About Jacqueline
Jacqueline Hendrickson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over three decades of practice in New Jersey. She earned a master of social work degree in 1985 and has provided ongoing clinical support since then. Jacqueline offers steady, experienced guidance for people facing hard transitions.
She keeps sessions straightforward and calm. Jacqueline invites people to speak about what matters most and listens without rushing. Her approach focuses on helping clients name their concerns and try manageable changes.
Background and approach
Jacqueline uses Narrative Therapy to help people reframe their stories and see new possibilities. She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person's pace and priorities. Elements of Psychodynamic and Solution-Focused work appear when they fit the client’s goals.
In practice she supports common struggles such as stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and trouble sleeping. Jacqueline also helps with relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting concerns, and career questions. She brings particular attention to compassion fatigue and life-stage topics like aging and postpartum challenges.
Sessions move at the client's rhythm and emphasize real-world steps. Jacqueline aims to help people clarify values, strengthen self-esteem, and reduce patterns that get in the way. The focus is practical: clearer thinking, new options, and steadier coping.

How Jacqueline’s Approaches Work Online
Jacqueline often draws on Narrative Therapy to help people examine the stories they tell about themselves and notice alternatives. This approach can be useful for grief, low self-esteem, and life changes that feel stuck. Client-Centered Therapy is another core element she uses, which centers the conversation on the client’s priorities and pace and supports coming to one’s own conclusions.Choosing how to work together is a team process. Jacqueline will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then suggest approaches that fit. She adjusts methods over time so the work stays focused on what matters to the client and what feels helpful.
Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy lives. Video calls let you use visual cues and more natural conversation. Phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging support ongoing reflection between sessions and shorter, more frequent touch points. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, family, and daily life.
