Jacqueline Machado

Hi there! I'm Jackie! My passion is helping adults navigate life’s challenges and discover more about themselves. Whether you're feeling stressed, grappling with difficult emotions, or seeking clarity, I'm here to support you.

My Approach
I blend various therapeutic methods to help you understand yourself better and create positive change. Here’s how we’ll work together:

Psychodynamic Therapy: We’ll explore how your past influences your present.
Attachment Theory: Understanding your relationships with yourself and others.
Mindfulness & Somatic Techniques: These tools help you tune into your thoughts and emotions, promoting emotional balance.
Neuroscience Insights: Learning how your brain processes experiences can be empowering.
Nervous System Awareness: We’ll address your body’s responses to stress and trauma, guiding us on how to manage those reactions together.

Who I Work With
I specialize in supporting adults who feel overwhelmed or uncertain about their emotional struggles. My areas of focus include trauma, grief, attachment issues, depression, anxiety, and emotional dysregulation. I also help clients learn effective ways to handle conflict and communicate their needs. Together, we’ll work on rebuilding connections with loved ones and restoring relationships that may feel strained.

My Style
I’m here to listen with compassion and empathy, creating a safe space for you to share your experiences. My goal is to help you feel truly heard and understood while offering new perspectives to deepen your self-awareness.

Our Goals Together
In our first session, we’ll chat about what you hope to achieve in therapy. Together, we’ll set realistic, meaningful goals that align with your aspirations and create a plan to tackle your current challenges. I’ll guide you in connecting with your emotions and exploring your concerns with kindness. It’s all about setting a solid foundation for our work together.
