Ms. Jaqui is very patient and listens to everything I say, she makes me feel very comfortable. I thought it would be difficult for myself to open up. Ms. Jaqui keeps everything very professional which is very important, but also feels like you’re just speaking to a friend and catching up after a while. I would 100% recommend to the better help app.
More about Jaqueline
- 10 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker located in Georgia. I have dual Master's degrees in Social Work and Criminology from Florida State University. I moved to Atlanta three years ago and enjoy looking for new places to eat (especially for dessert).
I have been a therapist for 10 years and my counseling style is providing a non-judgmental and conversational atmosphere with an open and honest dialogue. I use a combination of Narrative, Cognitive Behavioral, Dialectical Behavioral, or Trauma-Focused therapy strategies, depending on which fits the client's needs. I also like to use humor, Art Therapy, or Mindfulness incorporated activities. I have provided counseling to clients experiencing depression, anxiety, self-harm, LGBTQIA+ challenges, relationship issues, or were involved in the criminal justice system.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
