About Jacqueline
Jacqueline Baures is a licensed professional counselor who helps people in Wisconsin work through stress, anxiety, grief, and the effects of trauma. She uses practical, evidence-based techniques to help clients get through big life changes. Jacqueline focuses on clear goals and steady progress in a calm, respectful space.

Background and approach
Jacqueline balances short-term coping tools with deeper work when that fits the client's needs. Jacqueline has five years of counseling experience and brings that background to questions about self-esteem, obsessions and compulsions, and feelings of isolation or loneliness. She also supports people with concerns related to aging, body image, family of origin issues, and end-of-life matters.
Her practice attends to a wide range of life transitions and identity questions, including gender dysphoria and non-monogamous relationships. People who prefer straightforward guidance appreciate her practical style. Conversations are collaborative and focused on what will make a difference in daily life.
Jacqueline aims to help people notice progress and build confidence as they practice new ways of coping. Sessions are offered in English and are available through video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Prospective clients can complete a short matching questionnaire to get started and schedule according to availability.
Evidence-based approaches and online care
Jacqueline uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on concrete skills and gradual change. One common approach is skill‑based work that teaches emotion regulation and stress management strategies to reduce anxiety and overwhelm. These tools help people respond differently in difficult moments and gain more control over daily stress.Another common focus is trauma-informed care that prioritizes safety and pacing. This involves gentle, step-by-step processing and grounding skills so people can work through painful memories without becoming overwhelmed. It can be helpful for those dealing with past abuse or complex grief.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jacqueline will talk with each person about their goals, try different strategies, and adjust the plan as needed. The choice of methods depends on what a person needs, how they respond, and what feels most helpful in real life.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions happen. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging can fit short check-ins or those who prefer typing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and keep continuity of care when travel or work makes in-person visits difficult.
