About Jeremy

Jeremy Barbagallo is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Connecticut with 25 years of clinical experience guiding people through complicated emotional and relational challenges.

Background and approach

He draws on a mix of evidence-informed methods to tailor care to each person's situation, addressing concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem struggles, and major life transitions. His practice also attends to attachment patterns, relationship and communication problems, blended family issues, and a range of identity and intimacy topics including BDSM and alternative sex culture.

Clients find a steady, empathetic presence in his work, with an emphasis on practical skills and deeper self-understanding. Jeremy uses tools from cognitive behavioral and mindfulness frameworks alongside client-centered and solution-focused strategies to help people reduce distress and build coping strengths.

His style balances direct skill teaching with attentive listening and collaboration, aiming to help people manage symptoms while exploring underlying patterns and values. Offering services across several formats, Jeremy supports people seeking help for substance-related concerns, eating and body-image issues, caregiver stress, codependency, and family of origin wounds.

He frames therapy as a cooperative process focused on realistic goals and gradual change, helping clients move toward greater clarity and functioning.

Therapeutic approaches for online care

Jeremy often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; this approach is practical and useful for issues like anxiety, depression, and stress management. He also employs client-centered therapy, which emphasizes empathic listening and collaboration so clients can explore values and personal meaning at their own pace. Mindfulness therapy is another tool he uses to cultivate present-moment awareness and coping skills for emotional regulation and rumination.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. He works with each person to determine which methods fit their needs and goals, adapting techniques over time and combining strategies when that best supports progress. Clients are invited to give feedback so treatment stays aligned with their preferences and life circumstances.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for scheduling and allow therapy to fit into varied routines. These options can make it easier to maintain continuity of care across busy weeks, support consistent practice of skills between sessions, and provide different ways to engage depending on comfort and accessibility.
