Background and approach
Her approach trusts that clients have strengths to draw on while they learn new ways to respond to problems. With 17 years of experience, she blends Attachment-Based, Client-Centered, and Cognitive Behavioral approaches. Jackie draws on mindfulness and relationship-focused techniques when they fit the situation.
She frames work as practical and collaborative rather than one-size-fits-all. Sessions focus on real-life change. That can mean learning ways to manage intense emotions, practicing communication skills, or breaking down unhelpful thinking patterns.
Jackie also helps people facing loss, major life changes, or burnout from caregiving and caregiving roles. Clients can expect a steady, compassionate presence and a focus on actionable steps. Jackie explains tools clearly, checks in about what helps, and adjusts the plan as needs evolve.
She aims to help people move from feeling stuck toward clearer next steps.
How therapeutic approaches work online
Attachment-Based work pays attention to how early bonds shape current relationships; it helps people understand connection patterns and rebuild trust in close relationships. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience, with the therapist listening, reflecting, and following the client's lead to clarify goals and strengths. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve mood.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and try methods that fit. Together they will check what helps and change course when needed so therapy stays relevant and useful.
Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people work visually through emotions and skill practice. Phone sessions can be easier when video isn't needed or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging provide brief check-ins, homework support, or a way to touch base between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy days while using the approaches above to address anxiety, relationships, grief, and life changes.
