DaVaughn has been so helpful in getting started with my therapy and helping me get to the root of where my anxiety lies. She listens, offers great questions, and allows me to work through my thoughts without pushing. I’ve only just begun working with her, but I’m so happy with my choice to work with her on my healing journey.

Hi,
Thank you for sharing information about yourself! I'm so happy that you reached out for help; it takes a lot of courage! I am DaVaughn Jackson, a licensed therapist. You can read more about my background, education, experience, and counseling approach by clicking on my name on this page. I appreciate you considering me for therapy!! Let's consider our first interaction as a consultation "try out" where you can see if I'm a good fit for you or not.
But let me explain my response time and availability if you plan to continue. I have twenty, 30 minute sessions: Monday-Friday 9:00am-4:00pm. We can meet live via video, phone or chat sessions once per week for 30 minutes or 45 minutes max; anything further would be at additional cost to you. I will respond via text in the BetterHelp platform multiple times per day as needed. If you are experiencing a mental health emergency or crisis, please report to the hospital of your choice, call 911 or 988.
I like to provide education and homework related to your issues to drive our session discussions. Are you willing to complete assignments to address your issues? The BetterHelp platform offers a journal feature which may be helpful to assign for expressing your thoughts and feelings. Are you willing to complete journal entries if asked? Please let me know if these services work for you.
Best Regards in Your Mental Health Journey!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

She is an awesome Therapist ! Ty !
Awesome therapist and wonderful person.
DaVaughn has been a wonderful individual to work with. She is very kind, very easy to talk to, and very observant. In working with her, she picked up on a lot of things in my life that I did not notice on my own. She recalls small details, and you can tell that she is a very attentive listener. She is a great advocate, and has helped me navigate some difficulties in my life. One aspect of therapy with DaVaughn that I found most helpful was how she helped me take what we talked about during our sessions and translate it into my day to day activities. It is easy to talk about things in a controlled environment like a therapy session, but implementing those things into daily life can be difficult. DaVaughn gave me some great ideas on how to easily implement things into my work and personal life, and those practices have helped me immensely. I feel like I have made a massive amount of progress in my personal life with the help of DaVaughn. She has shared a lot of tidbits of advice that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.
DeVaughn is a great listener and has helped me in such a short time. She is very easy to talk and become comfortable with. I look forward to our next sessions!
Very insightful! She's definitely made me feel comfortable about therapy. She helped uncover in a matter of weeks what I hadn't unpacked in years. Therapy may not be forever, but her help will last longer. I took away, "Life doesn't have to be perfect for it to be beautiful." I live by that now. Thank you, DaVaughn.
DaVaughn is phenomenal. So wise. Her support is amazing. I really do look forward to our sessions because her wisdom is just great. She is so radiant. God is working through her and I’m so grateful to have this opportunity to have her In my life to pour into me.
Soft spoken but should be less critical of the client who is seeking help and direction. Could have used more positive terms than “insanity” or “people pleaser” which I am neither. Just because I was looking for counseling doesn’t mean there is insanity. No wonder people don’t want help as they are afraid they will judged but a therapist should have a better approach.
Dr. Jackson has been an absolute delight and a true asset for me as a professional and as a woman. In just a few sessions she has already helped me to contextualize my anxiety so much, on top of being a wonderful listening ear and a stellar cheering session.
DaVaughn has helped me see that I'm truly a child of God even though I'm having a hard time with some issues. She has helped me understand that He loves me! I am His child and I'm wonderfully made! She shares struggles that she had and how those relate to my struggles and how she is finding victory.
DaVaughn has helped me identify my triggers of anxiety and develop ways to neutralize my triggers. Her advice is very actionable for me and has led to a marked improvement in my overall well being. I truly appreciate my time with DaVaughn.
DaVaughn has helped me tremendously as I navigated past trauma, anxiety, and self-esteem issues. She has been my port in the storm, and I would not be where I am today without her unconditional support. Her calm demeanor and expert wisdom have carried me through therapy for these past 10 months. In addition, she has allowed me to see myself for the first time in my life - to accept my flaws and strengths. I can confidently say that choosing therapy with DaVaughn was the best decision I've made this year - I wish I would have done it sooner. She has given me space and the opportunity to learn and grow into a person who is much more confident and secure. Thank you again DaVaughn for all that you have done - you have a special gift for healing and making people feel seen. I am forever grateful, thank you!
So far, so great. Just getting into the thick of things and liking where it's going!
I feel that DaVaughn understands the scope of my situation and she has sound advice. I highly recommend her!
DaVaughn is absolutely amazing she’s so kind encouraging and reassuring. She gives me realistic tools I can Use everyday. I look Forward to our sessions every week.
DaVaughn Jackson is such a pleasure to be working with. Her zest for life and willingness are so much appreciated. Her concern and variety of ways to help me through this process have been eye opening. She helps me go through issues from my past, the present, and looking towards the future are so helpful. During and after every session I feel extremely hopeful that I can change my life for the better.
DaVaughn has been great! I’m happy I found BetterHelp I see a bright future for both of us as she gets to know me! It helps to have someone other than family to talk to about different things without judgement.

Whenever I leave a session with her, I feel empowered and prepared to tackle the problems in my life. She has helped me navigate so many events in my life while offering a non-judgmental, listening ear. Through her help, I've been able to develop self-confidence and truly put myself first.

DaVaughn came into my life during a difficult time, and I am so blessed I got to know her. She listened to me and gave me some wonderful advice and tools for me to use as I continue on this new path! I always say God works in mysterious ways, and there is a reason we were paired up as counselor and patient.
DaVaughn has been wonderful and responsive. She offers thoughtful tools and strategies for coping. Furthermore, she has the experience and the wisdom.
I really appreciate DaVaughn because she takes the time to listen and then give appropriate feedback. She doesn’t try to change me and listens. I have told her things that I have never told anyone and for that I am grateful that she didn’t judge me or reply back with confusion or awkwardness.
Very good communication and had good ideas for beginning to establish positive habits (such as journaling)
She is kind compassionate and offers practical steps for your mental well-being
With a calm, sweet, and understanding demeanor, Ms. Jackson has came into my life right on time. She thoroughly listens and offers heart felt and practical advice.

She’s great!
DaVaughn was really helpful in dealing with my anxiety. I was also timid to reach out, but she did not hesitate to reach out to me. I really got the impression that she cared about me and wanted to help. It was very reassuring. I would definitely recommend!
She listens so gracefully and help me say all the things I didn’t know I felt inside, which introduce me to a new side of myself. This shows growth
This has truly been a wonderful help; I feel as if my concerns are heard and accurately interpreted, and that they are answered in meaninful, practical ways that I can actually use in my daily life.
