Therapeutic approaches and online care
Jacqueline commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques and narrative work to help people change unhelpful thinking and reframe difficult experiences. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thought and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety or anger. Narrative Therapy helps people separate themselves from a problem and tell a different, more empowering story about their life.She views finding the right approach as a team effort. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, try methods that fit the situation, and adjust the plan together over time. This collaborative process helps match tools to what actually helps the person move forward.
Online sessions offer flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people use face-to-face interactions without travel. Phone sessions work well for shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging allow ongoing support between sessions and can fit into busy days. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, family, and other commitments while keeping focus on practical steps and progress.
