About Jacqueline
Jacqueline Childress is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Georgia with 20 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns, depression, stress, anxiety, parenting strain, and issues that affect self-esteem and motivation.
She frames the client as the expert in their own story and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions focus on practical steps people can use to manage difficult feelings and improve day-to-day relationships. Jacqueline aims for clear, manageable goals and small changes that add up over time.
Her work often addresses grief, relationship struggles, mood disorders such as bipolar, and the effects of prejudice or multicultural stress. She also supports people navigating adoption and foster care questions, attachment concerns, impulsivity, and career or life-purpose questions.
Jacqueline uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to the concerns presented. Conversations tend to be straightforward and focused on problem-solving, increasing coping skills, and improving emotional regulation. She draws on her training as an LPC to guide interventions without assuming any single method fits every person.
Clients can expect sessions that look at patterns in behavior and relationships, plus concrete tools for managing anxiety, anger, and low mood. The aim is to help people make daily changes that reduce distress and increase functioning, including in parenting and intimate relationships.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Jacqueline draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address trauma and mood concerns. One common approach focuses on skills for managing strong emotions and reducing impulsive reactions. It teaches concrete exercises for grounding, breathing, and interrupting automatic behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, anger, and mood swings.Another approach targets patterns in relationships and intimacy. It looks at repeated ways of relating that cause conflict or distance, and introduces small behavioral experiments to change those patterns. This can help with intimacy-related issues, jealousy, and attachment concerns.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jacqueline works with each person to identify the goals and preferences that matter most, then adjusts the techniques used over time. The first few sessions are often a time to try methods and pick what fits best.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, since the biography did not list specific delivery methods. Online work can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy day, shorten travel time, and allow for brief check-ins when a full session is not needed. It also lets people use techniques at home and report back on how they went, which helps shape the next steps.
