About Jaclene
Jaclene Newell is a Licensed Professional Counselor who blends somatic work with practical talk therapy. She brings nine years of experience helping people who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, grief, trauma, and relationship pain. Jaclene aims to create a calm space where people can slow down, notice their bodies, and find clearer ways to cope.
Her approach is gentle and down-to-earth. Sessions often pair body-based awareness with straightforward tools from cognitive behavioral and acceptance work.
Background and approach
That combination can help with symptoms like low mood, trouble sleeping, and chronic stress. Jaclene listens for both words and physical signals to guide the next steps. She also focuses on attachment and relationship patterns.
That work looks at how early connections shape current expectations and reactions. Jaclene helps people spot those patterns and practice different ways of relating that feel safer and more satisfying. Jaclene draws on nine years of clinical experience in Wisconsin as an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor.
She uses a flexible, client-centered stance so goals reflect each person’s life and values. Progress is measured in small, real changes like calmer breathing or better sleep. Sessions are offered in English and can be scheduled online.
People can connect by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling through the Start Therapy option.
How somatic and talk therapies work online
Somatic-informed work helps people notice what the body is saying - breathing, tension, or sensations - and then use that information to calm down and respond differently. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on spotting painful thoughts and values-driven action so people can move toward a life they care about. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people try new, safer ways of relating.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your needs, goals, and preferences and suggest ways to combine body-focused work with acceptance and attachment ideas. Together you’ll try options and adjust the plan as you learn what helps most.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let you see and be seen while working on breathing and movement cues. Phone sessions are helpful when video isn’t possible. Live chat and text-based messaging support short check-ins, coping tools between sessions, and people who prefer written communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily life and keep momentum between meetings.
