About Jacqueline
Jacqueline (Jacqui) Taub is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, eating concerns, and self-esteem. She uses practical skills and a collaborative style to help clients build confidence and find motivation. Jacqui presents a calm, respectful presence and aims to make the first steps into therapy feel manageable.
She works from a belief that people know their story best and already hold strengths to draw on.
How Jacqueline works
Sessions emphasize clear goals and small, realistic steps that lead to change. Jacqui blends talk-based work with hands-on techniques that clients can practice between sessions. Her eight years of experience include supporting people through body image struggles, relationship and communication problems, and issues around sexuality and identity.
She also addresses work-related stress, loneliness, jealousy, and questions about life purpose. That range helps her tailor plans to each person's situation. Jacqui draws on several therapy approaches to shape sessions.
She uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen and reflect, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and Solution-Focused Therapy to set concrete goals. Mindfulness and Motivational Interviewing also appear when a gentle, values-based push helps someone move forward. She provides care in English and is licensed in Illinois as an LCSW.
People who are ready to try online therapy can complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions that fit their needs.

How Jacqui blends approach and online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what is most important to the person. It helps when someone needs a compassionate space to sort through feelings and make decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, concentrates on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical exercises to change patterns that cause stress or anxiety. Solution-Focused Therapy narrows in on clear goals and small steps that lead to noticeable progress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, past attempts, and preferences, then suggest approaches to try. This collaborative process means plans can be adjusted as needs change and as certain methods prove more helpful.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into everyday life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a work break. Live chat and text messaging support quick check-ins or ongoing written work between meetings. These options aim to make consistent care more flexible and accessible for different schedules and needs.
