About Jackie
Jackie Potts-Powell is a licensed professional counselor with more than 21 years of practice. She offers a calm, nonjudgmental space where adults can slow down and take an honest look at themselves. Sessions focus on understanding how past experiences shaped current patterns and what can change now.
Jackie helps people notice which habits still serve them and which no longer fit. She encourages practical shifts in perspective rather than quick fixes.
Background and approach
Work in sessions often includes rethinking long-held beliefs and gently challenging patterns that limit choice. Her approach emphasizes honest self-reflection and acceptance of past choices without shame. From that place, clients and Jackie map out clear next steps.
Those steps might include choosing a different direction, setting boundaries, or practicing new ways of relating. Jackie commonly supports people dealing with relationship strain, family concerns, self-esteem struggles, depression, anxiety, and grief. She also addresses issues such as abandonment, attachment wounds, codependency, infidelity, and life purpose.
Career stress and compassion fatigue are part of her focus as well. Based in Louisiana and licensed as an LPC, she works with adults in their mid-twenties and older who want thoughtful, steady change. Therapy is collaborative and paced to each person’s readiness.
Jackie aims to help people move from stuck patterns toward clearer choices and renewed purpose.
Evidence-based approaches and online care
Jackie uses well-established, evidence-informed techniques that help people shift long-standing patterns and respond differently to life stress. One common approach involves helping clients notice and reframe long-held beliefs. This method focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing alternatives so behavior and feelings can change.Another approach emphasizes building psychological flexibility by gently challenging old coping strategies and exploring new options. That work can help with relationship struggles, anxiety, depression, and grief by creating more choices in how someone responds to difficult situations.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Jackie will talk with each person about goals, past efforts, and what feels most useful. Together they try methods, assess what helps, and adjust the plan to match the client’s needs and preferences.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for this work. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer written check-ins or want more frequent brief support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and maintain regular momentum.
