About Jacqueline
Jacqueline Lacy-Diggins is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Arkansas with 27 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. Jacqueline focuses on practical steps people can use to feel steadier in daily life.
She draws on client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral ideas to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try small behavioral changes. Solution-focused techniques are used for short-term problem solving and setting concrete goals. Trauma-focused work is included when past events continue to affect how someone thinks, feels, or reacts now.
Jacqueline often helps clients who are navigating midlife shifts, relationship breakups, or challenges tied to family of origin. She also supports people dealing with substance concerns, eating-related issues, feelings of emptiness, guilt, shame, and the stress of caregiving or aging relatives. Her approach emphasizes clear skills people can practice between sessions.
Sessions tend to center on identifying the next right step rather than lengthy theory. Jacqueline helps people build communication skills, manage overwhelming worry, and address low mood with practical coping tools. She encourages clients to set small, achievable targets and track progress over time.
People who prefer direct, goal-oriented work will find a straightforward style in sessions. Jacqueline asks about current stresses and personal goals, then suggests exercises and ways to test new behaviors. If needed, she incorporates trauma-focused strategies to process difficult memories and reduce their impact on everyday functioning.
