Hi! My name is Jacqueline Lizarazo, and I go by Jackie. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in therapy for individuals, children, and couples, with a focus on grief, depression, anxiety, PTSD, and sexual abuse.
Why Choose Me:
I want you to read the following passages:
On Abuse: “I lived in a glass house into which my mother could look at any time. In a glass house, however, you cannot conceal anything without giving yourself away, except by hiding it under the ground. And then you cannot see it yourself, either.”
On Depression: “Trees aren’t supposed to display fruit; they’re supposed to produce it. As much as I wanted to see results, I knew that I had to wait. The tree had to become healthy and mature before it could produce the fruit, and that takes time.”
If what you read resonates with you, this is the type of therapy I offer. I push, and sometimes might make you cry—not to harm, but for growth. I deeply care about my patients and only want the best for you.
I am not judgmental; I am here to listen and provide feedback. I often ask myself the question: if I were sitting where you are, would I come back? And the answer is yes. I give homework, so don’t expect it to be easy unless we need it to be. I am flexible, and my schedule is pretty open to fit your needs.
We’re going to have days where we just catch up and talk about what happened that week but be prepared to talk about your past. I believe together we can grow into the person you want to be.

Palm Harbor, FL - Accepting clients in FL
I’m CJ Backer, a licensed marriage and family therapist who walks alongside individuals, as they navigate the deeper questions of identity, purpose, and emotional well-being.
My work centers on helping people untangle from the expectations, roles, and pressures that can blur our sense of self. Whether you're wrestling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or simply feeling stuck in a life that looks “fine” on the outside but feels disconnected within—I offer a space to explore, reflect, and heal.
In our work together, you can expect a compassionate, non-judgmental space where you're seen and heard beyond your symptoms and roles. I draw from evidence-based practices like CBT, DBT, and motivational interviewing to support meaningful growth and lasting change.
Ultimately, I help clients reconnect with who they are beneath the roles and responsibilities—so they can move forward with more clarity, groundedness, and self-trust.

Swannanoa, NC - Accepting clients in FL
Hello! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor/Candidate (LPC-S/C) and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP) in the states of North Carolina, South Carolina, and Florida. I have roughly 11 years of experience treating anxiety and depression in adults. I love working with adults who have survived past trauma as I provide clients with skills to help regulate the nervous system before we even process past trauma. This helps the person to stay grounded and become more confident in regulating their own emotional state.
