Jackie Smuckler, MA, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist
Educational and Professional Background
As a South Bay native and now Hermosa Beach Therapist, I received my Undergraduate degree from San Diego State University and my Masters degree in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Trauma from Antioch University, Los Angeles.
My professional experience as a therapist includes working with adolescents, couples and adults dealing with depression, anxiety, grief & loss, terminal/chronic illness, family conflict, relationship issues, life transition and pet loss grief. In conjunction to my time in private practice, I work at Cancer Support Community Redondo Beach, providing group therapy to cancer patients and their loved ones.
Prior to this, I spent 8 years working in online advertising, giving me a deep understanding of the fast-paced, work/life balance people often struggle with.
My fee starts at $250 per 50-minute session. I offer a 15-minute free phone consultation to make sure we're a good fit. I understand financial resources are different for everyone so I offer a sliding scale to accommodate clients individual needs. I do not take insurance but can supply a super bill at the end of each month for clients to bill their insurance for a reimbursement if there's coverage.
