Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Jacqueline integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate behavior. ACT focuses on clarifying values and taking committed actions that align with what matters most, which can aid those experiencing anxiety, depression, or life transitions.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical method that identifies unhelpful thinking patterns and teaches concrete skills to change behaviors and emotional responses. CBT is effective for conditions such as anxiety, mood disorders, and sleep challenges.

Jacqueline emphasizes a client-centered stance that prioritizes each person’s perspective and pace of change. She works collaboratively with clients to determine which approach or combination of techniques best fits their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible options for connecting with a licensed professional through video, phone, live chat, or ongoing text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and access care from different locations while still receiving thoughtful, goal-focused support.
