In sessions she leans toward collaborative goal-setting and practical skills. That may include working on unhelpful thinking, building coping routines, or using brief, solution-oriented tasks between meetings. She encourages clear steps you can try and then reviews what helps.

Approaches used in remote sessions
Jacqueline commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing in her work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression. Motivational Interviewing helps clarify values and increase motivation for change, useful for goals like improving eating habits or making workplace changes.She treats the choice of approach as collaborative. The therapist will ask about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before, then suggest methods to try. Together they adjust the plan based on what feels most useful and practical for the client.
Confirm the available session formats before booking so you know how meetings will take place. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or medical appointments and can shorten commute time. If a shorter check-in or less bandwidth is needed, discuss options with the therapist when scheduling to find a format that works with daily life.
