About Jacqueline Scolaro

Jacqueline Scolaro, LISW, is a Licensed Independent Social Worker in Ohio with 17 years of experience supporting people through emotional and practical challenges. Her background includes work in a variety of agencies, with a focus on complex trauma, grief, and helping individuals living with disabilities. She works with concerns such as depression, anxiety, grief, social and relationship difficulties, career challenges, personality disorders, and post-traumatic stress disorder.

Her counseling style is gentle, interactive, and grounded in collaboration. Jacqueline emphasizes working side by side with clients to identify strategies and solutions that fit their specific circumstances, rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all approach. She draws from a range of therapy methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), psychotherapy, and equine therapy, while keeping the core of her work centered on attentive listening and genuine engagement.

Jacqueline believes meaningful insights can surface unexpectedly, and that therapy tools can help clients make sense of what they think and feel once those underlying themes come into view. Because each person is unique, she welcomes different ways of processing and expression, which may include approaches like art, journaling, or music. She invites clients to connect and take the next steps of their journey with steady, supportive guidance.

Jacqueline Scolaro integrates approaches that help clients feel heard while also building everyday coping skills. With Client-Centered Therapy, sessions focus on understanding the client’s experience without judgment, creating space to sort through stress, grief, trauma-related concerns, and life transitions at a comfortable pace.
