About me

My Name is Jacqueline Forde I am an LPC- LCDC in the State of Texas. Mental strength is not the ability to stay out of darkness, it is the ability to sit present in the darkness knowing the light will shine again. If you are seeking help often times, it can be an overwhelming and a humbling experience. Finding a therapist that you feel comfortable and at ease can be a challenging, but once it is a good match, you will be able to overcome obstacles. Remember you are the expert in your own life. I provide no pressure, safe setting so that you can be yourself without judgement. We would work together customize your therapy experience to gain the value you are seeking. Some people want to work on a specific issue that is blocking their way, while others want to look deeper into their life. My approach is holistic; helping you heal I use a combination of approaches including Cognitive behavioral psychodynamic inner child and humanistic modalities to help you see how the past is impacting some of your difficulties today. By facilitating a process of becoming aware, I will help you relinquish unconsciousness beliefs that are holding you back and identify what you need to make a change. Our wounds are often openings to the best and most beautiful part of ourselves.

I am thankful for Ms. Jackie’s listening ear and understanding. I was in such a sad, sad state after my dad died. She helped me get on the path to healing.

I was originally very nervous when I scheduled my first appointment. Jacqueline Forde made me feel incredibly at ease from the moment I first messaged her. The next appointment I made a phone appointment instead of just messaging. This was the best decision I made because Jacqueline’s voice is so calming, and we were able to maximize my time with her over the phone. She is supportive, caring, and absolutely wonderful.

Jackie is amazing! She listens to my concerns or problems and she is very helpful with giving me advice on what I can do to help better myself. Jackie has helped me get through one of the toughest periods of my life and I couldn’t thank her enough!
