About Jacquella
I am licensed in Connecticut with 6 years of professional work experience. My primary specialty is emotional regulation. This means if you are experiencing anxiety, stress, sadness, anger, low mood or other difficult emotions we will work together to increase your understanding of those emotions and therefore your ability to manage them. You don’t have to have the perfect words, the perfect mood, or the perfect version of yourself when you show up. Just come as you are.
