Hi! I’m Jackie. I want to start by saying thanks for being here. I feel deeply honored to have the privilege to serve others as a clinical social worker. Being with people as they share their experiences, thoughts, and feelings is a role I cherish immensely.

I started my career in the mental health field in 2019. I served my community in Southern Indiana as clinical therapist at a community mental health center working with adults, adolescents, and children as they navigated relationships, stress, life changes, difficult and traumatic experiences, feelings of depression and anxiety, along with other presenting problems. I also held roles in non-profit work as a clinical supervisor and treatment director, supervising other therapists as they served clients in the community.

I am trained in and draw from evidence-based interventions including Child-Parent Psychotherapy (CPP), Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Seeking Safety, Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Motivational Interviewing, and Attachment-Based Family Therapy. I also pull from training in Nurturing Parenting, Trust-Based Relational Intervention, Risking Connection, and Celebrating Families.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s degree in Social Work and over four years of experience providing trauma-informed mental health care. Since beginning my therapy career in 2022, I have supported individuals facing complex trauma, depression, anxiety, and attachment-related challenges.

I specialize in EMDR and mindfulness training, offering clients a dynamic blend of advanced therapeutic modalities and empathic presence. My approach is rooted in the belief that true healing requires both symptom relief and the opportunity to reframe core beliefs shaped by trauma. I believe in getting to the root of the present day issues.

My clinical work focuses on helping clients reclaim personal agency, build emotional resilience, and reconnect with meaning and self-worth. I hold space for deep emotional work and guide clients toward lasting transformation.

I am committed not just to alleviating distress but to empowering people to rewrite their stories.

As a wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, I am passionate about personal growth, both physically and mentally. I find balance through movement, whether it's walking my dogs, hiking, or riding my horses.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 20 years of experience helping people navigate life’s challenges with clarity, resilience, and compassion. Over the course of my career, I’ve supported clients across the lifespan — from prenatal and postpartum care to adolescent and adult mental health, family systems work, and support for individuals facing chronic illness or end‐of‐life transitions.

My clinical specialties include:

• Anxiety and depressive disorders
• Trauma and PTSD
• Chronic medical conditions and chronic pain
• Substance use and co‐occurring diagnoses

My background spans IOP/PHP programs, outpatient behavioral health, medical social work, and veteran services. This range of experience allows me to take a holistic, collaborative approach that considers the full context of a person’s life — their health, relationships, environment, and strengths.

At the heart of my work is a belief that therapy should feel grounding, supportive, and empowering. I strive to create a space where you can show up as you are, explore what’s weighing on you, and build the tools you need to move forward with confidence and self‐compassion.

If you’re looking for a therapist who brings experience, steadiness, and genuine partnership to the process, I’d be honored to support you

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 10 years of experience supporting individuals through life’s challenges, transitions, and moments that can feel overwhelming or uncertain. I work with clients who may be navigating anxiety, stress, major life changes, or simply feeling stuck and unsure of their next step.

My goal is to create a space where you feel genuinely heard, respected, and understood. Whether you're processing something specific or just know that things don’t feel quite right, we’ll work together to make sense of what you’re experiencing and move toward meaningful change.
