She grew up in Tijuana, Baja California until the age of 12. Her parents migrated to the U.S. to seek a better life for the family. As a teen, she struggled adjusting to a new culture, language, friends, trends, you name it! However, these years made a huge impact in her life and led her to the path of becoming a therapist.

In her work, she believes in creating a safe therapeutic space to facilitate insight and understanding while laying the groundwork for healing and growth. 

Jackie loves to embark on new adventures and create magical experiences. She is very community driven and stands by her life motto “we can’t heal alone, we heal together.”
