Angela Jackson

Angela Jackson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Tennessee. She focuses on concerns that often come with major life shifts such as stress, anxiety, grief, parenting struggles, relationship and intimacy issues, and divorce and separation. She also supports people coping with addiction, ADHD, anger, compassion fatigue, and chronic illness adjustments.

Angela aims for straightforward, practical sessions. She listens first and helps clients set small, achievable goals. Sessions often include talking through difficult moments, trying new ways to communicate, and practicing skills that can be used at home. Her tone is direct and supportive rather than academic.

With 16 years in the helping field, Angela has worked in a range of settings and roles. Her background includes individual work, group facilitation, couples and family conversations, mentorship, clinical supervision, and public speaking. She has a sustained interest in serving underserved Black communities and people of color through education and resources.

Her clinical approach draws on client-centered work, solution-focused techniques, and elements of cognitive and emotion-focused methods. That means sessions center on the person’s goals, use short-term strategies to address pressing problems, and attend to strong emotions that arise in relationships. She uses Motivational Interviewing when addressing change related to substance use and other habits.

People who want a pragmatic, respectful counselor for life transitions and relationship challenges may find this approach useful. To begin, confirm session formats and scheduling options before booking.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. Online sessions can keep that same emphasis on the client's goals, feelings, and personal strengths and help people feel heard while they sort through changes and losses.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers clear steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. In an online setting CBT can include simple exercises, homework, and skill practice between sessions to manage anxiety, panic, or stress related to divorce and separation.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and name strong emotions in relationships. When used online, EFT-guided conversations can help partners or individuals identify patterns and try new ways of responding in strong moments.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust the plan as needed. Clients and therapist work together to find what helps most for the specific problem and life situation.

Confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow focused check-ins during breaks. Some formats may be better for brief coaching-style work while others suit longer, emotion-focused conversations; discuss preferences when you schedule.
