About Jacqueline
Jacqueline Hendrickson is a licensed clinical social worker with more than three decades of practice in New Jersey. She earned a master’s degree in clinical social work in 1985 and has provided ongoing support to people facing major life stresses since then. Jacqueline focuses on clear, steady help rather than jargon.
She makes starting therapy feel like a manageable next step. Jacqueline offers a calm setting where people can talk through grief, anxiety, depression, and big life changes.
Background and approach
She also helps with relationship and intimacy-related concerns, sleep trouble, parenting strain, career decisions, and low self-esteem. Her experience includes compassion fatigue and postpartum depression, as well as issues that often come later in life such as aging and geriatric concerns. Her work blends several practical approaches.
Client-centered work keeps sessions grounded in each person’s goals. Narrative ideas look at the stories people tell about themselves. Solution-focused elements identify small steps that create change.
Psychodynamic thinking can help uncover patterns that keep repeating. Sessions are offered in English and take place online through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Jacqueline uses these formats to fit therapy into busy lives, whether someone prefers a short check-in or a longer conversation.
Taking the first step can be hard, and Jacqueline aims to make that step straightforward. She helps people set realistic goals, try practical strategies, and build steadier routines over time.
How Jacqueline’s approaches translate to online therapy
Client-centered work focuses on each person’s priorities and pacing. In online sessions this means conversations center on what feels most urgent to the client, and the therapist follows their lead to build trust and clarity.Narrative therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and the roles they play. Online meetings give space to notice recurring themes, reframe unhelpful stories, and try different ways of understanding problems such as grief, low self-worth, or relationship tension.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will help identify which methods fit a person’s needs, goals, and comfort level. This is a collaborative process that can change as progress is made.
Online formats offer practical benefits for many people. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and fuller interactions. Phone sessions can be easier when a quieter line or lower bandwidth is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief check-ins, symptom tracking, or when someone prefers written reflection instead of speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work breaks, caregiving routines, and other busy schedules.
