About Jacqueline

Jacqueline Childress is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia with 20 years of experience. She helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, and confidence challenges. Jacqueline approaches each person with respect and a belief that they know their own story best.

She emphasizes practical support and steady guidance. Sessions focus on identifying strengths, setting small goals, and building skills that fit daily life. Jacqueline encourages clients to take manageable steps toward clearer routines, better mood, and stronger relationships.

Background and approach

Her background includes long-term clinical work with people affected by trauma and abuse, as well as intimacy-related concerns and parenting stress. She also addresses career questions, compassion fatigue, bipolar mood issues, and struggles with self-esteem and motivation. Jacqueline pays attention to cultural context and experiences of prejudice or discrimination when relevant.

In therapy she listens first, then helps clients name what matters to them. Conversations often lead to action plans, coping tools, and ways to change unhelpful patterns. She aims to make therapy feel like a practical partnership rather than a lecture.

Clients can expect straightforward language and a focus on usable steps. Jacqueline supports people who want to understand their feelings, reduce impulsivity, and find clearer direction in life. Her approach is steady, collaborative, and focused on real-world change.

How Jacqueline’s Approaches Translate to Online Care

Jacqueline uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and symptom management. One common approach emphasizes building routines, coping skills, and small behavioral changes to reduce anxiety, improve attention, and stabilize mood. This helps people who struggle with impulsivity, ADHD, or stress find clearer daily structure and measurable progress.

Another approach centers on trauma-informed care and processing difficult experiences at a manageable pace. That work helps people affected by abuse, sexual assault, or complex grief by teaching grounding strategies, pacing emotional work, and strengthening personal safety and trust in relationships.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jacqueline will listen to your goals and preferences, then suggest techniques and adjustments. She works together with clients to try methods, track what helps, and change course if something doesn’t fit.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video works well for full conversations and visual cues, phone can be easier when bandwidth is low, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and text messaging suits ongoing reminders or brief touchpoints. These options let people fit therapy into busy lives and keep continuity when travel or work schedules change.
