Online support options
Approach-driven online therapy that fits your life
Jaclene uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors that reduce distress and improve daily functioning. CBT often focuses on small, doable experiments and practical strategies that can change how someone feels over time.She also draws on acceptance and commitment therapy, which helps people get clearer about what matters to them and take committed actions even when emotions are uncomfortable. This approach can help with anxiety, depression, and major life transitions by linking values to action.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Jaclene treats therapy as a collaboration and will help figure out which methods fit a person's goals, temperament, and day-to-day life. Together they set clear steps and check what is helping as progress unfolds.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different situations. Video calls let people use body language and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat and messaging can provide brief check-ins or ongoing support without a full session, and text options make it easier to have short, frequent contact. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent while fitting it into work, school, caregiving, or busy schedules.
