Hi! My name is Jackie, and I'm currently a Counseling Intern pursuing my M.A. at Kean University. I have experience supporting college students navigating academic, personal, and life-transition challenges, and have worked with individuals facing concerns such as stress, anxiety, identity development, relationship difficulties, and academic pressures, and provided a supportive space for exploration and growth. I believe in the power of authentic connection, collaboration, and honoring each client’s lived experience while being attentive to how systems, culture, and identity impact mental health. I'm passionate about helping clients build resilience, develop self-compassion, and cultivate confidence as they navigate their personal, professional, or academic journeys.
