About Judith

Judith Jacques is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 21 years of experience. She works with adults on common and complex concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationship trouble, parenting strains, eating issues, addictions, grief, and anger. She also supports people facing mood challenges like depression and bipolar disorder and those living with ADHD or compassion fatigue.

She uses practical, solution-focused work to look for small, useful changes. Judith draws from Client-Centered and Cognitive Behavioral ideas to help people notice patterns and try different responses. She also brings relationship tools into sessions when partners or parenting matter.

Judith has a long history of working with blended families, separation and divorce, and adoption or foster care matters. She has additional experience with autism spectrum issues, aging and caregiver stress, body image, and co-occurring conditions. That mix of topics means she often helps people juggle several challenges at once.

Her style is straightforward and down-to-earth. Conversations focus on what is getting in the way now and what can be tried next. Sessions move toward practical steps you can test between meetings, and Judith pays attention to realistic goals for daily life.

Outside of clinical work she is a parent and grandparent, and those life roles inform her sense of what daily family life looks like. Prospective clients who want to start are asked to use the site's matching process and schedule a first session to see how the approach fits them.

How Judith Uses Therapy Methods Online

Judith draws on Client-Centered work and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her practice. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and helping people find their own solutions, which is useful for sorting feelings about anger and relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors to spot patterns and to practice new ways of responding when anger comes up.

She also uses Solution-Focused techniques that identify small, practical steps to change what isn't working now. That approach is aimed at testing manageable actions between sessions rather than promising big immediate changes. Together these methods help people set clear, short-term goals and track whether new strategies make daily life easier.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Judith will discuss goals and preferences and help choose methods that match what the client wants to try. This is a collaborative process where adjustments are expected as needs change.
