About Jessica

Jessica Del Gaudio is a licensed mental health counselor practicing in New York who brings seven years of clinical experience to her work. She has supported people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, grief and loss, relationship difficulties, depression, and a range of life changes.

Background and approach

Jessica emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion as the foundation for care and adapts conversations and treatment plans to each person's situation. Her approach draws on evidence-informed methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside ACT, DBT, attachment-based, and client-centered techniques.

That mix allows her to focus on skills, values-driven action, emotional regulation, and strengthening interpersonal patterns as needed. Jessica frames seeking help as an act of courage and aims to empower clients to pursue more satisfying and balanced lives.

She accepts international clients and conducts sessions through multiple online formats, tailoring pacing and interventions to individual goals and preferences. Prospective clients are invited to begin with a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

Practical therapeutic approaches adapted for online care

Jessica often integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into her work, focusing on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) complements this by helping people clarify values, practice acceptance of difficult experiences, and commit to meaningful action when facing life transitions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and life context to decide whether CBT, ACT, or attachment-informed strategies best fit the individual's needs, and will adjust methods as therapy progresses.

Online therapy with this clinician is available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexible ways to attend sessions from different locations. These formats can make scheduling easier around work, caregiving, or other commitments while allowing the therapist to use the same practical skills-based and values-focused techniques as in-person work.
