About Jacquelyn
Jacquelyn (Jackie) Burns is an Ohio LPCC with 17 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, anxiety, and addiction concerns. Jackie also supports people wrestling with codependency, attachment and abandonment issues, and life changes that leave them exhausted or stuck.
Jackie frames therapy around each person's lived experience. She listens and helps people notice patterns that keep them giving too much or losing their voice. Conversations focus on practical shifts in how someone relates to others, handles anger or guilt, and rebuilds a clearer sense of self.
Her style draws on client-centered work that prioritizes the client's perspective. She uses narrative and psychodynamic ideas to surface recurring stories and early relational patterns. Solution-focused techniques are used to identify small, immediate steps that move things forward.
Sessions often look at attachment and family history to understand current relationship reactions. Jackie pays attention to how shame, abandonment fears, or control patterns shape choices. That material is used to develop concrete practices for setting limits, reducing reactivity, and making healthier decisions.
She also integrates Jungian concepts to explore themes and personal meaning that show up in dreams or symbols. Those insights can help people reconnect with values and purpose after loss or painful endings. Jackie asks practical questions and offers clear options so people can try new ways of relating outside sessions.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding the client's perspective and priorities. In online sessions this means she listens for what matters most and follows the client's lead to explore current difficulties and goals.Narrative therapy helps people name the stories that shape their behavior. Online conversations can unpack recurring patterns like codependency or shame and create alternative narratives that support different choices.
Psychodynamic ideas look for repeated relational themes rooted in early experience. In remote sessions these threads are examined so clients see how past patterns influence present relationships and choices.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Jackie will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and together they decide which methods to try. That collaborative process can be adjusted as therapy progresses.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use conversation-focused methods from home or work and to try exercises between sessions that build new habits.
