Jacqueline Robertson, LMFT & Psychedelic-Assisted Therapist
From a young age, Jacqueline felt a quiet but persistent pull toward life’s deeper questions—the nature of suffering, the strength of the human spirit, and the possibility of healing through adversity. Her personal experiences with early loss and significant life transitions shaped her soul path.
With over 17 years of experience, Jacqueline has worked with individuals and groups across a variety of settings including private practice, hospitals, residential treatment centers, corporate wellness programs, nonprofits, and international teaching environments. She offers a trauma-informed, integrative, and holistic approach to therapy—grounded in the understanding that healing is relational, layered, and deeply personal.
Jacqueline’s work is informed by the timeless power of myth and story. She draws inspiration from archetypal narratives such as the descent of Persephone into the underworld and Inanna’s passage through the gates of the Great Below. These stories mirror the emotional landscapes her clients often move through—periods of uncertainty, transformation, and ultimately, return with greater self-awareness. In this way, therapy becomes a modern rite of passage: a process of reclaiming lost parts of the self and reconnecting with inner wisdom.
Jacqueline specializes in anxiety, women’s mental health, self-esteem, trauma, grief and loss, relationship issues, nervous system regulation, and psychedelic preparation and integration. Her training and expertise includes Somatic Psychotherapy, Attachment-Based EMDR, Hakomi Mindfulness, Jungian Psychology, Native American Medicine teachings, Ecopsychology, Psychedelic-Assisted Psychotherapy, and Holistic Nutrition. She also facilitates women’s retreats, workshops.
Before becoming a therapist, Jacqueline explored creative expression through dance, music, and journalism. At 16, she began writing and editing for The Silhouette (McMaster University), serving as a production editor. Her love of storytelling, including the use of myth and personal narrative, continues to inform her work—providing clients with a thoughtful space to explore their experiences and make meaning from their life stories.
She holds an Honors Bachelor’s degree in History, a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University and a certification in psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy from Integrative Psychiatry Institute.
