About Dwayne
Dwayne Jacobs is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 16 years of experience. He draws on a history of work in residential addiction treatment, correctional settings, community programs, and school-based agencies. He focuses on helping people handle stress, anxiety, relationship strain, career concerns, and life transitions.
He sees therapy as a team effort. Clients are asked to be honest and active partners in setting goals and tracking progress. The therapist and client build a working relationship to identify problems, create practical steps, and work toward better day-to-day functioning.
Background and approach
Sessions often involve straightforward conversations about coping skills, patterns that get in the way, and small experiments to try between meetings. He also uses questions and reflection to help people clarify values, priorities, and what matters most to them. That approach can help when facing grief, trauma, addiction, or feelings of emptiness.
Dwayne integrates practical tools with a focus on each person's lived experience. He uses Client-Centered techniques to follow what matters to the client, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and Existential ideas to look at meaning and choice. Mindfulness and motivational strategies are used to support change and sustain progress.
He works with a wide range of concerns including parenting stress, intimacy issues, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and first responder issues. Sessions are offered in English and are provided from Louisiana. The goal is clearer choices and steadier coping in everyday life.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Dwayne uses a few complementary approaches that fit well with remote work. Existential Therapy looks at meaning, choice, and responsibility; it helps when people feel stuck, empty, or faced with big life questions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and following the client's lead so sessions stay focused on what matters most to the person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets thinking and behavior patterns; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and building practical coping skills.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they may try a mix of approaches and adjust plans based on what helps the client make steady progress.
Online sessions offer flexibility and easier access to care. Video calls let people use face-to-face interaction while staying in their own area. Phone sessions can be helpful when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat or text-based messaging supports quick check-ins, brief coaching, or ongoing reminders between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, school, or caregiving responsibilities.
