Therapeutic Approaches and How Online Sessions Can Help

Jacqueline draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help clients make practical changes and build coping skills. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and developing alternative strategies to reduce anxiety, depression, and problematic habits. DBT emphasizes emotional regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, and distress tolerance to help people manage intense emotions and improve relationships.

She also integrates attachment-based perspectives when relevant, exploring how early relationship patterns influence current connections and helping clients develop more secure ways of relating. Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process - Jacqueline and the client work together to identify goals, test techniques, and adjust methods based on what proves most helpful for the individual.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage with these approaches through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. This range of options makes it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable. Licensed professionals can adapt evidence-informed techniques to virtual formats so clients can practice skills and track progress from wherever they are.
