Over the past decade+, Jaclyn has worked with children and young adults in a variety of settings. She received her Master of Arts in Teaching Secondary English in 2014 from the University of Pittsburgh. After teaching in Virginia and Pennsylvania, Jaclyn was drawn to working with students on their mental health and how it can affect other areas of life. This led her earning her Master’s in School Counseling (K-12) in 2019 from Indiana University of Pennsylvania. She has had the opportunity to work with children and teens in both school and outpatient settings addressing anger management, social skills, coping skills, stress/anxiety, depression, ADHD and focus, and identity.
​
Jaclyn works with children 4+, teens, adults, and families. She predominantly employs person-centered, play and art therapy techniques, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR), and trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT). These methods serve to connect with the client in a safe and empathetic environment. The goal of these therapeutic methods is to aid clients in recognizing their strengths and how thought patterns can impact behaviors, as well as identifying and practicing coping skills.
