About Jacqueline

Jacqueline Lacy-Diggins is an LPC with 27 years of clinical experience who centers her work on practical, evidence-informed methods. She blends cognitive behavioral techniques with client-centered and solution-focused strategies to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and the effects of trauma and abuse.

Background and approach

Jacqueline emphasizes building skills that support emotion regulation, clearer communication, and renewed sense of purpose. Her practice addresses a broad range of life challenges including coping with life changes, midlife concerns, and issues tied to family of origin or relationship difficulties such as divorce, infidelity, and communication problems.

She also works with substance-related struggles, eating and food-related issues, and experiences of guilt, shame, or emptiness. Based in Arkansas and licensed as AR LPC P0607041, she offers therapy in English and brings long-term clinical perspective to each client relationship.

Jacqueline frames change as collaborative work, helping clients identify realistic goals and practical strategies. Her experience in trauma-focused care informs sensitive approaches when past harm affects current functioning, while solution-focused elements help clients move toward immediate, achievable improvements.

Applying practical therapies to online care

Jacqueline uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression and support concrete coping skills. She also draws on client-centered principles that emphasize listening, empathy, and collaboration so clients feel heard while they explore concerns and set meaningful goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and is determined together based on a client’s needs, goals, and preferences. She engages clients collaboratively to select and adjust methods over time, combining structure and skills-building with responsive support as issues evolve.

Online offerings include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility for scheduling and fit different communication styles. These options make it easier to access consistent care from Arkansas, accommodate busy routines, and maintain momentum between sessions through messaging and brief check-ins.
