Getting to know Jacqueline Beard-Cathey

Hi there, I'm Jacqueline! I am an LCSW with an extensive clinical service and social work provider history in the K-12 educational setting and inpatient and outpatient mental health settings. My focus areas of practice have been that of children and adolescents, families, and adult females. My approach My therapeutic approach is one where I walk alongside my clients, supporting their growth as they identify their needs/challenges, explore solutions, embrace change, in becoming their best self-ever. With a Systems and Client Centered historical framework, I also incorporate CBT, DBT, and Solution Focus therapeutic interventions along with others, as appropriate, in meeting the clinical needs of my clients. My approach also embodies total wellness therapeutic interventions. My focus My clientele consists of children, adolescents, families, and adult females with presenting concerns such as anxiety, depression, and parent-child relationship challenges. My communication style Establishing rapport is important in all clinical settings, but it is extremely important in a virtual setting. I would present in a warm and inclusive manner, leaning in as much as possible to appear present and engaged in their therapeutic process. My journey to mental healthcare Growing up in a North Philadelphia housing project, I experienced the support of having a social service agency located in my building. It exposed me to the field of social work. Upon graduating from the University of Georgia’s MSW program, with a concentration in family and children services, and internships in mental health agencies and school settings, I sought employment over the years in both settings. I believe that each client is their own change agent and best advocate. My goals for you I encourage input from the client in setting goals. Their buy-in is key to goal completion. I will lend support around reframing their individual goal to develop their clinical goal.
