01About Dwayne
Dwayne Jacobs is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 16 years of clinical experience. He has worked in residential addiction programs, correctional settings, community agencies, and school-based services. He approaches therapy as a partnership where the person in care helps shape goals and direction.
He sees therapy as a step-by-step process. Together the client and counselor identify areas to improve, set practical goals, and track progress. Honesty and effort from the client are treated as key parts of making change.
Background and approach
Dwayne emphasizes clear communication during sessions. If a client has questions or concerns, he encourages them to speak up so sessions can be adjusted. This keeps the work focused and responsive to what the client actually needs.
His background includes work with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and life changes. He also supports those dealing with addiction, trauma and abuse, grief, and relationship or intimacy challenges. Dwayne offers help for parenting, fatherhood issues, and various family of origin concerns.
He uses well-known therapeutic approaches to guide conversations and choices. Dwayne draws on client-centered work, cognitive behavioral strategies, existential ideas, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing to meet each person's goals. He practices in Louisiana and conducts sessions in English.
Teletherapy is part of his practice and he holds a Telemental Health Certified Counselor credential. That experience comes from providing therapy across video, phone, chat, and messaging formats to fit different schedules and needs.

04Online support
Approaches that translate to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and meeting a person where they are. It helps people clarify values, set goals, and feel heard during conversations. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood and habits; it adds practical tools and small experiments to change unhelpful patterns and is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress.Choosing the right approach is a joint effort. The therapist will work with each person to identify which methods fit their goals and preferences and will adjust techniques as progress is reviewed. That collaborative process helps shape a plan that feels useful and realistic.
Online sessions offer different ways to fit therapy into life. Video calls let people use visual cues and longer sessions, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging provide shorter check-ins or support between appointments. These options make scheduling more flexible and help people keep momentum when life gets busy.
