I haven't been seeing her for long but I have made a lot of progress in that time. She's very understanding but is not afraid to tell it like it is. I am very comfortable with her and am willing to open up about the difficult things.
More about Jacquelyn
- 3 years' experience
- Female
- Psychologist
I am a clinical psychologist and have been licensed in the State of Maryland for over 25 years. I was born in St. Lucia, a Caribbean Island in the West Indies, and immigrated to Brooklyn, New York as an adolescent. My personal knowledge and clinical training working with English-speaking immigrants has resulted in significant understanding and expertise in family re-unification, challenges related to dual identity and adjustment in multigenerational households.
I received my master’s and doctoral degrees from the Pennsylvania State University and my clinical training at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine at Elmhurst Hospital in Queens, New York. I moved to Maryland in 1998 to provide school-based mental health services in the Baltimore City Public School System in partnership with the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Health Services at Johns Hopkins in Baltimore. Ultimately, becoming head of the department and finally retiring from Hopkins, leading all child related psychiatry programs, as Director of the Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Outpatient Programs.
My clinical work primarily focuses on supporting individuals transitioning to adulthood (ages 16 to 24 years), adults, seniors and families struggling with anxiety and depression from grief, loss and coping with life challenges.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

She’s great!
Very considerate; she listens intently and communicates effectively.
Dr Harvey is truly amazing! I’m just two sessions, we have really made strides to getting to the root. She’s extremely down to earth and easy to talk to, a true connection. I’m so thankful for her!
Dr. Harvey is thorough, patient, professional and an excellent listener. She helped me to make sense of the craziness and trauma I experienced as a child. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs a therapist that is a compassionate good listener.
She was great at coaching and supporting me through my grief and transitions in life
She is very experienced, personable and compassionate. I definitely feel heard when I need to feel heard, and I'm taught things when it's necessary. I've only had a couple of sessions, but I'm already starting to feel more confident in my ability to achieve my goals.

She has already hit the nail on the head more than once in only a few sentences. She is very responsive & helpful!!
