About Jennifer
Jennifer DiGiovanni is a licensed social worker who helps people manage anxiety, depression, grief, and the stress of life changes. She brings 19 years of clinical experience in New York and aims to make therapy straightforward and useful for busy adults.
Her work is practical and direct. She focuses on what matters most to each person and helps them build clear steps to feel better day to day. Sessions emphasize coping skills, emotional awareness, and habits that support steady change.
Jennifer also pays attention to the effects of medical and caregiving demands. She supports people facing chronic illness, caregiver strain, and aging-related concerns, and she helps them balance care needs with personal well-being. This practical focus often includes setting manageable goals and problem-solving around daily routines.
Trauma, social anxiety, and relationship issues are common topics in her practice. She helps people process painful experiences and repair routines that get disrupted by stress or mood shifts. Intimacy concerns, addiction patterns, and anger are also addressed with a calm, direct style.
Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Sessions are collaborative and tailored to each person's goals. To begin, prospective clients follow the site's Start Therapy flow to match and schedule an initial appointment.
How ACT and CBT guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting pushed around by them. It includes exercises to clarify values and take small actions toward a meaningful life, which can help with depression, anxiety, and life transitions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses practical tools such as thought records, behavioral experiments, and exposure steps to reduce anxiety, manage mood symptoms, and change unhelpful patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will review your goals and preferences and suggest techniques from ACT or CBT as fits your needs. This is a collaborative decision made over the first few sessions rather than a fixed prescription.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and support consistent weekly work when leaving home is difficult. Confirm the current session options before booking to know what formats are offered, and discuss how to best structure appointments around work, caregiving, or health needs.
