About Jackie
Jackie Potts-Powell is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 21 years of experience. She creates a grounded, nonjudgmental space where people can slow down and look honestly at who they are. Her work focuses on understanding patterns rather than trying to fix someone on the spot.
She helps people reframe long-held viewpoints and examine life patterns that once protected them but now cause pain. Jackie uses thoughtful, respectful challenges to increase psychological flexibility and open new choices.
How Jackie works
The goal is clearer decision-making about what to keep and what to leave behind. Clients are invited to reflect on the past as a guide instead of a trap. From that place, she supports identifying the next stage of growth and setting practical steps toward change.
That might mean practicing radical acceptance, choosing a new direction, or strengthening boundaries. Jackie often supports people dealing with relationship difficulties, family issues, self-esteem concerns, depression, and anxiety. She also addresses trauma and abuse, grief, parenting strain, anger, career shifts, compassion fatigue, and multicultural concerns.
Her approach includes attention to attachment wounds, abandonment, codependency, communication problems, divorce and separation, infidelity, guilt and shame, feelings of emptiness, and questions about life purpose. Jackie prefers working with adults in their mid-twenties and older who are ready to engage thoughtfully and do reflective work.

Evidence-based approaches and online access
Jackie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people shift perspectives and build workable habits. One common approach she uses focuses on increasing psychological flexibility through reframing and perspective work; this helps with anxiety, depression, and stuck patterns by teaching new ways to respond to old triggers. Another emphasis is attachment-informed work that looks at how early relationships shaped current patterns; this approach helps with abandonment, codependency, communication problems, and intimacy concerns. Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Jackie collaborates with clients to identify which techniques fit their needs and goals. Together they test methods, adjust them, and agree on practical steps that feel manageable for the person in the moment. Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexible options. Video allows fuller interaction and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These formats make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and to maintain continuity during times of change.Start online instead of waiting
