About Jacqueline
Jacqueline Childress is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia with 20 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people who are facing trauma and abuse, anxiety, depression, self-esteem struggles, and intimacy-related concerns. Her style centers on listening first and then working with each person to build on their strengths.
Jacqueline frames the therapy relationship as a collaborative place to find practical steps forward. She draws on a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood disorders, ADHD, and stress-related problems.
Background and approach
Jacqueline also supports people dealing with grief, anger, career shifts, and life transitions. Additional focus areas include adoption and foster care, attachment issues, and multicultural concerns. Her approach aims to turn difficult experiences into clearer next steps.
Jacqueline believes clients are the experts on their own lives and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions often involve learning new ways to cope, practicing communication, and making small changes that add up. She frames progress as gradual and practical rather than instant.
Her work includes addressing sexual assault and abuse, sexual dysfunction, and issues around sexuality with sensitivity and respect. Jacqueline also has experience with compassion fatigue and veteran and armed forces issues. She helps clients explore values, reduce symptoms that get in the way, and identify goals for a more satisfying life.

Therapeutic methods and how online sessions fit
Jacqueline uses evidence-based techniques that focus on practical change and emotional healing. One common method she draws on helps people process trauma in small, manageable steps while teaching skills to reduce overwhelming reactions. Another approach emphasizes building coping skills for anxiety and depression through problem-solving and behavioral changes that clients can practice between sessions.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jacqueline works with each person to identify goals, assess what helps, and adjust methods as needed. She encourages open conversation about what feels useful and what does not, so the plan evolves with the client's needs and preferences.
Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options offer flexibility for scheduling and let people work on therapy from home or other convenient places. The variety of formats also supports different communication styles - some people prefer real-time conversation, while others find messaging or chat a better fit for checking in between sessions.
