Hi there! My name is Jackie Arceo and I am a Filipino-American Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California and am currently residing in San Diego. I received my Master's in Social Welfare from UCLA. I have worked in residential settings, schools, as well as outpatient clinics. I am trained in CBT, TF-CBT, DBT, and EMDR. When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my partner and going on regular foodie adventures.
I utilize a person-centered approach in therapy and ensure the clients I work with understand that they are in charge of their own lives. I value creating a space in my sessions where people feel seen, heard, and understood without judgement. I recognize that people are whole and complex beings and fully prioritize meeting folks wherever they are at.
Clients can expect to walk away from my sessions with increased insight, awareness, and perspective. I acknowledge that finding solutions or answers to hard questions may not be feasible at the end of every session. Nonetheless, I fully believe that a work in progress is progress in and of itself, & I hope I can be of support to you in your learning and growing journey.
