About Donald

Donald Lee Jackson Jr is a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, LCMHC, practicing in Georgia with ten years of experience. He focuses on common life stresses such as anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and anger. He also lists work with addictions, intimacy issues, ADHD, and LGBT concerns.

He uses practical, everyday techniques in sessions. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and actions. He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take committed steps that fit their priorities. Client-Centered Therapy guides conversations so the person leads the pace and topics.

Lee’s background includes school counseling and years of work with students and parents. That history shaped a straightforward approach to problem solving and coping skills. He often brings tools that clients can try between sessions to manage anxiety, intrusive thoughts, or tension with others.

Sessions focus on what’s happening now and what the person wants to change. He pays attention to communication, attachment patterns, control and commitment issues, and family-of-origin concerns when they show up. He also lists specific areas like fertility, fatherhood, cancer, first responder issues, and forgiveness among his additional interests.

People who book with him can expect clear, goal-focused conversations and practical exercises. He asks questions, offers behavioral strategies, and helps clients decide which steps to try next. Prospective clients should confirm current session formats before booking.

How sessions work

How his approach translates to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people identify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values, even when strong feelings or urges show up. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thought patterns and behaviors to build practical skills for reducing anxiety, anger, and low mood. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the person’s perspective so sessions move at a comfortable pace and focus on what the client brings. Choosing the right method is part of the work. He will collaborate with the client to decide which approaches fit their goals and preferences. That may mean mixing ACT and CBT tools or keeping conversations largely client-led depending on what feels most useful. Formats for online work were not specified in the biography, so confirm the session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, or allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people use behavioral exercises and worksheets between meetings to practice new responses to anger, stress, or relationship patterns.
