Jacqueline is an incredible therapist. She creates a safe, comfortable space to share and asks great questions to help me work through challenges I’m facing. She provides great insights and advice as well, while encouraging me to explore what I’m thinking and feeling. In the relatively short time I’ve been working with her I’ve grown so much more confident and comfortable with my feelings and needs, and speaking up about them with people in my life in a healthy way. Each week I walk away with new ideas and strategies to use in my everyday life and in the relationships that are most important to me.
