About Jacqueline

Jacqueline Davis is a licensed counselor with 21 years of experience who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, self-esteem struggles, and motivation problems. She is credentialed as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC). Jacqueline speaks English and offers services to clients in South Carolina and beyond, including international clients.

She writes plainly and aims to make starting therapy less overwhelming for worried parents and individuals.

Background and approach

Jacqueline draws on her own long experience living with depression and anxiety to guide her work. That personal perspective shapes a compassionate style and a practical focus during sessions. She treats each person with respect and sensitivity, and she adapts conversations and plans to fit what a person actually needs.

Sessions emphasize clear goals and steps that feel doable at home. Her approach mixes client-centered listening with structured tools. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot thoughts that keep problems going and to try different behaviors.

She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and mindfulness to manage strong emotions and reduce stress. Motivational Interviewing helps when people want support finding their own path to change. Jacqueline is comfortable addressing a wide range of life concerns including parenting topics, relationship issues, addictions, grief, and career stress.

She also works with challenges such as chronic illness, aging-related worries, postpartum depression, and trauma-related symptoms. Her practice aims to empower clients to make steady, realistic changes. Therapy sessions are offered through video, phone, live chat, or text messaging.

Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling based on availability.

How Jacqueline blends proven methods for online support

Jacqueline commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in her online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes to feel better. It is useful for anxiety, depression, insomnia, and mood challenges. Dialectical Behavior Therapy focuses on skills for managing intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving communication in stressful moments.

She also brings client-centered listening to each session, which means the therapist follows the client’s lead and asks questions to clarify priorities. Choosing the right approach is collaborative - Jacqueline will work with each person to figure out what methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. Therapy plans can shift over time as goals change.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which allow flexibility around work, parenting, and travel. These options let people use brief check-ins or longer sessions depending on what helps most. For many, remote sessions make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing daily life.

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.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
