About Jacqueline
Jacqueline "Jackie" Pattison is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Kansas who helps people manage anxiety, stress, depression, and relationship concerns. She aims to listen to each person's story and create practical steps forward. Jackie invites clients to talk about where they have been and where they want to go.
Jackie believes answers live inside each person. She uses conversation, education, and concrete tools so clients can try new ways of coping.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on understanding patterns, building skills, and making a simple plan to move forward. Her approach combines attachment-based ideas, client-centered listening, and cognitive behavioral techniques. That means she pays attention to how relationships shape feelings, follows the client's lead, and looks for thoughts and behaviors to adjust.
Jackie also draws on mindfulness practices and practical communication methods from the Gottman approach when relationships are a concern. She uses short exercises and focused questions rather than long lectures, and she helps clients practice skills between sessions. With 17 years of experience, Jackie works from Kansas and supports people through grief, trauma, caregiving stress, career transitions, and intimacy struggles.
She frames therapy as teamwork and helps people set goals that fit daily life. People who want clear next steps and a respectful, down-to-earth counselor often do well with her style. Jackie encourages steady progress through small, manageable changes.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships affect feelings and behavior. In sessions this can help people understand patterns around trust, closeness, and abandonment-related fears. Client-Centered Therapy centers on the person's experience and choices; the therapist listens closely and follows the client's lead to build understanding and self-direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns and reduce anxiety.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and day-to-day challenges, then try methods that fit the person. This collaborative process often blends elements from different approaches to match what helps most.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions let people use visual cues for relationship work and skill practice, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is limited, live chat supports quicker check-ins, and messaging is helpful for short reflections between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life while continuing consistent progress.
