About Jacqueline
Jacqueline Forde is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with eight years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting challenges, and issues linked to identity and culture. Jacqueline also supports clients dealing with grief, anger, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and a range of other concerns listed in her practice.
Her work emphasizes emotional experience and attachment patterns. She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) together with approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), client-centered and attachment-based methods. Sessions focus on noticing emotions, tracking how those feelings connect to behaviors, and naming patterns that cause repeated problems.
Jacqueline invites people to explore both immediate problems and deeper life patterns. She helps clients look at how early relationships and past events continue to shape thoughts and reactions now. The goal is to recognize unhelpful beliefs and develop clearer choices about how to respond.
In practical terms, she blends talking, reflection, and skills practice. Clients can expect straightforward discussion about specific worries such as panic attacks, obsessive thinking, body image, hoarding, or relationship conflict. She draws on a mix of strategies to help clients change unhelpful behaviors and build new habits.
Jacqueline frames therapy as a collaborative process. She respects that people know their own lives best and works with them to identify the changes they want. The work often moves from awareness to small, concrete steps that fit everyday life.
How her approaches translate to online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and name difficult emotions and the patterns those emotions create in relationships. EFT is useful when someone wants to understand why they react a certain way and how feelings connect to behavior. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting caught in them, and then taking values-based actions. ACT can help with anxiety, avoidance, and finding clear priorities. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they shape current responses; it can be helpful for intimacy-related challenges and ongoing trust issues. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together they will choose methods that fit the client's needs. That collaborative process can include trying different tools from EFT, ACT, or CBT and seeing what helps most in day-to-day life. Confirm the current session options before booking since specific formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and reduce travel time. Some formats use less bandwidth or allow audio-only check-ins, which can suit brief updates or a quieter check-in during a work break. Talk with the therapist when scheduling to decide which format and length best match practical needs and therapeutic goals.Areas of expertise
