About
As an African-American female therapist, I want you to know that I offer a warm, non-judgmental space where you're genuinely heard and supported in whatever you're going through.
I am Jacqueline Lloyd, a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor with 21 years of experience in the field. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of supporting individuals through anxiety, depression, trauma, and major life transitions, and I remain deeply committed to fostering growth, resilience, and healing. My goal is to provide a supportive and culturally responsive space where clients feel understood, empowered, and equipped with practical tools to create meaningful and lasting change.
I hold a Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from Southern University A&M College. I draw on approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and person-centered therapy, tailoring each session to meet my clients’ unique needs.
I understand how overwhelming life’s challenges can feel, and I want my clients to know they do not have to face them alone. Whether you are feeling stuck, seeking clarity, or ready for transformation, I am here to walk alongside you with care and compassion as you take the next step toward healing.

Psychologists are mental health professionals that provide psychotherapy services and diagnoses for their clients. They have more research-focused training than most therapists, as they are more medically educated and receive a more general education about therapeutic approaches and theory.
Thriveworks psychologists in Baton Rouge, LA provide standard psychotherapy services, tailoring treatment to each client and their unique concerns. However, they can also provide diagnoses to clients when appropriate, something that therapists and counselors cannot do. Finally, in some states in the U.S., they are allowed to prescribe medication.
Psychological treatment at Thriveworks Baton Rouge is very individualized and specific to each client, which means that the duration of treatment is often varied depending on a client’s condition or disorder, the state of their symptoms, and their specific goals.
While ups and downs are normal, there are many instances where you may need the help of a trained professional to make it through. This is where clinical psychologists come in.
