About Jiacheng
Jiacheng (Jacqueline) Liu is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with four years of clinical experience. She works with adults on common concerns that affect life at home, including stress, anxiety, depression, parenting strain, relationship issues, and grief. She also addresses trauma, eating concerns, addictions, sleep problems, self-esteem, and ADHD. Sessions are offered in English, Mandarin, and Cantonese.
Her style centers on helping people name and understand thoughts and feelings. She uses practical cognitive-behavioral tools to notice and shift unhelpful thinking. She also draws on client-centered work to keep conversations focused on the person's goals and perspectives. DBT skills are used when needed to manage strong emotions and improve coping.
Jacqueline has worked in private practice, a national residential treatment facility, and psychiatric outpatient settings. That mix of settings means she has experience with both short-term skills work and longer-term support. She often combines skill-building with open conversation about relationship patterns, family stress, and personal values.
In sessions she helps people practice new ways of thinking and handling conflict at home. She offers straightforward tools for day-to-day problems, such as sleeping difficulties, parenting pressure, and communication breakdowns. She will also discuss practical steps for coping with grief, separation, or major life changes.
To begin, a short questionnaire and an initial scheduling step are used to match a person with a therapist and set a first appointment. Cost varies with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How sessions work
How her approaches work in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts without getting stuck and then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for stress, avoidance, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing different responses. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and body image concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and handling relationship conflict.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Jacqueline will discuss which methods match a person's goals and preferences, and adapt techniques over time. The decision is collaborative and may mix elements from ACT, CBT, and DBT based on what helps most.
Confirm current session options before booking to know which formats are available. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins between commitments, and remove travel time. They also let people work with a therapist who speaks English, Mandarin, or Cantonese even when not local. Practical considerations like quieter surroundings, camera use, or doing a shorter phone-style check-in can be discussed when scheduling.
