About Jacklyn
Jacklyn Kenny Rothenberger is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with five years of clinical experience. She focuses on practical, problem-solving work and helps people who are struggling with addiction, relationship problems, trauma, grief, and attention-deficit concerns. Her style is direct and compassionate, aimed at making therapy understandable and useful for everyday life.
She often works with people dealing with drug and alcohol addiction and process addictions. She also helps those navigating infidelity, veteran and armed forces issues, and post-traumatic stress.
Background and approach
Sessions address how habits, emotions, and past events affect day-to-day functioning. Her approach is strengths-based. That means she looks for existing skills and resilience to build on.
She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and behavioral patterns, and she incorporates dialectical strategies to teach emotional regulation and coping skills. Jacklyn values clear goals and practical tools. Clients can expect to practice new skills between sessions and track small changes over time.
She describes self-examination as a key step toward greater stability and satisfaction. She provides care from Virginia and meets people through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Sessions are offered in English and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
To begin, a prospective client completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules according to therapist availability.
Evidence-informed approaches and online care
Jacklyn uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. This approach is useful for anxiety, depressive symptoms, and the habit patterns that accompany addiction. Dialectical strategies are also part of her work, focusing on emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving day-to-day coping when emotions feel overwhelming.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss what is most important to the client, try strategies that match their goals, and adjust methods as progress is reviewed. Clients take an active role in deciding which tools feel most helpful for their situation.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit into a busy schedule and use less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, coaching moments, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel routines while keeping consistent contact with a licensed professional.
