More about Jacquetta

  • 14 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

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.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

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!

Jacquetta is very kind and does a great job asking the right questions to get to know you and make you feel comfortable. .I can see why she is in such high demand or has limited availability.

Reviewed August 2022

I always look forward to my sessions with Jacquetta. She's insightful and caring. Her strategies to work with my anxiety are very helpful. She gets me to talk more in depth about issues I glaze over as they've become so common to me, a testimony to her listening skills and therapeutic experience. And she definitely isn't worried to call me out either. My favourite part however is that we can laugh together and do so frequently.

To me, to have a professional therapist who is also a person of color is very important, because he/she mostly knows about the culture with afro-descendant people when it comes to mental health issues.

I have really enjoyed working with Jacquetta. She has been great at helping me process through my jumble of thoughts and feelings. She is caring and listens well, and she focuses well on the patient.
