What clients are saying
EXPERIENCE
"Before I began working with Temple, my full-time job was comparing myself to others, then building secret resents as a result. I didn't know how to express my feelings. I grew up with an angry, alcoholic father, and a silent, fearful mother. I struggled with my Blackness, my Queerness, my Neurodivergence. All the ism's! Temple once said to me, "Honey, ain't nobody on this earth can give you anything or take anything away from you. Only the divine Spirit can do that." Then there is Templ's humor. Temple Jackson is funny as hell! Lord, this Woman should be in Mental-Health Stand-Up show. But mostly, Temple is a healer. A gentle Lion. I can see that now. I see it in the freedom I feel from inside myself. It has been 2 years since I graduated from weekly counseling. Every now and then I get a text message from Temple inquiring about my wellness. I think it's her way of reminded me I am cared about and thought of...I can't tell anyone else what they need in order to heal...I will say this though, because I had Temple Jackson as a psychotherapist, I am no longer confused about WHO I AM! Thank you, Ibu Temple."

NO COMPARISON
"I am deeply grateful for the transformative support and guidance I've received from Temple Jackson. Temple has been an unwavering source of strength as I navigate through the complexities of trauma, grief, and identity. In addition to helping me cope and process the loss of my father, Temple's unwavering support has been instrumental in helping me navigate the realities of being a queer Latino individual. Her understanding and affirmation of my identity provided me with a sense of validation and empowerment that I had long yearned for. I cannot overstate the impact Temple has had on my journey towards healing and self-discovery."

Soul-Care
"I found Temple at a time in my life when I was sick and tired of running from myself, but I had no idea what our journey together would entail and how much my life would change over the course of a year. My only criteria back then was that my therapist be female and from a minority background. Temple checked those boxes and then some. It’s been 4 years now since our first session. while I’m a work always in progress and newfound layers to, I can truly say I am proud of the person I’ve become. I have discovered how to feel emotions again. I found peace within my thoughts and learned that I deserve this exceptional life." I am both in a loving relationasip with myself and with my devoted partner. Thank you Temple.
