About Jacqueline
Jacqueline Soriano is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with six years of clinical experience. She offers straightforward, trauma-informed care and focuses on helping adults who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, or depression. Her style is collaborative and compassionate, with an emphasis on practical steps people can use right away.
She meets clients where they are and tailors work to each person’s story. Sessions often focus on identifying values, managing difficult emotions, and building coping tools for day-to-day life.
Background and approach
Jacqueline draws on mindfulness and acceptance-based ideas alongside focused problem-solving to keep therapy relevant and goal-directed. Her background includes supporting people through trauma and abuse, addiction concerns, and major life transitions. She also addresses caregiver strain, chronic illness and pain, and issues tied to attachment and abandonment.
Jacqueline pays attention to how guilt, shame, and compassion fatigue affect wellbeing and decision making. In sessions she uses short-term strategies alongside deeper processing when needed. That can mean learning a simple breathing practice one week and working on communication skills the next.
The pace is set by each client’s needs and readiness. Jacqueline practices in New York and conducts work in English. She offers a range of remote session formats to fit different schedules.
People who prefer direct, practical therapy that still leaves room for empathy may find her approach accessible and easy to use.
Practical approaches for online healing
Jacqueline uses evidence-based techniques that are clear and usable in remote sessions. Acceptance-based methods involve noticing difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them; this helps people build a steadier daily routine and reconnect with what matters. Mindfulness practices teach simple attention skills and breathing strategies to reduce overwhelm and improve emotional regulation during stressful moments. Solution-focused techniques concentrate on small, concrete steps and goals so progress is visible and manageable from week to week.Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. The therapist will ask about goals, daily challenges, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together the client and therapist try methods, adjust pace, and pick tools that fit the person’s lifestyle and preferences rather than forcing a single model.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to meet different needs. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and more interactive exercises. Phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let clients share thoughts between meetings and get brief check-ins or reminders. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, and other commitments.
