About Jacqueline

Jacqueline Meredith is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 15 years of clinical experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship struggles, and a wide array of other concerns.

Background and approach

She emphasizes a compassionate, affirming stance that encourages exploration of each person’s strengths and values while addressing practical symptoms and patterns. Jacqueline integrates evidence-based methods to tailor care to individual needs and goals.

Her work covers issues such as grief, addiction, bipolar disorder, intimacy and sexual concerns, body image and eating or sleeping difficulties, parenting and caregiver stress, and the emotional fallout from abandonment or adoption and foster care.

She also supports people facing chronic illness or pain, co-occurring conditions, codependency, communication and commitment problems, and the impacts of disaster or trauma. Jacqueline draws on therapeutic tools including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), and EMDR to create targeted, practical strategies.

Clients can expect a collaborative process that balances skill building with deeper emotional work, aimed at increasing resilience and clarity as they move through life transitions and healing work.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Options

Jacqueline commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and trial new behavioral experiments that reduce symptoms like anxiety, low mood, or sleep disruption. She also incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to support clients in clarifying values and building psychological flexibility when coping with difficult feelings. In some cases she draws from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improved interpersonal effectiveness.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jacqueline works with each person to understand their goals, preferences, and life context and then blends methods to fit those needs rather than applying a single technique in isolation. This allows therapy to remain practical while also addressing deeper patterns that maintain distress.

Online therapy with Jacqueline is available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexible options to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These formats can make it easier to maintain consistent work on skills, access timely support between meetings, and engage in therapy from wherever the client is located within Florida.
