✨Therapist Spotlight ✨Meet Jackie Prince MSW, LSW
Jackie Prince, LSW is a licensed social worker who has been working in the human services and behavioral health field since 2020. She works with children, adolescents, adults, and families and is committed to creating a space where people feel safe, supported, and at ease.
Jackie has a strong focus on trauma work and is EMDR trained. Her approach is trauma- informed and strengths-based, drawing from EMDR, cognitive and mindfulness-based strategies, and somatic-informed techniques. She believes therapy works best when it feels collaborative, flexible, and respectful of each person’s pace.
Jackie strives to offer a warm, welcoming, and nonjudgmental environment where clients of all ages can feel comfortable being themselves. She understands that starting therapy can feel intimidating, especially for those who have experienced trauma, and she takes care to move at a pace that feels safe and manageable.
Jackie believes that healing is possible, even when things feel heavy or unclear. Her goal is to help clients build resilience, self-understanding, and a stronger connection to themselves while feeling supported along the way.

✨Therapist Spotlight ✨ Meet Rich Ford, CPSS, LAPC
Rich is a mental health professional who has spent over 20 years helping people navigate life’s challenges and is excited to bring that experience into a dedicated counseling role. His career has taken him from leading large behavioral health teams to sitting one-on-one with individuals and families, always with the same goal: to listen without judgment, offer practical tools, and create a space where people feel truly heard.

He has worked in settings ranging from residential treatment centers to community programs and medical clinics, supporting people through trauma, chronic illness, recovery, and major life transitions. Along the way, he has learned that real change happens when we focus on strengths, build trust, and collaborate as partners in the healing process.

Rich’s training and practice include trauma-informed care, working with both perpetrators and survivors of domestic violence, and crisis intervention. He also has experience in addressing deviant sexual behavioral problems, is trained in cognitive behavioral therapy, brief solution-focused therapy, motivational interviewing, and peer support supervision. But more than anything, he brings compassion, curiosity, and a belief that everyone has the capacity to grow.

Many of us extend patience, empathy, and understanding to others—but struggle to give the same to ourselves. Self-compassion isn’t self-indulgent. It’s a key part of healing.

It’s okay to pause.
It’s okay to rest.
It’s okay to take things one small step at a time.

You don’t have to push through every moment. Slowing down is not a weakness — it’s a way of caring for yourself. Healing happens gently, in your own time.

Every new week is another chance to grow, to practice grace with yourself, and to move one step closer to balance. Healing takes time—and that’s okay.

What does a strengths-based, holistic approach mean?
At Avers & Biddle Counseling Associates, our approach is simple: we see all of you—your mind, body, relationships, and even your spiritual side. We don’t just focus on what’s not working—we help you rediscover your strengths and build on where you’re already resilient.

We draw on proven therapies like CBT, mindfulness practices, psychodynamic therapy, and trauma-informed care—not to overwhelm, but to meet you where you are and work together from there. Collaboration is where the real healing starts.
