Healing & Hope
"The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction, not a destination."
– Carl Rogers
“We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope.”
― Martin Luther King Jr.

Jacqueline M Smith, MA, LMFT, LPC, LCDC
I’m Jacqueline! I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, a Licensed Professional Counselor, and a Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor in Texas. I am a collaborative practitioner, which means surrendering the invisible pressures to know it all, to be the expert, or to assume I know what's best for my client. I have learned that the client is always the expert of themselves, and I have learned how to be a co-traveler and follow their lead. Together, we create meaning from life’s most difficult lessons, strategize solutions to problems, and discover maps to navigate life’s perplexing terrain. As my Clients often say, “This really is a healing conversation.”
