About Jacqueline
Jacqueline Arcand is an LCSW with ten years of professional experience. She works with adults who are facing stress, anxiety, anger, addiction, relationship strain, grief, and other life changes. Jacqueline practices in Alaska and conducts sessions in English.
She presents therapy in straightforward terms. She treats the person rather than a label and helps people understand what is getting in the way. Sessions focus on practical steps to improve motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. Jacqueline uses a mix of approaches so conversations can move from understanding history to trying new patterns in daily life.
Jacqueline often helps people who have experienced trauma, abuse, or attachment fractures. She also supports those coping with codependency, substance issues, and the fallout from family-of-origin problems. Her work includes addressing intimacy issues, eating concerns, and the complex feelings that come with abandonment or immigration challenges.
Her approach is collaborative and based on the idea that the client is the expert on their own story. She asks direct questions to clarify what is happening, what led to it, and what changes are realistic. Then she and the client try concrete steps to test different ways of responding and feeling.
Jacqueline combines client-centered conversations with methods that explore personal narrative, attachment patterns, and thinking-behavior links. She may use techniques aimed at processing traumatic memories when relevant. Her aim is practical: help people notice patterns, try new responses, and build stronger day-to-day coping skills.
How Jacqueline’s approaches translate to online work
Jacqueline uses client-centered therapy to follow what matters most to the person. That means sessions start with the client’s priorities and use reflective conversation to clarify goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and experimenting with small behavior changes to reduce anger and anxiety. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns that grew from early relationships and helps people try different ways of relating in close situations.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Jacqueline will listen to your needs and goals and then recommend methods to try. She treats this as a collaborative process, checking in and adjusting methods based on what feels useful and realistic for day-to-day life.
