About Jacqueline

Jacqueline D'Arrigo is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on practical, down-to-earth support for family and parenting concerns. She uses straightforward conversation to help people manage addictions, relationship tensions, and changes in family life. Her style is respectful and compassionate, and she tailors sessions to each person’s situation.

With ten years of experience as an LPC, Jacqueline draws on several approaches to fit different needs. She combines client-centered work with tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to help people shift thoughts and habits.

Background and approach

Motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques are used when clients want clear steps and manageable goals. Sessions often focus on everyday problems like communication breakdowns, control issues, and dealing with separation or divorce. She also addresses emotional topics such as guilt, shame, isolation, and social anxiety.

Practical skills and small changes are emphasized over abstract theory. Jacqueline aims to make therapy a collaborative process. She listens first, then helps set a plan that feels doable.

That plan can include strategies for self-care, better parenting routines, or ways to reduce impulsive behaviors. People who choose her can expect simple language and concrete tools. The goal is to help clients regain a sense of direction and feel more capable in family life.

Jacqueline encourages steady progress and supports each step forward.

Practical therapeutic approaches for online family and parenting support

Client-centered therapy means sessions are led by the client's needs. The therapist listens closely and adapts conversation to what matters most, making it useful for family and parenting topics. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors. It is useful when patterns like impulsivity, guilt, or social anxiety interfere with daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will help determine which methods fit the client's goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process that may combine styles so the plan fits each family's situation.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make attendance easier. These options allow for flexible scheduling around busy family routines and for using tools between sessions. Many people appreciate being able to choose how they connect while still working toward clear, practical changes.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Motivational Interviewing

A way of working through mixed feelings about change without being pushed. The therapist helps you weigh things up and find your own reasons, which often makes a difficult decision feel less stuck.
