About Jacqueline

Jacqueline (Jacqui) Taub is a licensed clinical social worker who draws on cognitive behavioral techniques alongside client-centered and mindfulness-informed practices to help people navigate stress, anxiety, eating concerns, and self-esteem challenges. She emphasizes collaboration, meeting clients where they are, and using practical tools to build confidence and motivation.

Background and approach

With eight years of professional experience, Jacqui centers strengths and lived experience as key resources in therapy. Her work addresses relationship and family dynamics as well as issues common in young adulthood, including body image, communication and commitment concerns, workplace stress, and questions about life purpose and sexuality.

Jacqui blends evidence-informed strategies like CBT with motivational interviewing and solution-focused approaches to set achievable goals and build sustainable habits. She invites clients to take the first step, acknowledging that beginning therapy often requires courage, and supports them through a paced, respectful process focused on growth and self-compassion.

Integrating CBT and Mindfulness in Online Care

Jacqui commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical strategies for managing anxiety, stress, and eating-related concerns. She also draws on client-centered methods that focus on empathy, validation, and building a collaborative relationship, which can support self-esteem and motivation.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. She works with each person to explore which methods feel most useful, adjusting techniques over time based on goals and preferences so clients help shape their own treatment plan.

The online format includes video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to access consistent care while balancing work, school, or other commitments, and allow ongoing momentum between sessions through written check-ins or brief messages.
