About Jackie
Jackie Potts-Powell is a licensed professional counselor with 21 years of experience. She practices in Louisiana and Texas and offers a steady, nonjudgmental presence for people who want clear thinking about their lives. Jackie focuses on helping people slow down and make sense of how their past shaped their present choices.
She believes therapy is not about fixing someone. It is about understanding patterns and deciding what to keep or change.
Background and approach
Jackie encourages honest self-reflection and helps clients identify which habits once helped and which now hold them back. In sessions she offers thoughtful challenges delivered with respect. Clients learn to reframe long-held beliefs and examine repeated behaviors.
The aim is greater psychological flexibility and more options for responding to stress, anger, or life changes. Jackie often works with people navigating relationship issues, career shifts, grief, parenting strain, and emotions such as anxiety, depression, guilt, and anger. She also addresses attachment wounds, codependency, communication problems, and family of origin concerns.
Her approach is practical and collaborative. Together with each client she clarifies goals and charts a path forward. Jackie helps people move intentionally toward change, whether that means setting stronger boundaries, choosing forgiveness, or finding new purpose.

Approaches that help online and in person
Jackie uses evidence-based techniques that help people change unhelpful patterns and respond differently to strong emotions. One common approach is cognitive reframing, which helps people notice and revise long-held beliefs that drive anger, anxiety, or low self-esteem. Another focus is perspective shifting and behavioral experiments to test new ways of relating and problem solving, useful for relationship strain, codependency, and career changes.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jackie will work with the client to identify goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences. She checks progress and adjusts strategies so people feel the work matches their stage of change and what they want to achieve.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls let people read body language and have deeper conversation; phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or for a quick check-in. Live chat and text messaging are good for shorter check-ins, ongoing coaching, or when someone prefers written communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, or busy schedules.
