About Donald
Donald Lee Jackson Jr is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with ten years of practice. He works with people facing anxiety, depression, stress, grief, and relationship concerns. He also helps those coping with life changes, addictions, and issues related to intimacy and self-esteem.
He uses a mix of practical approaches in therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and client-centered methods guide his work.
How Donald works
Sessions focus on clear tools and steps that people can use between meetings. Donald draws on earlier work in school counseling to understand how life roles and responsibilities shape mental health. That experience informs how he talks about parenting, fatherhood issues, and career stress.
He aims to make therapy useful for everyday life demands. In sessions he emphasizes calm, nonjudgmental conversation. He helps people notice patterns and blind spots that get in the way.
Together they build small, doable changes rather than expecting sudden fixes. Donald also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, attachment concerns, infertility and fertility struggles, and first responder stress. He is comfortable addressing LGBTQ topics and challenges tied to family of origin, divorce, or codependency.
He offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. His credentials are listed as LPC and LCMHC and he practices from Georgia.

Online support options
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them drive every choice. It focuses on values and small actions that move someone toward what matters, which can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It uses practical exercises and homework to shift thinking and daily habits, which can ease symptoms of anxiety, depression, and anger.
Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes a calm, nonjudgmental relationship. The therapist follows the person’s lead and provides empathy to help them discover solutions and build self-understanding.
Finding the right approach is usually collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they adjust methods over time to match progress and changing needs.
Online sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make therapy more flexible. Video allows face-to-face conversation when bandwidth permits. Phone sessions can work when someone needs to keep bandwidth low or wants not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging offer brief check-ins, quick coping strategies, or support between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy into work, school, or family schedules while keeping focus on practical steps and progress.
