Years of Experience in the field of Social Work

Meet Jacquelyn

I believe healing is possible—for everyone.

I completed my undergraduate degree in social work at Azusa Pacific University and a master’s degree in social work with an emphasis in children, youth and families from California State University Long Beach. I have worked with children and families in the foster care system, provided counseling and parenting classes for women experiencing domestic violence and became a licensed clinical social worker in 2006. I served as Adjunct Professor in the Department of Social Work at Azusa Pacific for 9 years teaching students in both MSW and BSW programs and serving as a Field Faculty Liaison. At the same time beginning a private practice in 2013 providing individual and couples therapy. I have seen countless people experience hope and healing through counseling. As a Christian I am so thankful for the work God has done in my own life. It is a privilege to partner with Him in helping others. As a therapist I also integrate Christian counseling based on Biblical truth upon request.

We all face difficult seasons. What if we could learn from them, find support, and grow stronger?

My Approach

Therapy that meets you where you are.

Every client begins with a thorough assessment. I assess each client from a biological, psychological, social and spiritual perspective looking at the whole person in their environment. I utilize evidence-based practice frameworks including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Attachment Theory, Family Systems and Strength-Based approaches and integrate Christian counseling upon on request.

Together we can work to:

Better manage stress, anxiety or overwhelming emotions

Improve communication and relationships

Build confidence and emotional resilience

Heal from past hurt and trauma

Navigate life's transitions with greater clarity and peace
