Professional statement

Jacqueline Glosman is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Registered Art Therapist who works primarily with adult clients one-on-one. She specializes in working with issues such as anxiety, self-esteem and self-criticism, identity and relational issues, perfectionism and imposter-syndrome, and life-transition challenges. Jacqueline has a special sensitivity in working with creatives, all gender identities (with a specific focus on millenial women), and first-generation adult-children of immigrant parents.

Jacqueline's approach to therapy is one that is active and interpersonal. In working with her clients, Jacqueline prioritizes entering her clients world through gaining a deep understanding of what their experiences have felt like and the messages they have internalized about themselves through these experiences. Through this understanding, Jacqueline helps clients identify some of the false beliefs they may have about themselves. Over time, in therapy, Jacqueline helps her clients discover their sense of self in a way that they may have not felt or believed in before, or for a while. Part of the therapeutic process is in gradually aiding clients in integrating a new and true way of seeing and feeling themselves, through developing self-compassion, expansive self-understanding, and strengthening their ability to self-regulate.

Jacqueline received her B.A. in Fine Arts through San Francisco Art Institute in 2014 and has a background in teaching art. She received her M.A. in Psychology with a specialization in Art Therapy in 2019 through Phillips Graduate University. Jacqueline has been working with clients in the Los Angeles area for the past four years, with specific experience in working with adult individuals through The Center for Individual and Family Counseling and West LA Therapist Corporation. She is currently working through her own practice, Jackie G. Therapy, located in Los Angeles.

Jacqueline is currently accepting new clients for teletherapy throughout all of California!


Message to clients

Many of us are struggling with chronic anxiety and a persistent inner-critic who expresses beliefs that we are not good enough, not capable enough, that we are the exception from everyone else who can figure things out. Many of us are also struggling with the persistent need to present ourselves a certain way to feel a sense of belonging or validation from others, which is often tethered to struggles with anxiety, self-esteem issues, trauma, and attachment ruptures. To feel safe enough being our authentic-selves may feel terrifying or filled with a deep sense of pain. We also may find it difficult to feel gratitude or enough in the present moment.

Therapy can be a sacred place where the true and un-masked parts of yourself can be seen and emotionally held. I help my clients rediscover themselves in a way that they begin to trust in their authentic-self and inner-voice, and to find the safety within themselves to let this true-self take back control of their lives. Part of the process may be in developing or strengthening an inner-voice separate from your inner-critic. Together, we can be with the thoughts, feelings, and experiences that have impacted your sense of self, get to understand where they come from and how they were developed, and work towards developing a stronger and more secure sense of self.

Finding the right therapist for you is meaningful and essential. I hope to be the right fit for you.
