About Jacqueline
Jacqueline "Jackie" Pattison is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Kansas who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, grief, trauma, and parenting strain. She aims to create an easy space to talk about where someone has been and where they want to go.
Background and approach
Jackie approaches each person with respect and plain language. Jackie focuses on finding practical steps that fit daily life.
She uses methods that help people notice patterns, build better communication, and develop coping tools. Sessions often include goal-setting and simple exercises you can try between meetings.
She blends talk therapy with practical strategies. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Attachment-based ideas are used to look at how early connections shape current relationships. The Gottman Method is also part of her approach for addressing relationship dynamics.
Jackie believes the answers are often already inside a person. Her role is to listen, offer evidence-based tools, and help put a plan together.
She emphasizes understanding, compassion, and steady steps toward change. With 17 years of experience, Jackie brings experience without using jargon.
Conversations are straightforward and focused on what matters most to each person. She helps people build coping skills and clearer plans for moving forward.
Therapy sessions may cover coping with life changes, career stress, intimacy issues, codependency, caregiver burden, and other concerns people bring. Jackie welcomes a range of topics and works to make progress one step at a time.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Jacqueline uses a blend of approaches to match what each person needs. The Gottman Method focuses on practical ways to change relationship patterns and improve communication through structured exercises and clear strategies. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds affect current emotions and connections and helps people notice patterns in how they relate to others. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and gives concrete tools to reduce anxiety and improve mood.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jackie will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and day-to-day life, then decide together which methods to try first. Adjustments can be made over time based on what helps most.
Online sessions offer flexibility for busy schedules. Video calls let people read facial cues and practice conversations in real time. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging provide shorter check-ins, quick coaching between meetings, or an option for people who write more comfortably than they speak. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other obligations while keeping the focus on steady progress.
