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.
With more than thirty-one years in the mental health field, I bring both deep experience and a genuinely warm, unconditional presence to every session. I've had the privilege of working with people at every stage of life — from children as young as three to adults in their late nineties — across settings as varied as military bases, schools, residential programs, nursing facilities, and outpatient clinics. I earned both my bachelor's and master's degrees from the Indiana School of Social Work at IUPUI.
I believe every person has inherent value in this world, and I show up fully in your corner. My approach is collaborative — I work alongside you. Outside of the therapy room, I'm a proud mom of three and grandmother of five (my greatest joys), a dog and cat owner, and someone who recharges through travel, gardening, live music, and time in the outdoors. That human life informs how I connect with the people I work with.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Fort Wayne
Finding family therapists in Fort Wayne starts with understanding what your family wants to address together. Family therapy can support parenting conflict, adolescent concerns, blended family dynamics, communication challenges across generations, and relationship strain at home. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with family counseling, child and adolescent concerns, parenting support, or approaches that match your needs.
Fort Wayne has a steady network of therapists, and your best fit may depend on schedule, session format, and who needs to attend. Some families prefer in-person care when several people join from the same location, while virtual appointments can make it easier to include family members with different schedules or homes. Session attendance may vary by goal — a therapist may meet with the full family, specific family members, or one person at a time. Read therapist bios to understand their approach, availability, and how they structure family sessions before you book.
Therapy in Fort Wayne can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for family therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose from therapists who are accepting new patients. You can compare profiles, check fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
