Online support options
Approaches that guide online sessions
Jacqueline frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy along with client-centered work to guide online care. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of thinking and acting to reduce anxiety or depression. Dialectical Behavior Therapy focuses on building skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal communication. Client-centered work prioritizes the person’s own goals and experience and emphasizes listening and collaboration.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jacqueline will talk with each person about goals, daily challenges, and what feels most useful. Together they choose or mix methods that match needs and preferences, adjusting as progress and situations change.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into a busy life. Video works well for deeper conversations and seeing nonverbal cues, while phone calls can be simpler when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter check-ins, quick skill practice, or flexible communication between scheduled sessions. These options help people keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or health needs.
