About Jacqueline

Jacqueline Baiada brings 30 years of clinical practice to her work as an LCSW in North Carolina, drawing on cognitive behavioral, mindfulness, narrative, solution-focused, and trauma-focused ideas to shape therapy.

Background and approach

She combines practical strategies with attention to life stories, helping clients identify patterns, reframe unhelpful thoughts, and develop clearer coping skills for issues like anxiety, anger, stress, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and ADHD.

Her experience includes supporting people affected by many forms of trauma including emotional, physical, and sexual abuse, as well as helping those navigating grief, post-traumatic stress, infidelity, and family-of-origin concerns. Jacqueline describes her style as both caring and challenging; she aims to build an empathic therapeutic connection while also encouraging clients to confront obstacles and try new approaches.

Therapy is tailored to each person or family, with an emphasis on practical problem solving and exploring personal narratives to create lasting change. She accepts international clients and works in English and Danish, offering flexible online session formats to fit varied schedules.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Jacqueline integrates cognitive behavioral strategies and trauma-focused work to address patterns of thought and the effects of past harm. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify and reshape unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve coping, while Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on processing traumatic experiences and building safety and symptom management skills.

She also uses Narrative Therapy to explore how personal stories shape identity and relationships, helping clients re-author parts of their life story to support change. These approaches are described and adapted collaboratively so that the therapy plan reflects each person’s goals, needs, and preferences rather than a one-size-fits-all model.

Online therapy with Jacqueline is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for varied schedules and time zones. Remote sessions make it easier to access consistent support, practice skills between meetings, and connect with a licensed professional from wherever the client is located.
