Jacqueline Thomas , LPC

Jacqueline Thomas is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Tennessee who helps people facing stress, anxiety, sleep problems, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and addictive behaviors. She also supports people dealing with family strain, grief, bipolar mood concerns, and challenges tied to life purpose or isolation.

Her style is straightforward and person-centered. Sessions focus on practical skills and honest conversation. Jacqueline listens, helps clients notice unhelpful patterns, and works with them to try new ways of coping.

She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to help people reframe thoughts and act in line with their values. Mindfulness exercises and DBT skills are offered when clients need emotion regulation or grounding techniques.

Across eight years of practice she has worked with people from varied backgrounds, including veterans and those juggling caregiver stress. That experience informs her approach to blended family issues, codependency, communication problems, and financial stressors.

Jacqueline aims to make therapy practical. Early sessions often focus on immediate coping strategies for sleep, anxiety, or strong emotions. Later work may shift to values, relationships, and long-term patterns that get in the way of feeling steady and purposeful.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, encourages people to notice unhelpful thoughts without getting stuck in them and to take small actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, low mood, and questions about life purpose.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It teaches clear strategies to change thinking patterns and behaviors that contribute to anxiety, sleep problems, depression, and anger.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, try approaches that fit those goals, and adjust as progress or challenges arise. That way treatment stays practical and focused on what matters most to the client.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions are useful for deeper conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a quieter voice check-in fits a break at work. Live chat and messaging are helpful for short check-ins, skill coaching between meetings, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life while using the approaches described above.
