It’s Therapist Thursday!!
Meet Jade Nesbitt, LCSW-C.
Jade Marie Nesbitt, LCSW-C, is a licensed clinical social worker with a Master’s in Social Work from Morgan State University. As a 2018–2019 Annie E. Casey Foundation–Morgan State Urban Social Work Scholar, she has a strong foundation in community-based therapeutic interventions, with prior research exploring the impact of alternative therapies and the barriers to medication adherence among adults aged 45+ living with HIV.
Ms. Nesbitt provides therapy to adult women and transitional-age youth, offering a therapeutic space that is affirming, collaborative, and grounded in cultural humility. Her clinical approach is rooted in Afrocentric perspectives and integrates evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), to support clients navigating anxiety, depression, identity development, and life transitions.
In addition to her clinical work, Ms. Nesbitt is passionate about disability justice and advancing equitable access in higher education for individuals of all abilities. She also brings a global lens to her practice through her involvement with STEAM Abroad Inc., having engaged in international service and education in Guatemala, El Salvador, South America, and Spain—experiences that enhance her culturally responsive care.
Outside of her clinical role, Ms. Nesbitt finds restoration in nature, enjoys transforming spaces, experimenting with new cuisines, and spending quality time with her dog.
