I’m Jackie!

Jackilyn Garces, M.S, NCC, RMHCI

I’m a Registered Mental Health Counseling Intern, which means I’m in the process of becoming a fully licensed therapist. While I work under the supervision of a licensed professional, I bring over 5 years of experience working with clients of all ages and backgrounds. My training is extensive, including specialized certification in Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR), a powerful and evidence-based therapy for processing trauma. It’s truly life-changing, and I’m passionate about sharing it with others.

Growing up, mental health wasn’t openly discussed in my community, which is why I’m passionate about creating a space where you can talk openly about your struggles without fear or shame. As a Latina with Colombian roots, I know the pressure of balancing cultural expectations and personal identity, especially as a woman. These pressures have shaped me as an adult, and I use my own experience to help others navigate similar challenges, overcome self-doubt, and find their authentic selves.

Therapy with me isn’t one-size-fits-all. I personalize every session to meet your unique needs, offering a space for real conversation, healing, and growth. You don’t have to face this alone—let’s work together to help you break free from these pressures and thrive.
