit to your therapist. I love that in the waiting room, she has tea bags, water and a microwave at your disposal should you care for some tea. When we arrived, she had us fill out some questionaries. Once we began going through our paperwork with her I was excited to find out that she was not only a couples therapist, but she also specialized in traumatic experiences. I had been to a different therapist a couple years prior to help me with a traumatic experience. That therapist failed to help me through my trauma and pain. Having had a bad first experience with a therapist, I was hopeful, but wasn’t sure what to expect from our therapy with Jackie. Since our first meeting with her back in November, Jackie has helped guide our marriage into a successful partnership, and has also brought new things to life for me. She helped me through a very difficult and traumatic experience with Prolonged Exposure Therapy. I have to be honest, I was skeptical about the therapy and didn’t expect it to be as successful as it was. It has been an amazing experience and I now feel like I’m finally living my life as I should have. My anxiety, since the therapy, has reduced significantly. There are still a few things to work on with her, but I feel like our time with her is coming close to an end, which makes me sad because we truly enjoy our meetings with her.
Through her own life experiences, Jackie offers her knowledgable insight and is sure to get you though your rough times. Both my husband and myself highly recommend her. We clicked very well with her and felt a true compassion for what she does. I felt comfortable and secure in sharing with her my fears and concerns and am confident that she can do what she did for us, for anybody.

Jacqueline was very quick to respond, which was definitely a relief for someone who doesn’t want to sift through the complicated health database to find a specialized therapist. She was able to meet with my husband and I right away. I thought she was informative and knowledgable.
Things I didn’t like:
–Her office is not so private. I could very clearly hear sessions going on while waiting in the room next door.
–There were some comments that didn’t sit well with me. When I spoke about being overwhelmed carrying my child everywhere (he is colic), she said she did it. I thought this was very dismissive. I felt like she compared herself a lot to the situations I shared that have caused me anxiety, without fully understanding what I was telling her.
–I told her that I wasn’t ready for the therapy and let her know that I would not be attending the day prior, but when I told her I needed help, she completely ignored my text message. For someone in crisis, this is very alarming and not so professional.
Not every therapist gels well, and her personality was very rough and way too abrasive for my liking. I find her work enthusiastic and thorough for the three sessions I had with her, but I didn’t find her compassionate and motivating at all.

I highly recommend Jacqui as a therapist. I called her a few months ago after finding her website online, expecting to just make an appointment. Instead, she talked with me for half an hour in a friendly way about what was going on and whether she thought she could help. The fact that she dropped what she was doing to have an in-​depth conversation with a stranger speaks to her innate gift for counseling and her dedication to the people she works with. She also makes it so easy for a Hispanic man like myself to ask for help without any stigma.
Jacqui is extremely perceptive, intelligent and direct. She is able to be empathetic and non-​judgmental without sugar-​coating things. Working with Jacqui over the past few months has changed the way that I cope with stress and the way I approach my life.
