Meet Jackie

Jackie is a Licensed Clinical Psychologist and Behavioral Therapist at CBTeam. She specializes in the evidence-based treatment of OCD, anxiety disorders, and related conditions, providing therapy to children, adolescents, and adults using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and other evidence-based behavioral approaches.

Prior to joining CBTeam, Jackie completed her internship at the Obsessive Compulsive Disorder Institute (OCDI) at McLean Hospital, an affiliate of Harvard Medical School, where she received specialized training in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and psychological assessment. She completed her doctoral internship at the Edith Nourse Rogers Memorial Veterans Hospital, where she provided evidence-based treatment using Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), facilitated therapy groups for women veterans, and participated in a multi-site VA research study examining the use of ACT for veterans with PTSD and limited social support. Throughout her doctoral training, Jackie also developed expertise in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), CBT for psychosis, trauma-informed care, and recovery-oriented treatment across diverse clinical settings.

Outside of work, Jackie enjoys exploring New England and beyond with her husband and their black lab, Tucker. Originally from a small town near Florence, Italy, she loves cooking with fresh ingredients, sharing long meals with family and friends, and taking every opportunity to stargaze. Clients can expect a compassionate, collaborative, and flexible therapeutic approach that is tailored to their individual goals and values. Jackie strives to create a safe, supportive environment where clients feel understood while developing the skills and confidence to move toward a more meaningful and fulfilling life.
