About Jacqueline

Jacqueline Robertson, LMFT (MFT 125830), is a licensed marriage and family therapist with over 17 years of experience helping clients create sustainable life change and discover deep self-compassion. Her practice is a distinctive blend of evidence-based clinical therapies and holistic mind-body-spirit approaches — integrating scientific rigor with the depth of spiritual and somatic healing.

She holds a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University and is trained in Attachment Theory, EMDR (EMDRIA), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Compassion Focused Therapy, Hakomi Mindfulness, and somatic approaches. She is also a certified Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy Provider through the Integrative Psychiatry Institute (IPI, 2023), offering ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP) with thoughtful preparation and integration support.

Jacqueline specializes in anxious attachment and fear of abandonment, women’s issues and midlife transitions, self-esteem, stress and anxiety (including social anxiety and imposter syndrome), grief and loss, relationship challenges, and unresolved trauma — including the lasting impact of dysfunctional childhoods. Clients often find her when they already understand “why” they struggle, but still feel triggered, anxious, or overwhelmed in relationships. Her highly relational, somatic, heart-centered style helps the nervous system finally feel safe enough to relax and trust again.

A Personal Note from Jacqueline

My Approach to Therapy

As a therapist, I work collaboratively with clients to meet goals, create sustainable and consistent life changes, and discover deep self-compassion. My practice is a unique blend of evidence-based therapies and holistic mind-body-spiritual approaches.

I am trained in Attachment Theory, EMDR, CBT, Compassion Focused Therapy, and Hakomi Mindfulness. This comprehensive training allows me to offer a multifaceted approach to emotional wellness — integrating the scientific rigor of clinical psychology with the depth of spiritual and holistic practices. My approach is deeply rooted in understanding the interconnectedness of the mind, body, and spirit.

By working with you to identify and shift limiting core beliefs and dysfunctional patterns, I aim to foster a journey of healing and self-discovery. This is not just about mental health; it encompasses the whole being — acknowledging how our thoughts, emotions, physical sensations, and spiritual beliefs are intricately linked.

You’re not “too much,” and you’re not broken. Whether you are navigating anxious attachment, grief, trauma, burnout, or relationship anxiety, I provide a supportive space to help you understand these patterns, calm your nervous system, and build emotional safety. Our work goes beyond talking — it engages the body, where deep transformation happens. Together we cultivate practical tools like mindfulness and cognitive restructuring so you can build more loving relationships and greater self-acceptance.
