Jacqueline Childress , LPC

Jacqueline Childress is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia with 20 years of professional experience. She has worked extensively with people facing trauma and abuse, intimacy-related challenges, struggles with motivation, self-esteem and confidence concerns, and depression. Jacqueline centers her work on the belief that each person is the expert on their own story and brings existing strengths that can be used to overcome life’s obstacles.

She recognizes that seeking change requires courage and views the decision to pursue a more fulfilling life as an important first step. In sessions she aims to support and empower clients as they navigate challenges and pursue meaningful goals, offering guidance while honoring each person’s expertise and resilience.

As an LPC, Jacqueline combines professional training with a strengths-based perspective to help clients build confidence, address painful experiences, and move toward greater well-being.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Access

Jacqueline integrates evidence-based techniques tailored to each person's needs. She uses trauma-informed approaches that help individuals process and make sense of painful experiences while building coping skills to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. She also employs practical, skills-focused strategies that teach tools for managing stress, anxiety, low mood, and challenges with motivation and self-esteem. These approaches emphasize learning concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns and strengthen resilience.

Choosing the best therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Jacqueline works with clients to identify goals, preferences, and strengths, and she adjusts methods as needed so the work fits each person and their situation. The aim is to find a respectful, effective way forward together.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit care into a busy life. These formats offer flexibility in scheduling, allow ongoing contact between sessions when appropriate, and increase access to licensed professionals and therapists for people who may have barriers to in-person care.
