About Jacqueline
Jacqueline Lizarazo is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with five years of experience helping people manage stress and anxiety. She offers direct, straightforward support for people facing depression, grief, trauma, and struggles with self-esteem.

Jacqueline uses client-centered work to put the person's goals first. She pairs that with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for managing strong emotions.
Background and approach
Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are woven in to build awareness and motivation for change. Sessions are interactive and goal-oriented. Jacqueline gives homework and guides skills practice between meetings so progress continues outside sessions.
She expects effort and offers clear feedback to help people reach realistic aims. Her background includes five years in clinical practice and licensure as an LCSW in Illinois and Florida. That experience informs how she responds to trauma, grief, chronic stress, and life transitions.
Jacqueline draws on several approaches to tailor the work to each person's needs. People who prefer honest, direct coaching around emotional challenges often respond well to her style. She offers video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging for flexible access.
Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are accepted.
Practical approaches for online anxiety and stress work
Jacqueline draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT breaks concerns into manageable parts and teaches concrete skills for anxiety, depression, and stress management. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT skills can be useful when strong emotions or relationship conflicts get in the way of daily life.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jacqueline works together with each person to decide which tools to use based on their goals, needs, and preferences. She adjusts methods over time and checks in often to make sure the chosen strategies are helpful.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and situations. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction and skills demonstration. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, written reflections, or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to practice skills and stay consistent with therapy despite a busy life.
