Adult Anxiety & Depression Therapy

Make space to feel like yourself.

Warm, collaborative therapy with Jackie Franciscus, LPC, in Princeton, NJ.

You don’t need to have everything figured out before you reach out. Therapy offers space to talk openly, understand what feels difficult, and work toward changes that matter to you.

Meet Jackie

Hi, I’m Jackie. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and the founder and Clinical Director of Wishing Well Therapy. I help adults navigate anxiety, depression, stress, and the life transitions that can leave you feeling uncertain or disconnected from yourself.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in compassion. Together, we’ll explore what’s beneath the worry or low mood, build on your strengths, and develop coping tools that fit your everyday life. There is room here for both feeling heard and working toward meaningful change.

I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from New York University and my Master of Education in Counseling Psychology from Rutgers University. My work includes supporting young adults, women, and mothers through relationships, self-esteem, career uncertainty, and changing roles.

Support for What Life Feels Like Now

  • Anxiety, persistent worry, and overwhelming thoughts

  • Depression, low mood, and feeling disconnected

  • Self-doubt and changes in confidence

  • Work, relationships, and major life transitions

  • The emotional demands of motherhood and caring for others

  • Building coping skills and understanding unhelpful patterns

A Collaborative Path Forward

We’ll talk about what you hope to change and what feeling better would mean in your life. That might include responding differently to worry, reconnecting with meaningful activities, or finding more confidence in your decisions. Your needs and goals will guide our work together.
