About me

Hello. I'am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York. I have been working for 13+ years with families and clients of all ages. I enjoy helping and supporting clients on their individual journey. I have helped clients with depression, anxiety, trauma, abuse, adjustment issues, relationship challenges, anger management, self esteem, not being raised by biological family, and more.
My therapeutic style allows for adjustment, as I meet clients where they are, understanding that some might appreciate more direction, while others require less. Through it all, I uphold the value of vulnerability, walking alongside clients, building trust. I put my clients in the driver's seat, as we unravel complicated feelings, trauma, and pain, in order to gain peace, wholeness, and empowerment.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life, and to take the first step towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.

Jacquetta has helped me so much in the last year with dealing with the loss of my dad as well as my ongoing divorce process. I still have a ways to go, but Jacquetta was so amazing with walking me through this difficult time in my life.

Jacquetta guided me to a more empowered perspective of me and my life! She talked me through the why’s and how’s of turning inner criticism and self doubt into positivity and gratitude. She reminded me to own my confidence and what I’ve accomplished and achieved. She is a considerate and skilled therapist. Thank you!!

I feel lucky that I found Jaquetta! I can see a change in my mindset a shift to break through those old habit which restrained my own ability to think feel or have opinions about everything. She gave lots of empathy at the same time she really cares and directs me in the light. I can’t believe this is working!
