About Jacquelyn
Jacquelyn Galbreath Rabouin brings a practical, evidence-informed approach rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy while drawing on client-centered and emotionally focused methods.
Background and approach
With three decades of clinical experience as a California licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT), she helps people address stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. Her practice emphasizes collaborating with clients to identify thoughts and patterns that maintain distress and to build concrete skills for change.
Jacquelyn creates a welcoming space where emotions and concerns can be expressed openly without judgment. She blends targeted strategies for symptom relief with attention to deeper emotional experience, supporting clients through loss, chronic health-related challenges, communication difficulties, and issues such as abandonment, attachment, codependency, and isolation.
Whether working on forgiveness, navigating separation, or coping with chronic pain and disability, she aims to empower clients to take meaningful steps toward a more satisfying life.
Practical therapeutic approaches for online care
Jacquelyn commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients notice and reframe unhelpful thought patterns and to develop concrete coping skills for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. She also brings Emotionally-Focused Therapy elements that focus on identifying and reshaping emotional responses within relationships, which can be especially helpful for people navigating communication difficulties, attachment concerns, or relationship distress. In addition, client-centered principles guide sessions by prioritizing empathetic listening and the client's own goals as the basis for change.Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to understand their needs, preferences, and goals, and then outlines options and adjustments so the plan fits the client rather than forcing a single method.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to access care from different locations and to fit sessions into busy schedules. These formats support regular engagement, allow for skill practice between sessions, and make it possible to maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are difficult.
