About Jacqueline
Jacqueline Baiada is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in North Carolina with 30 years of experience. She works with adults on relationship, parenting, anger, stress, anxiety, trauma and life changes. She also supports people managing ADHD and those seeking coaching for practical coping strategies.
Her work covers many kinds of trauma, including emotional, physical, and sexual abuse. She helps with grief, depression, post-traumatic stress, and phobias. Communication problems, family of origin issues, infidelity, and first responder concerns are also within her focus.
Jacqueline describes her style as caring and challenging. She combines brief solution-focused methods with trauma-focused and cognitive behavioral ideas. Narrative therapy elements are also used to help people reframe their stories.
In a session she works collaboratively to set clear goals and practical steps. Conversations often include skills practice, reframing unhelpful thoughts, and short-term strategies to reduce distress. She adapts the mix of techniques based on what is helping the person in front of her.
She has worked in a variety of settings over three decades. That experience informs a straightforward approach to problem solving. People can expect direct feedback and concrete options for change.
To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The process is intended to make it easier to start addressing relationship and parenting strains as well as trauma-related concerns.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Jacqueline uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. CBT is practical and skill-focused, often useful for anxiety, anger, and stress management.She also draws on Trauma-Focused Therapy to work through the effects of emotional, physical, or sexual abuse and post-traumatic stress. This approach focuses on processing traumatic memories in manageable steps and building coping strategies.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will collaborate with the client to choose which methods to use based on needs, goals, and how someone responds to early sessions. Adjustments are made as progress is seen.
