About Dr. Jacqueline Belanger
My Approach is Different. That's Why It Works.
I'm a licensed psychologist with 22 years of clinical experience. I bring a compassionate and competent approach to Veteran disability exams that allows me to identify what others miss.
While most VA examiners take a superficial "check-the-box" approach, I dig deeper. My clinical expertise helps me ask the right questions and document your experiences with the accuracy and validity the VA requires through Independent Medical Exams (IMEs) and Nexus Letters.
I help you get the rating you deserve so you can access the treatment and benefits you've earned.
The VA needs paperwork. You deserve understanding. I provide both.
Denied Claims & Inadequate Ratings?
They are often the result of a critical communication gap: neither you, your examiner, nor your medical records are accurately portraying your reality to the VA.
- The military teaches you to "suck it up" and avoid mentioning mental health issues
- Veterans lose track of what's actually "normal" after years of downplaying symptoms
- Examiners often miss crucial connections or don’t ask the right questions

I bridge that communication gap with thorough exams and clear documentation of your mental health.
I hear when you're minimizing symptoms that are actually significant- I recognize patterns in your experiences because I've seen them in thousands of veterans
- I provide honest assessments that validate your experience while meeting VA standards
