ROBERTA JACKSON LCSW
Let's Make Change Together
Roberta Jackson, LCSW | Virtual Therapist in New York
Do you ever feel like you’re always there for everyone else but struggle to take care of yourself? Ever get a bit annoyed when you’re always checking in on others, but it feels like no one checks in on you? Do you find yourself procrastinating when it comes to following through on personal goals but when it comes to helping others or your job you have the ability to effortlessly multitask? You might be a people pleaser. I want to help you shift all that love and care you give to others and make sure you’re giving more of it to yourself.
It’s overwhelming trying your best to be liked and loved by others who don’t always reciprocate. Many of us never really learned how to love ourselves, maybe we learned at a young age that love came with conditions, or those who raised us didn’t know how to love themselves so how could they teach you? Now you’re an adult who wants to love themselves more but don’t know how.
My work focuses on helping people pleasers redirect their attention towards self-care, self-love, and pursuing their interests. I use a mix of clinical interventions, humor and just being my authentic self to guide you on how to prioritize your needs, set healthy boundaries, and achieve personal goals.
My individual caseload is currently full. Now forming: Daughters Unite, a virtual support group for women and femmes in New York State.

Testimonials
Please read what current and former clients say about working with me.
Roberta Jackson repaired my relationship with my family, and friends, by coaching me on how to forgive others and set healthy boundaries. She made it safe for me to vent, and was able to handle my anger and grief, both sensical and nonsensical. I felt like she understood me, and her approaches worked when I listened and did them... so I kept listening!
I feel very lucky to know Roberta's perspective, and even luckier to have my family and friends texting me and calling me again. It means the world to me! If you want any advice before you meet with her, mine is to be embarrassingly honest up front and trust her.
Thank you Roberta!!!
Former Client
“Roberta is kind and insightful. I genuinely enjoy talking with her each week, and she gives me tools and goals to work through any problem I bring to our sessions.”
Former Client
"Roberta highkey saved my life! We began our sessions during a very difficult period of my life, and she assisted me with gaining the tools to navigate through it all. I am forever grateful for her."
Former Client
I have been a client of Roberta Jackson for over 2.5 years, and have grown so much thanks to her counsel. When I came to Roberta with the intention to re-establish my relationship with alcohol, I was nervous to deep dive into this subject. From our very first session, she has met me with patience and grace, and has provided actionable steps, tips, and treatment plans that have helped me become the best version of myself to date! I'm happy to report that I am now sober, and have so many more skills to cope with life's struggles, all thanks to Roberta's guidance! 10/10 would recommend, Roberta is the G.O.A.T!

Therapy from the comfort of your own home
I only provide telehealth services, so I don’t mind bonnets, durags, foam rollers, or nosey pets in session. My cat may make an appearance herself. You missed lunch and the session time is the only time you can have a snack? No problem, no good work was ever done while hungry.
