About Me

Hi, I’m Jaclyn

I know what it’s like to be the one people turn to—the helper, the fixer, the one who seems like she has it all together. But I also know what it’s like to look calm on the outside while quietly falling apart inside.

If you’re used to being the strong one, the responsible one, the one who gets stuff done no matter what, you’re probably also carrying more than anyone realizes. You might be anxious, overwhelmed, burned out—or just totally disconnected from what you want. If you’ve ever thought, “I should be able to handle this,” I want you to know: you’re not alone, and it’s okay to want something different.

The truth is, if beating yourself up was going to help, it would have worked by now.

But learning how to soften your inner critic, set real limits, and offer yourself the same care you give everyone else? That changes everything.

The Professional Stuff

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Pennsylvania and North Carolina and the owner of JHB Therapy, LLC. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Social Work (BSW) from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and my Master’s in Social Work (MSW) from the University of South Carolina. I specialized in Social Justice and Mental Health, two things that have always been passions of mine. I have spent the last decade and a half working with people from many different walks of life, helping them grow and overcome barriers.

My approach to therapy is simple—I see you as a whole person, not just a set of symptoms. By considering the mind, body, and environment, I will help you navigate life’s challenges with strategies that fit your unique needs.

If you want to confidently live the life you know you deserve, I’d love to help you get there.
