About Jackie Barnes
At the heart of my professional identity is my dedication to cultivating spaces where individuals feel safe to heal, connect, and grow. As a current Masters in Social Work student at the University of Denver, I am excited to translate the lessons learned in the classroom and during my field internship into tangible change, with an emphasis on child therapy, community behavioral health, and suicide prevention. I bring compassion, warmth, and genuine curiosity to my practice, an approach shaped by my commitment to transformative and accessible mental health care. In my work in suicide prevention with youth, I have witnessed the transformative power of trauma-focused and trauma-informed care. As a mental health practitioner, I hope to collaborate with children and families to provide meaningful support informed by cultural responsiveness and evidence based practice.
