About Jacquelyn
Jacquelyn (Jackie) Burns is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) based in Ohio who helps people facing relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, career stress, anxiety, and addictions. She also supports concerns around intimacy, parenting, anger, depression, and life transitions. Jackie writes simply and listens closely to what matters most to each person.
Jackie believes people have inner strengths and often know more than they think. She treats each person as an individual and builds plans around their situation and goals. Sessions focus on clear, practical steps and honest conversation rather than jargon.
Her approach centers on being a listening presence and creating a nurturing, nonjudgmental space. She aims to help people reconnect with their sense of worth and dignity. Work can include addressing shame, forgiveness, attachment wounds, and the fallout from prejudice or discrimination.
Jackie draws on several therapeutic traditions when they fit the person’s needs, including Client-Centered Therapy and psychodynamic ideas that look at patterns from the past. She also uses narrative and solution-focused techniques to reshape stories and set achievable goals.
With 17 years of clinical experience, Jackie combines long-term clinical work and decades of life experience. She helps people look for meaning, mend what’s wounded, and take steps toward steadier mood, better relationships, and clearer purpose.
How Jackie’s Approaches Translate to Online Work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and following the person's lead. It helps when someone needs acceptance, clearer self-understanding, and a steady space to talk through painful topics. Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and helps rewrite those stories to reduce shame and increase agency.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jackie will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then use methods that fit those needs. The therapist adjusts pacing and techniques so the work feels right for the individual.
Ask about current online session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, shorten commute time, and allow brief check-ins when a short session is helpful. It also lets people engage from a familiar setting and focus on practical steps, storytelling, and emotional processing without rearranging a whole day.
