About Jennifer
Jennifer DiGiovanni is a New York LCSW-R with 19 years of clinical experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, relationship strain, grief, and life changes. Sessions focus on practical steps people can use day to day to manage strong emotions and recurring patterns.
Jennifer draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. In session she talks through real situations that cause anger or anxiety and looks for small changes that reduce tension. Work can include tracking reactions, testing new ways of responding, and practicing skills between meetings.
She also addresses issues linked to long-term health or caregiving, chronic pain, mood disorders, and trauma. That often means managing worry about the future, navigating guilt or shame, and restoring routine after loss or illness. Sessions move at a practical pace and focus on skills people can use outside of therapy.
Jennifer aims to be straightforward and calm in her style. She collaborates with clients to set clear, achievable goals and revisits them as progress is made. Meeting the realities of everyday life is part of the plan, including work, relationships, and family demands.
People who want direct, skills-based work on anger, coping, or mood regulation may find this approach useful. Before booking, confirm current session options and how the subscription model works for your area.
How sessions work
How ACT and CBT shape online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on taking steps that align with personal values even when difficult emotions are present, which can help with anger that keeps recurring or gets in the way of relationships.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses short exercises to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and to try new behaviors. This approach is often useful for anxiety, low mood, and anger responses that follow predictable patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to select techniques from ACT and CBT that match goals and everyday constraints. That might mean prioritizing brief behavioral experiments one week and values-focused exercises the next.
Session formats are not listed in the original biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, scheduling a shorter check-in during a work break, avoiding travel time, or choosing a quieter time of day. Therapists help clients adapt exercises so they work in daily routines and responsibilities rather than as a separate task.
