About Jacklyn

Rev. Jacklyn McNeil is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 25 years of counseling experience in Oklahoma and Kansas. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship concerns, addictions, grief, compassion fatigue, and challenges like parenting, sleep and eating problems.

Her approach treats the person in front of her as the expert on their life. She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside attachment-based, client-centered, cognitive behavioral, and dialectical behavior techniques. Sessions focus on identifying difficult emotions, noticing patterns, and trying new ways of responding.

In practical terms she listens for what is getting in the way each week and helps clients practice different skills between sessions. That can mean working on communication habits, emotion regulation skills, or strategies for coping with cravings, grief, or chronic stress. She explains ideas plainly and keeps exercises short and doable.

Her work includes attention to attachment issues, abandonment concerns, blended family stress, caregiver strain, and the effects of chronic illness or pain. She also addresses self-esteem, anger, body image, and commitment or control issues.

Clients can expect a steady, skills-focused style that combines understanding of emotional patterns with concrete steps to change day-to-day responses. The goal is clearer feelings, fewer reactive moments, and better choices about next steps.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and working with core emotions that shape reactions and relationship patterns. It can help people name hard feelings and try new ways of responding to them. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds affect current relationships and coping, and it can be useful for people who notice recurring patterns tied to closeness or distance.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and reflecting what the client brings to the session. It supports people who want a conversational space to sort through feelings while deciding goals together. These approaches are offered alongside practical skills from CBT and DBT when helpful.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to match methods to the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. That could mean focusing on emotions in one period and practicing CBT or DBT skills in another.

Confirm current session options before booking, as the biography does not list formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week - for example, shorter check-ins can work around a work break, phone or lower-bandwidth options can be chosen when video isn’t convenient, and remote sessions remove travel time. Ask about formats and scheduling when completing the matching questionnaire so sessions fit daily life.
