She explains strategies in straightforward terms and focuses on skills people can use between sessions. Feedback and problem-solving are commonly part of the work.
Her way of working tends to be collaborative and skill-oriented. People looking to reduce reactivity, lower persistent worry, or address substance use will find concrete tools and behavior-focused practice. Sessions typically cover goal setting, coping strategies, and tracking progress over time.

How Jacqueline blends therapy approaches for online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that reflect their values. It can be useful for persistent anger and for living with strong emotions without being controlled by them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and offers practical exercises to change reactions and reduce reactivity. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) brings concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving communication, which can help with anger and relationship strain.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. Early sessions often include small experiments and skill practice so clients can see what helps most.
