About Jacqueline

Jacqueline Soriano is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with six years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and compassion fatigue. Jacqueline also helps people dealing with issues like attachment and abandonment, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, addiction, and communication problems.

Her method is collaborative and short-term when appropriate. She uses acceptance and commitment principles, mindfulness practices, and solution-focused tools to help people reconnect with their values and build practical coping skills. Sessions concentrate on concrete steps that can be used between meetings.

Jacqueline often supports people after major life changes or loss, and those managing the effects of past trauma. She addresses feelings of emptiness, guilt, shame, and impulsivity with straightforward talk and coping strategies. She also has experience with first responder stress and hospice and end-of-life counseling.

In sessions she focuses on what someone can do now to feel steadier. That might mean practicing mindfulness, clarifying priorities, or testing small behavioral changes. The approach emphasizes real skills and short-term gains alongside longer-term work for deeper issues.

She offers therapy in English and does not take international clients. Her work operates through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How her approaches work for online sessions

Jacqueline draws on acceptance and commitment ideas and mindfulness practices to guide online work. Acceptance and commitment concepts focus on clarifying what matters to a person and taking small actions that align with those values; this can help with anxiety, depression, and feelings of emptiness. Mindfulness practices teach simple attention exercises and grounding techniques to reduce reactivity and improve day-to-day coping with stress and trauma.

She also uses solution-focused tools that aim for clear, achievable steps between sessions. Those techniques help when someone needs practical changes fast, such as managing caregiver tasks, improving communication, or reducing avoidance. Figuring out which mix of approaches fits best is part of the first weeks of work and is decided together based on goals and preferences.

The practical benefit of online sessions is that they can fit into a busy early-adult life. Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to schedule brief check-ins, practice skills in everyday settings, or meet without traveling. Licensed professionals can adapt the pace and tools to match a person's schedule and needs.
