More about Jacqueline

- LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New Jersey with over 20 years of experience working as a social worker. I have worked with people challenged by depression, anxiety, trauma, abuse, grief, LGBTQ+ and life changing situations. My approach includes solution focused, client centered, and strengths based work.
When working with clients, I work towards making this experience powered by you while I support and help find your goals. Life can be challenging and it is important for all of us to make sure we are emotionally prepared for these hardships as best we can. By signing up for therapy, you are taking the first step to take control of how your life moves forward.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
