Background

About Jaclyn Scanlan

My name is Jaclyn ("Jackie") and I am an Independently Licensed Social Worker Supervisor (LISW-S) with the State of Ohio. I graduated from the State University of New York at Buffalo with a masters degree in Social Work with a focus on Mental Health. I have been working with adolescents and youth in a variety of settings since 2002. I have extensive experience working in juvenile corrections with at-risk youth, as well as experience providing therapy in both inpatient and outpatient psychiatric treatment. My passion lies with working with adolescents, as I enjoy helping them find their own sense of empowerment as they bridge into young adulthood. I like to bring my energetic personality and passion for the Social Work profession to the school-based setting. Originally from Upstate New York, I moved out to Ohio in 2006. I live with my husband, two daughters and my dog! In my spare time, I love to cook and explore new places to eat. As a family, we enjoy spending time together at Kings Island and are avid Disney fans! Mindful walks with my dog is when I embrace time for self-care. Work-Life Balance is crucial in this field, and I am grateful for the support my family and coworkers provide to do so.
