About Jacquelyn

Dr. Jacquelyn Mentor is a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 23 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on anger, stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, addiction, parenting concerns, and other life changes. She uses practical conversation and problem solving to help people regain a sense of control in difficult moments.

Jacquelyn draws on long personal and professional experience with loss, caregiving, and health challenges. That background informs how she listens and the kinds of resources she offers. She emphasizes straightforward tools and clear education so clients know what to try between sessions.

In sessions she blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral techniques and solution-focused steps. That means time is spent both on understanding what matters to the person and on testing small, concrete changes. Trauma-focused methods are used when past events are getting in the way of daily functioning.

She has worked across domestic violence, child abuse, parenting skills, developmental disabilities, workplace issues, and crisis response. Clients can expect calm, direct conversation and practical suggestions for managing strong emotions and conflict. Psychoeducation and resource recommendations are part of the work.

Her training includes a B.S. and M.S. in psychology and an Ed.D. in counseling psychology. The profile lists her as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor Supervisor in Florida. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before scheduling.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to remote sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. That approach helps a therapist understand what triggers anger and what values guide the client’s choices.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the thoughts and behaviors that feed anger. It uses short experiments and practical homework to test different responses and reduce unhelpful patterns.

She will work collaboratively to choose approaches that fit a client’s goals and preferences. The process is exploratory: plans can be adjusted based on what helps and what feels manageable.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into workdays or caregiving schedules, allow shorter check-ins when helpful, and reduce travel time. Discussing which approach and which session length will work best is part of the initial scheduling conversation.
