Jacqueline LaGrassa

Therapy should be a place where people can feel comfortable expressing themselves and exploring their experiences. I take a strengths based approach to meet clients where they are in the moment and help empower them to find solutions. My goal is to make therapy accessible, collaborative, and meaningful for all of my clients.

It is important for me to really get to know my clients. I want to know your priorities, goals, and what brings you to therapy. I am direct and transparent, but also utilize humor and warmth to create a safe space. Therapy should be a place where people can feel comfortable expressing themselves and exploring their experiences. I am integrative in my clinical approach and utilize multiple therapeutic modalities, including mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, acceptance based techniques, and family systems therapy.

I provide support and psychotherapy to those who are experiencing challenges around a wide variety of issues. I am a collaborative, warm, and passionate therapist who is dedicated to understanding the goals of my clients. When not seeing clients in private practice, I work at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center with patients and families throughout their cancer experience. I received my degree in clinical social work from Columbia University and have completed additional trainings in Palliative and End of Life Care, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Family Therapy.
