How her approaches are used in online sessions
Jacqueline combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy in straightforward ways during remote work. CBT focuses on identifying thought patterns and testing practical behavioral changes that reduce anxiety and improve coping. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and following the client’s priorities so goals come from the person rather than being imposed. Mindfulness Therapy teaches noticing thoughts and bodily sensations to reduce reactivity and support emotion regulation. Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Jacqueline collaborates with each client to decide which combination of methods fits their goals, needs, and preferences. She adjusts pacing and practice tasks based on what the client wants to try and what helps between sessions. Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people practice skills in real-life settings and return to issues that come up between sessions without rearranging the day.Areas of expertise
