Who is Dr. Jacquelin Darby?
Owner of The Unconscious Shift
I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist (Maryland, Virginia, and Washington DC). I am also a Certified Group Psychotherapist which indicates that I have a specialty in group therapy and group dynamics.
I received my Psy.D. from the American School of Professional Psychology 's Clinical Psychology program. I completed my Post-Doctoral Fellowship at American University Counseling Center and completed my APA-accredited internship at Howard University Counseling Services. I provide individual and group psychotherapy for young adults. My clinical special interests include: substance use issues, body image concerns (specifically the effects of colorism), effects of systemic oppression on individuals, group therapy, and interpersonal trauma. I works from an integrative model grounded in psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral therapies.
I have worked in an array of settings including college counseling centers, in-patient drug rehabilitation facilities, and local county jails. I have been featured on local radio shows, podcasts, and agency panel discussions. I provide workshops and lectures on topics related to multiculturalism and therapy. I am a contributing editor of the textbook, Black Millennials: Identity, Ambition, and Activism. The book was published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishing Company.
Currently, I serve as a the Assistant Director of Outreach and Consultation at American University Counseling Center located in Washington DC. In addition to providing mental health services to college students, I serve as an adjunct faculty member for Purdue University Global Campus.
