Somatic Psychotherapy with Jacquelyn Richards, MFT — Counselor in City and County of San Francisco, CA

I know Jackie well through our shared somatic psychology training and years as professional colleagues. She has a thorough understanding of mind-body connectedness, and uses that understanding well to help her clients move toward more integrative, empowered ways of being in the world. I recommend Jackie strongly, as I have come to trust her professional rigor and innovative, reliable thinking.

Jackie is an incredibly skilled somatic therapist who I recommend to anyone seeking mind-body healing that goes beyond traditional talk therapy. She has extensive training in mind-body psychotherapy and integrates practices to help her clients gain a deepening understanding of themselves through an awareness of the body and the wisdom it holds. Jackie is extremely grounded, present, caring and attuned to her clients needs and the diversity of their experiences. She embodies mindfulness. If you've tried therapy before but are looking for an approach that helps you go deeper, I can't recommend Jackie enough. She's a truly a gifted healer and a trusted colleague that I refer to (and learn from) often!

Jackie is a highly intelligent and skilled therapist who is deeply committed to her clients healing. Knowing her as a colleague for nearly a decade I have experienced and observed how her tender, grounded presence allows her to connect with others and become their ally on the healing path. Her experience with and appreciation for a holistic mind-body approach and her rootedness in social identity awareness and change work provides a rich and nuanced framework for her clients to grow. I highly recommend working with Jackie for anyone wanting know themselves in a deeper way.

Jackie is wonderful to work with, knowledgable, and gets results. Be sure to check her out if you are looking for yoga or other body practices that heal the mind!
