Background and approach
In sessions she combines client-centered listening with evidence-informed techniques. That can look like skill practice for emotions, focused problem-solving, or short assignments to try between visits. She helps people break big worries into smaller steps they can act on.

Practical approaches for online care
Jacquetta often blends client-centered work with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT gives clear steps and short practices aimed at easing anxiety, managing mood, and improving daily routines.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy strategies to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. DBT tools can be useful when emotions feel overwhelming or relationships are strained. Together these approaches are chosen based on each person's needs and goals, and she will work collaboratively to find what fits best.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video visits allow face-to-face conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit brief check-ins, homework review, or people who prefer written exchanges. These options help fit therapy into work, school, parenting, or other busy schedules.
