Dr. Towanda Jackson

Dr. Towanda Jackson is a native of Washington, DC. She and her husband, Phil, have been married for over 30 years, and they have one adult daughter.

Dr. Jackson believes that having a loving, supportive, and intimate relationship is obtainable. However, commitment to the work is required to maintain it as a lifelong journey. 

Dr. Jackson has supported couples and families in military and civilian communities for over 20 years. Consequently, the framework for the Journey to Intimacy Workshop combines real-life experiences from hundreds of couples and training from various relationship researchers.

Dr. Jackson is a trauma-informed therapist trained in anger management, family violence prevention, couples counseling, cognitive behavior therapy, conflict resolution, and parent and child dynamics. She is also a lifelong learner and has earned a Doctorate of Social Work, a Master of Social Work, and a Master of School Administration.
