Jacqueline Caso (she/her) earned a master’s degree in social work from Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, along with a certificate in Violence Against Women and Children. She earned her undergraduate degree through the City University of New York’s Baccalaureate for Unique and Interdisciplinary Studies program in which she designed her own major in Sexuality & Gender and drew from coursework in psychology, sociology, anthropology and women’s studies. Prior to joining Ellenhorn, Jacqueline provided crisis intervention, counseling and advocacy services to LGBTQ+ and HIV-affected survivors of violence, as well as homeless queer and trans adolescents. She also worked in a private mental-health practice with clients who received transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for the treatment of major depressive disorder, bipolar disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder, and volunteered at NYC Health + Hospitals/Bellevue and NYU Langone Health as an emergency-department advocate for survivors of sexual assault and domestic violence.

Jacqueline employs an empathetic, trauma-informed and sex-positive approach to client engagement and intervention. She believes in working collaboratively with clients in order to explore healing and growth that will empower them to live freely and authentically. Jacqueline is especially dedicated to creating a safe and affirming space for members of the LGBTQIA, poly/CNM, kink and sex-worker communities.
