I'm struggling with relationships on all levels, so feeling good with a person is the highest praise I can give!
Working with Jacqueline I feel comfortable and supported - it's a safe space where I learn, very much starting from example, that "being completely human" and "showing all of myself" are not contradictions, but rather what enables successful relationships.
I'm grateful to have her in my life, a safe space from which I can trust to build other relationships and figure through difficult spots.

Written on Aug 24, 2017 after therapy with Jacqueline for 5 months on issues concerning relationship, and family

My husband and I turned to Jacqueline for a very personal matter. As middle-aged newlyweds, we wanted to deal with this little bud of a problem before it blossomed into something bigger. Our relationship with Jacqueline was brief, but only because she gave us something to take away to think about - each of us - and that's what we did. We thought and we talked, and all is good. Jacqueline made it very easy for us to discuss the most intimate of issues - she was very easy to talk to. We are very pleased that we reached out to Jacqueline.

Written on Aug 03, 2017 after therapy with Jacqueline for 1 month on issues concerning relationship, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related, and anger

I was very pleased with her communication style and frequency, and I felt that she truly cared, even though we would never meet in person. She seems like a very compassionate person, and I am glad that I matched with her. Thank you, Jacqueline!

I am learning from my sessions with Jacqueline. She's direct and I respond best to people who are direct. When I signed up, I asked for a male therapist to perhaps have a better understanding (if there is such a thing) of men's thought process (like my husband's). She's doing well with being objective and direct.

Written on Mar 26, 2017 after therapy with Jacqueline for 2 weeks on issues concerning relationship, and family

I have read the other reviews. Every person that wrote a testament with their time with Jacqueline is everything I would say and much more. I have been in counseling for 2 yrs now.

I worked with Jacqueline Baiada for 1 week on issues regarding love, past shame and some problems in my current life. Jacqueline was nothing but kind, attentive, compassionate and extremely helpful. She is very open-minded and non-judgemental, I felt the entire time I could tell her anything and she would respond with deep empathy and understanding. She tells you the truth always, and will kindly let you know when she thinks you are making an error in your thinking and your actions. Even though I only had a week with Jacqueline, I got an incredible amount out of our sessions because she is so knowledgeable and holds such great wisdom when it comes to human behaviour. She was super professional but it was also like talking with a friend, someone loving and personable and warm. Her priority is developing the relationship between her and her client, and she was very open when I asked her anything about herself, offering stories and wisdom from her own journey in life. I am very grateful for the immense time and support Jacqueline has given me, she is a truly wonderful counsellor who can help guide you through any hard stages in life.

I was skeptical at first about the online therapy. After a few times corresponding with Jacqueline she made it very easy for me to open up about things I normally wouldn't have. My comfort with her allowed her to help me deal with my issues, past and current, and has made me grow so much as a person and heal properly in ways I hadn't for many many years. She even has worksheets that are helpful and snippets of wisdom I commonly find myself jotting in my planner for reminders :)

Written on Aug 18, 2016 after therapy with Jacqueline for 2 days on issues concerning relationship, and intimacy-related

Jacquline is an exceptional counsellor and friend.
She is genuine, supportive and ACTUALLY cares. I had a counsellor before her who said she will "think about it and get back to me", who thereafter disappeared for 6 days.

I was ready to quit counseling until I was assigned to Jacquline, who reached out to me with two messages before I had a chance to reply.

The reason why I would recommend Jacquline to others is that she is not afraid to correct you when you are thinking wrongly. She doesn't support maladaptive thinking, but she also understands other peoples circumstances and is super empathetic.

Furthermore, Jacquline not only talks to me, but she provides worksheets and modules of methods to help ease anxiety. She has specific instructions of what to do in specific circumstances, and how to practice overcoming anxiety. She's really down to earth and I recommend anyone to her.

Hence, I hope anyone who needs help will find her. As long as you are ready to challenge yourself, and ready for change, you'll love her!!

Written on Jul 19, 2016 after therapy with Jacqueline for 1 month on issues concerning stress, anxiety, intimacy-related, and depression

I really appreciate the time with her.
