About Jacquelyn
Jacquelyn (Jackie) Burns is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) in Ohio with 17 years of counseling experience. She focuses on relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, anxiety, and codependency. Jackie aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can speak openly and work toward better balance in daily life.
She believes people carry strengths that help them heal. Sessions begin by listening closely to the reason someone is seeking help. That information shapes a personalized plan rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Jackie emphasizes clear, practical steps alongside deeper reflection.
Her style is warm and nonjudgmental. She offers a steady, listening presence and encourages honest conversation about what matters most. Jackie often helps people name feelings, set boundaries, and rebuild self-worth after loss or betrayal.
Therapeutic work draws on several approaches. Client-centered methods keep the person’s perspective central. Narrative ideas help people rework the stories they tell about themselves. Psychodynamic and Jungian influences invite attention to patterns and deeper meanings that repeat across relationships.
Many clients seek help with life transitions, caregiving stress, commitment fears, and recovering from past wounds. Jackie also supports people facing career shifts, eating concerns, and questions about identity. Her goal is to help each person find practical change and a clearer sense of purpose.
How her therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy puts the person’s concerns first. The therapist listens deeply, follows the client’s lead, and helps people identify what feels most important to change. This approach can help with confidence, relationship issues, and stress by focusing on the client’s own goals.Narrative therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and their relationships. Reframing those stories can reduce shame and open up new options for behaving and feeling. This work often helps with identity questions, codependency, and healing after loss.
Psychodynamic and Jungian ideas pay attention to repeating patterns and deeper emotional themes. When people notice recurring behaviors and feelings, they can choose different responses in daily life. This can be useful for longstanding relationship patterns, attachment concerns, and persistent anxiety.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision evolves as work proceeds and priorities shift.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can use these sessions to guide reflection, teach coping strategies, and track progress over time.
