About Jaquiline
Jaquiline "Jaqui" Clarke is an AASW social worker who draws on practical approaches to help people manage stress and anxiety. She offers warm, straightforward counselling and uses clear, everyday language. Jaqui commonly combines acceptance and commitment ideas with motivational techniques to support people through difficult moments.
Jaqui began with a Bachelor of Education (Primary) and later completed a Master of Social Work (Qualifying) in 2018 at Federation University. She has around five years counted since qualifying in social work and nearly ten years working in mental health roles overall.
Background and approach
That background means she is familiar with common concerns such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder and complex presentations across mild to more serious symptoms. Her practice includes helping people with addictions, workplace stress, relationship worries and major life changes. Jaqui also supports people facing parenting strain, compassion fatigue and sleep or eating difficulties.
She brings a strength-based perspective and offers psychoeducation when that is useful for understanding wellbeing topics. Jaqui has experience working in community mental health and from January 2025 began providing online counselling for a domestic violence service. Her approach is honest and kind; she invites feedback and adjusts how sessions run to make them helpful.
Sessions aim to be collaborative, practical and geared to each person’s goals. She works in English and is based in Australia. Jaqui is happy to discuss which session format suits individual needs and to tailor strategies so people can use them between sessions.
How Jaqui’s approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to values-based actions. It is useful for anxiety, stress and making behaviour changes. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel heard and can find their own answers; this suits those needing a non-judgemental space. Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus, which helps with rumination, sleep problems and anxiety.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jaqui will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest ways to combine methods that feel useful. She welcomes feedback and adapts how sessions run so the work fits the individual rather than forcing a single method.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make counselling more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good shorter check-in or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer typing and want brief, timely support between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy around work, family or other commitments.
