About Jacqueline

Jacqueline Soriano is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who offers trauma-informed, short-term therapy. She works in a collaborative and compassionate way, helping adults feel seen and understood as they face anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, and major life changes.

Her style focuses on practical steps people can use right away. She draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, mindfulness, and solution-focused techniques to help clients reconnect with personal values. Sessions aim to build coping tools and increase motivation to move toward meaningful change.

She also supports those dealing with compassion fatigue, chronic illness and pain, caregiver stress, and hospice or end-of-life concerns.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Jacqueline uses evidence-based techniques that focus on values, present-moment awareness, and practical steps. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take actions aligned with those values even when distressing thoughts or feelings appear. Mindfulness practices teach simple ways to notice thoughts and sensations so people can respond with more choice instead of reacting on autopilot.

She also uses solution-focused strategies that break concerns into manageable goals and experiments. These techniques target immediate problems and build small wins that improve functioning and confidence over time. Together these approaches aim to reduce overwhelm and increase purposeful action in daily life.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Jacqueline will work with each person to see which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and will adjust the plan as progress is made. The therapy relationship is used to test what helps and what to change.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed.
