About Jennifer

LCSW-R clinician in New York with 19 years of experience, Jennifer DiGiovanni helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief, and life changes. She uses practical, evidence-based methods including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Sessions focus on clear steps people can use between meetings.

Jennifer works with individual adults on problems such as social anxiety, trauma and abuse, caregiver stress, mood disorders, and issues around intimacy and eating. She also takes on concerns linked to chronic pain, aging and geriatric issues, and addiction-related struggles. Her approach stays focused on what a person can try now to feel a little more in control.

In session she breaks down overwhelming problems into manageable tasks. Clients practice skills for managing worry, shifting unhelpful thought patterns, and accepting difficult feelings while moving toward chosen values. Conversations aim to be straightforward and action oriented rather than abstract.

Jennifer draws on about two decades of clinical work in New York. She combines Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) strategies with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques to address both thoughts and behavior. That mix is used for mood disorders, trauma responses, and anxiety conditions.

People who want a pragmatic, skill-focused therapist often find this style useful. She asks about current routines, goals, and obstacles, then builds small, concrete experiments to try between sessions. The emphasis is on workable changes that fit a person’s life and schedule.

Therapeutic methods and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take actions that align with those values despite difficult emotions. It is often used for anxiety, grief, and living with chronic health challenges.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is commonly applied to anxiety, depressive symptoms, and social phobia by teaching practical skills and behavioral experiments.

Choosing an approach is a cooperative process. The therapist will work with the client to identify goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what helps. Sessions are intended to test small changes and build habits that fit the person's life.

The original biography did not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a weekday break, reduce travel time, or use shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Some people find video helpful for face-to-face interaction, while others prefer audio for less bandwidth or shorter conversations. Ask about current session options when you complete the matching questionnaire.
