About Jacqueline

Jacqueline Prince, LCSW, is a Pennsylvania-licensed clinical social worker who works with adults, adolescents, couples, and families navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, burnout, and major life transitions. Her clinical work is grounded in the belief that people are often doing the best they can with patterns and coping strategies that once helped them get through difficult experiences.

Jacqueline's experience spans outpatient therapy, crisis intervention, integrated healthcare, pain management, substance use treatment, and community behavioral health. She has worked with people during some of the most difficult and uncertain periods of their lives, including acute emotional crises, significant relationship challenges, chronic pain, grief, and major life changes. This broad clinical experience has shaped her interest in the ways mental health, relationships, physical health, stress, and daily functioning intersect.

In therapy, Jacqueline draws from cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, EMDR, mindfulness-based approaches, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy. She works with clients to understand not only what they are experiencing, but also the patterns, beliefs, relationships, and circumstances that may be keeping them stuck. Her approach is warm, collaborative, and practical, with an emphasis on helping people develop insight while also finding strategies they can actually use in everyday life.

Jacqueline is particularly interested in anxiety and emotional regulation, relationship dynamics and communication, grief and life transitions, trauma and its lasting effects, workplace stress and burnout, and the ways people adapt when life does not go as planned. She believes therapy should provide a space where people can be honest about what they are experiencing without being reduced to a diagnosis or expected to have all the answers.

Jacqueline brings this perspective to her work as a mental health professional and reviewer, with the goal of helping make psychological information more approachable, useful, and grounded in the realities of people's lives.
