Jacquelyn 'Jackie' Newman-Hoppe , LPC

Jacquelyn "Jackie" Newman-Hoppe is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Missouri with 12 years of clinical experience helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges. She focuses on improving day-to-day functioning, offering clarity during transitions, and supporting emotional growth so clients can move toward healing and stronger relationships. Her work addresses a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and family difficulties, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, eating concerns, parenting and anger, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and coping with life changes.

Jackie brings personal and professional perspective to her practice. She has experience supporting people affected by substance misuse and their family members, and she has a particular interest in blended family dynamics informed by her own experience blending five children. That family experience influenced her decision to become an LPC and continues to shape her approach to helping families find improved communication and connection. She is also a proud spouse of an Air Force veteran, a mother of five adult children, and a grandmother.

Her counseling style is warm, interactive, and solution-focused, built on respect, sensitivity, and compassionate listening. Jackie practices an eclectic approach, tailoring conversations and treatment plans to each person’s unique needs and often drawing on cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, and rational-emotive techniques. She partners with clients to explore options and work toward practical solutions, supporting each person as the expert on their own life.

Approaches and Online Care for Lasting Change

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that align with their values. It is often useful for stress, anxiety, and life transitions because it focuses on meaningful behavior rather than trying to eliminate unwanted internal experiences.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental relationship in which the therapist offers empathy and acceptance to help clients explore their own goals and solutions. This approach can support growth in areas such as self-esteem, relationship challenges, and parenting concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skills-based approach that helps people identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, coping with life changes, and many everyday challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jackie works collaboratively with clients and licensed professionals to determine which methods best fit each person’s needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts techniques over time as those needs evolve.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility, allowing clients to meet by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, continue care through transitions, and maintain regular contact with a therapist from different locations.
