Approaches to Healing and Online Support

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns and replace them with more constructive ways of thinking and behaving; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance of thoughts and feelings, which can reduce rumination and improve emotion regulation.

Trauma-Focused Therapy centers on understanding and processing traumatic experiences to reduce their ongoing impact, using strategies tailored to a person’s history and readiness to work through difficult memories and reactions. Jackie uses these approaches to address symptoms of PTSD, trauma and abuse, anxiety, and related challenges, adapting techniques to each individual’s needs.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Jackie collaborates with clients to determine which methods best match their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, adjusting the plan as progress is made. This collaborative process helps ensure therapy feels relevant and manageable.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility by allowing sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, accommodate different communication styles, and maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are difficult. Licensed professionals can provide effective support through these modalities, helping clients work toward their goals from a location that works for them.
