About Jacqueline
Jacqueline Forde is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Texas with eight years of clinical experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship problems, grief, anger, and related concerns. Jacqueline also supports those facing issues such as body image, OCD, panic, trauma, and career or parenting stress.
She works in a down-to-earth way that recognizes a person knows their life best. Sessions focus on understanding what is blocking progress and on practical steps to change patterns. Jacqueline draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based work, Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), and client-centered skills to guide those conversations.
Her approach pays attention to how past experiences shape current difficulties. She will help a client notice repeated thoughts and behaviors, and then try small, concrete experiments to shift them. For people struggling with anxiety, panic, or obsessive thinking, this often means learning new ways to respond when worries arise.
Jacqueline aims to reduce the pressure clients put on themselves and to make sessions straightforward. She can help people sort through grief, separation, guilt, shame, and issues around intimacy or identity. The focus is on clear skills, steady reflection, and moving toward the goals a client names.
In practice she emphasizes collaboration rather than direction. Clients and Jacqueline work together to identify unhelpful beliefs, test alternatives, and build steps that fit everyday life. This makes therapy practical and focused on the change a person wants to see.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then taking steps toward personal values. It is often used for anxiety, avoidance, and shame-related problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions, and teaches clear skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. This approach is commonly used for panic, obsessive thinking, and stress. Attachment-Based work pays attention to patterns in relationships and how early bonds affect current trust, closeness, and conflict.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jacqueline will collaborate with clients to decide which ideas to try first based on their goals and preferences. She adjusts the mix of methods as progress or new concerns appear, so the plan stays practical and relevant.
Session format options are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online session choices before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit counseling into work, parenting, or travel schedules, reduce travel time, and make short check-ins easier to arrange. Online work also lets a therapist guide exposure practices or homework between sessions in real-life settings, which can be useful for social anxiety, panic, and avoidance patterns.
