Great to meet you!

Hello, and welcome! I’m Jackie Girgis, a Licensed Psychotherapist with over 20 years of experience, dedicated to helping individuals navigate life's challenges with confidence and resilience. Whether you’re facing sadness, anxiety, or overwhelming stress, you've come to the right place for support.

Let me help you navigate feelings of sadness, worry, or life stress so you can find your path to healing.

My approach to therapy

I work with individuals and couples facing depression, anxiety, and stress related to career, relationships, family, and personal growth. Specializing in trauma and life transitions (e.g., career changes, college, life milestones), I use evidence-based treatments to help clients overcome current challenges or past trauma. My approach emphasizes attachment, relationships, family, culture, and spirituality to guide you through difficult life decisions.

What you can expect from me

You will learn about yourself, to express and understand your feelings. Gain a deeper understanding of where your struggles are coming from and uncover realistic solutions for them. You will learn skills and strategies to cope with your stress. I will give you the tools you need to get your needs met. I invite you to use the time together to help you figure out how to be the best YOU. Know that you are not alone in this and I will be with you every step of the way. Now, let’s get started...
