About Jessica
Jessica Del Gaudio is a New York licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with seven years of experience in clinical work. She focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, and addictive behaviors. Jessica aims to meet each person where they are and build a plan that fits their life.
Her approach is respectful and straightforward. She adapts conversations and strategies to each person's needs instead of using one-size-fits-all techniques. Sessions emphasize practical steps people can try between meetings, along with time to talk through feelings and patterns that get in the way of day-to-day life.
Jessica draws on several evidence-informed methods, including acceptance and commitment work, attachment-focused thinking, and cognitive behavioral techniques. She also uses client-centered and dialectical strategies when those approaches suit a person’s goals. These tools are used to help with relationship struggles, self-esteem, sleep and eating concerns, codependency, ADHD challenges, and mood issues.
People often come for help after big life changes, during periods of grief, or when coping skills feel overwhelmed. Jessica pays attention to how attachment history and communication patterns affect relationships and intimacy. She supports people dealing with body image, caregiving stress, commitment concerns, and other complicated life situations.
If someone wants to start, she asks that they select the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire. That helps schedule sessions based on the therapist’s availability and creates a plan that fits the person’s needs.
How Jessica’s approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is about learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while taking steps that match personal values. It can help people who feel stuck by focusing on small, value-driven actions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current connections and communication; it can be useful for people struggling with intimacy or codependency. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down unhelpful thoughts and behaviors into manageable parts and teaches practical tools for changing them, which helps with anxiety, depression, sleep, and some eating concerns.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jessica works together with each person to choose which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. She may combine tools from different approaches and adjust the plan as progress is made or priorities shift.
Confirm current session options before booking to be sure they match your situation. Online therapy can make it easier to fit care into a busy life, for example by saving commute time or allowing shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people continue work when travel or relocation happens. If you want to start, use the Start Therapy button and complete the short matching questionnaire to schedule according to the therapists availability.
