Dr Jackson is a caring, intelligent and talented psychiatrist. She listens attentively, her questions are on-point, and she comes across as empathetic and non-judgmental.
I have tried many different psychiatrists up until this point and Dr Jackson is the one I have felt most comfortable trusting and opening up to. While others have come across as out of touch with the times, condescending, too quick to stereotype/ judge/ label based entirely on first impressions, etc, Dr Jackson has been a breath of fresh air. Her quiet focus is intense yet unintimidating, and her ability to dig deeper and go beyond face value to find the issues that truly matter is astonishing. She is a skilled analyst, which is an incredibly valuable trait in a psychiatrist, and a rare find nowadays.
Her Miami Midtown office is quiet and beautiful; the location discreet yet extremely convenient. I have been seeing Dr Jackson on a regular basis since our first appointment in June 2014, and even after moving to a different state I continue to see her online.
I feel truly lucky to have found Dr Jackson, and have benefited enormously from her wisdom and expertise. I hope to continue seeing her for many, many years to come.

Dr. Jackson was wonderful...she was super nice, a good listener, and was spot on with the root of what was going on in my life. She thoroughly explained the treatment she was recommending, and let me know I could call anytime with questions or concerns until our next appointment. I would highly recommend her!

Incredibly stunning office! I was definitely not expecting this kind of accommodation. Any fears I had about seeing a psychiatrist were quickly dispelled after meeting Dr. Jackson along with her breathe taking office. To top it off she had all the credentials backing her up.

Dr. Jackson is one of the most caring, sincere, and empathetic psychiatrists I have ever seen. I instantly jived with her as she is genuinely concerned for the welfare of her patients. I had to "shop around", for a Dr. who was a good fit and I could not believe my luck when I found her.
