Licensed Clinical Social Worker

I am a clinician at our Boston – Brighton clinic who provides therapy services!

Hi there, I’m Jackie Costello, a Licensed Certified Social Worker who believes therapy should be a collaborative journey led by your goals. I use a person-centered approach, meeting you where you are and walking beside you to empower and support you in building the life you want. I’ve worked in community centers, partial hospitalization/intensive outpatient programs, and higher education with people of all ages. I strive to create a warm, safe space where you feel heard, supported, and motivated to grow—on your terms and at your pace.

I focus on stabilization first, then together we’ll dig deeper using a blend of therapies tailored for you. I combine psychodynamic, narrative, CBT, DBT, and ACT—all through a trauma-informed, non-judgmental lens. I meet you where you are, helping you build self-trust, compassion, and confidence to reach your goals.

Prioritizing your mental health is a brave and important step. I’m honored to get to know you and see the unique strengths you bring to therapy. I look forward to supporting, walking beside, and empowering you on your journey toward growth and healing—together, at your own pace.
