Getting to know Jacqueline Kurta

I am a licensed psychotherapist with 20 years of experience supporting individuals and families through times of growth, challenge, and transition. I hold a Doctorate in Psychology (PsyD) and am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), integrating clinical expertise with a warm, compassionate approach to care. My work emphasizes collaboration, resilience, and the unique strengths each client brings into therapy. Drawing from evidence-based modalities—including cognitive-behavioral, family systems, and mindfulness-informed practices—I help clients navigate challenges such as: Anxiety, depression, and stress management; Substance Use and other addictive behaviors; College student and young adult mental health. Collaborative, strengths-based, culturally responsive, and harm reduction approach tailored to each individual’s needs. I have extensive experience in higher education mental health, community behavioral health systems, and private practice settings. I am dedicated to creating a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard and empowered to explore change at their own pace. I create a collaborative and non-judgmental environment in which I offer opportunities to explore your experiences as an empathetic partner and fellow traveler on your journey. My journey into therapy began with a deep curiosity about human resilience and the desire to help others find strength through life’s hardest challenges. Early in my clinical training, I had the opportunity to work with college-age individuals experiencing substance use disorders and other addictive behaviors. This experience showed me the powerful role therapy can play in recovery and solidified my commitment to supporting others through their healing journeys. I continue to find deep connections with young adults and families. I approach therapy as a fellow traveler on your journey. We will work together to identify and set goals that matter to you.
