About Carline

Carline Jacques is a licensed mental health counselor practicing in New York who draws on eight years of clinical experience to support people facing mood and stress-related concerns.

Background and approach

She emphasizes an individualized, client-centered stance that begins by listening carefully to each person's story and identifying practical ways to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma, and grief. Her work integrates cognitive behavioral techniques to help clients recognize and shift unhelpful thoughts and patterns while also honoring the person's lived experience and values.

In sessions she attends to a wide range of related struggles, from attachment difficulties, communication problems, and feelings of emptiness to challenges such as chronic pain, addiction, eating concerns, and life-purpose questions. Carline aims to create an atmosphere of cultural sensitivity and respect where clients can process past wounds, build coping skills, and develop clearer plans for change.

She frames therapy as a collaborative process focused on resilience, improved coping, and reclaiming a stronger sense of self.

Approaches that guide online care

Carline integrates cognitive behavioral strategies and a client-centered stance to shape her online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing practical behavioral changes; it is often used to address anxiety, depression, mood fluctuations, and stress-related symptoms. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes empathetic listening and the client’s own goals, creating space for individuals to explore identity, grief, attachment wounds, and decisions about life purpose.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She partners with clients to consider their needs, personal goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques over time so therapy stays relevant and useful. The emphasis is on working together to find what fits best rather than imposing a single method.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. Those options can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, maintain continuity during life transitions, and use different communication styles to match what feels most comfortable for the client.
