Jackie Ward, LMSW

Therapist in Texas


Here to help you find long term peace with your mind.

I believe that finding long term peace with your mind is possible.

I love working with clients who feel trapped by their own thoughts, especially after trying other forms of therapy that didn’t quite hit the mark. I get it because I’ve been there—caught in the spiral of obsessive doubt and intrusive thoughts, feeling like I was losing control. My own journey through OCD is what inspired me to help others. I know how isolating and terrifying it can feel, but I also know that healing is possible.

In our work together, I incorporate evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Exposure & Response Prevention (ERP), alongside tools I’ve picked up to help you live a more abundant life with unwanted thoughts and emotions. My approach is compassionate and outcome-driven, guiding you towards psychological flexibility, deeper self-understanding, and a better quality of life. Clients often tell me, “You really get it,” because I’ve walked this path myself and experienced firsthand how the right treatment can bring relief—and I’m committed to helping others find the same hope.

I’d be honored to walk alongside you on your journey toward relief, calm, and clarity. Your path to healing starts here.
