Jacqueline Forde

Jacqueline Forde is an LPC based in Texas who focuses on helping people navigate hard moments. She emphasizes meeting people where they are and creating a calm, nonjudgmental space. Jacqueline aims to help clients notice what matters most and take practical steps forward.

She uses a mix of approaches to match each person’s needs. That can include cognitive behavioral ideas to spot unhelpful thinking, attachment-based work to look at relationship patterns, and client-centered listening to make space for what feels true. These methods are combined with emotionally focused and acceptance-based approaches when useful.

Jacqueline believes past experiences often shape present choices. In sessions she helps people connect patterns from earlier life to current struggles. That process can reduce shame and reveal practical changes that feel possible.

She works with a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, trauma and eating and body image issues. Jacqueline also supports people facing relationship strain, parenting challenges, career decisions, and questions about identity and self-worth.

Her practice aims to be collaborative and down-to-earth. Clients set goals and she helps design steps to reach them. The focus is on small, steady shifts that add up to real changes over time.

How Jacqueline’s Approaches Translate to Online Care

Jacqueline draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside attachment-focused ideas. ACT helps people notice thoughts and choose actions that fit their values, which can be useful for anxiety, grief, and persistent patterns around eating. CBT looks at thinking and behavior links and supports clear, practical steps to change unhelpful habits and reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jacqueline will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That choice is revisited as progress is made, so treatment can shift if another approach seems more helpful.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed.
