Jackie takes a person centered approach to care. You are the expert and she is there to help you learn to listen, discern and trust what your body, heart and mind is longing for in your life.

We believe that every experience, “symptom” and challenge is a process of birthing a more authentic and realized life.

Jackie takes an “unshaming” approach, which means we lovingly and compassionately step toward the parts of ourselves that may be repressed or caste out because of the systems in which we are conditioned by.

Clients find that their work with Jackie is deeper and more enriching than most therapists. It is “psychedelic” in a way that we go in depth and learn to hold the paradox.

Jackie has been studying the human condition most of her life. Even as a kid, doing her science projects on human behavior and psychology. She is fascinated and passionate by how we as humans operate and what we are here to do.
