About Jacqueline
Jacqueline Forde is an LPC based in Texas who helps people address stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship concerns, grief, anger, and related life challenges. She frames therapy around thoughts and everyday habits, and she encourages clients to notice how patterns of thinking shape daily life. Jacqueline aims to create a calm, no-pressure space where people can speak honestly and begin to shift what isn't working.
She works collaboratively to tailor therapy to each person's goals. Sessions can focus on a single problem or look deeper at how past experiences influence current struggles. Jacqueline uses a mix of approaches to help people understand their habits and try different choices in everyday situations.
Her background includes eight years of clinical experience and a Licensed Professional Counselor credential, LPC. She draws on cognitive behavioral ideas alongside attachment-informed and humanistic ways of working to help people connect with what matters to them. This combination is used to notice unhelpful thoughts and to build new, workable routines.
Jacqueline often helps people identify unconscious beliefs that get in the way of change. The work tends to include developing clearer self-awareness, practicing small behavior changes, and strengthening emotional connection to personal values. Many clients aim to improve relationships, reduce anxiety, or rebuild after loss.
Her style is steady and accepting. Jacqueline views difficult feelings as openings for growth and supports people as they experiment with new habits and ways of thinking. She invites prospective clients to consider whether this collaborative, habits-focused approach would fit their needs.

How her approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting ruled by them, then take small actions that align with their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and finding motivation to change habits. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful thinking and everyday routines. It often helps with anxiety, panic, obsessions, and mood struggles. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships, helping people understand how early bonds affect trust and communication in adult life. This can aid relationship and intimacy concerns and wound-based patterns.Finding the best approach is part of the work. Jacqueline will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She adapts techniques over time as people try changes and notice what helps in daily life.
