About Jacqueline

Jacqueline Baiada is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 30 years of experience. She works with adults, couples, and families on relationship and parenting challenges. Her style is both caring and direct to help clients make real changes.

Background and approach

Jacqueline uses practical methods drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Narrative, Solution-Focused, and Trauma-Focused approaches. She adapts these methods to each person or couple and focuses on clear goals. Sessions often include straightforward skills practice and steps to try between meetings.

Her 30 years in the field include work in multiple settings with adults and families. That experience shapes how she balances empathy with challenge to help people move forward. She pays attention to family of origin issues, communication problems, and multicultural concerns.

Jacqueline sees issues like infidelity, young adult transitions, first responder stress, and phobias with practical strategies. She accepts international clients and offers sessions in English and Danish. If someone is ready to start, she guides them through the next steps to set up sessions.

Approaches that guide online family and relationship work

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going. In sessions she uses simple exercises to test unhelpful beliefs and to build new coping skills for anxiety, anger, or stress.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches short practices to increase present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity. These techniques often help with emotional regulation, parenting stress, and the aftereffects of trauma.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jacqueline collaborates with each person or couple to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. She adjusts plans over time based on what is working and what needs to change.

Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy family schedules and to keep momentum between meetings. They allow consistent access to a licensed professional from different locations and support step-by-step skill practice between sessions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.

Narrative Therapy

Looking at the story you have come to tell about yourself, and where it came from. The work is in separating the problem from your identity and finding accounts that fit you better.
