Jacqueline Adams, LPC

Jacqueline Adams is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Pennsylvania who uses practical, evidence-informed approaches to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma. She focuses on clear, goal-oriented work so clients can see changes in day-to-day life.

She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and to build more effective coping skills. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is used when people are wrestling with painful emotions or values-based decisions. Attachment-based ideas inform work on close relationships and patterns that repeat across relationships.

Jacqueline has six years of professional experience and adapts her conversations to each person’s situation. She aims to treat people with respect, sensitivity, and compassion while keeping sessions practical and straightforward. Expect focused sessions that mix talk, real-life practice, and small behavior changes.

Topics she commonly addresses include relationship and family strain, parenting stress, grief, eating and body image concerns, addictions, and issues related to trauma or abuse. She also supports people working through abandonment, codependency, blended family dynamics, and communication problems.

Jacqueline works with people across a range of life challenges and helps them set clear, manageable goals. She encourages steady progress and supports clients as they try new ways of behaving and relating. Starting therapy is described as a courageous first step toward a more manageable life.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Jacqueline uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice thinking patterns and test new behaviors. CBT sessions often include exercises and homework that translate well to online meetings. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify values and practice accepting difficult feelings while making chosen changes, which can be useful for stress, anxiety, and grief. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current connections and supports people trying to change how they relate to close others.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Jacqueline will talk with each person about goals, past attempts, and preferences, then suggest one or a mix of methods to try. This is a collaborative process and can be adjusted over time based on what helps most.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and exercises, phone sessions can be easier when video feels like too much, and live chat or text-based messaging works for brief check-ins or when typing fits better into a busy day. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other time pressures while keeping the focus on practical progress.
