After a decade of marriage, Jacquie and her husband began a long 2-year journey of healing childhood traumas and recovering from addiction and codependency in their marriage. She returned to school in 2015 and graduated in 2018 with a Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy and Counseling from Reformed Theological Seminary. She has since worked in a church environment and in a residential treatment center. She is now in private practice in Ridgeland, Mississippi. She specializes in treating trauma and codependency recovery. She has received extensive training and is certified in Internal Family Systems (IFS), which is her preferred approach to trauma treatment. While IFS is her primary modality, she has been trained in many other approaches and often integrates them with IFS. Her supplemental approaches include Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Acceptance and Integration Training (AAIT), brainspotting, mindfulness and experiential methods. She has authored multiple educational curriculums for codependency, trauma, and IFS instruction. She is also a codependency coach and has completed the ICF Approved Coaching Specific Training Hours (ACSTH) through MMS Worldwide Institute. Jacquie’s husband, John, is still a pilot but is also actively pursuing a master’s degree in drug and alcohol counseling. Together they hope to help others move beyond sobriety and into the deeper healing of family recovery that they have discovered for themselves. John and Jacquie have been married for almost 20 years and have two well-adjusted teenagers, Jack and Gracie, and a Pomeranian named Cosmo.
