About Jennifer

Jennifer Visconti is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in New York with seven years of clinical experience. She supports people facing anger, stress, anxiety, relationship strain, depression, substance use issues, grief, parenting challenges, and life transitions. Sessions focus on practical ways to reduce reactivity and improve daily functioning.

Her background includes work with people who have serious mental health needs and substance use concerns in correctional settings. That experience shaped a direct, steady approach to difficult feelings and behaviors. She uses straightforward conversation and concrete strategies rather than abstract theory.

Jennifer draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify values and take workable steps toward them. Mindfulness techniques are used to build awareness of emotional triggers.

Client-Centered Therapy and Motivational Interviewing inform how she holds sessions. That means a focus on respectful listening and on helping people find their own reasons to change. Sessions tend to be interactive and goal oriented.

She asks clients to name specific problems they want to address, then works with them on realistic skills and practice. Typical work includes managing anger, reducing impulsivity, improving communication, and addressing substance use patterns. The approach is practical, not judgmental, and aimed at everyday results.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, consistent steps toward those values despite strong feelings. It can be useful for anger, avoidance, and coping with life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, impulsivity, and anger management because it offers concrete skills to change reactions.

Mindfulness techniques are introduced to increase moment-to-moment awareness of triggers and bodily signs of escalation. These practices help people notice feelings earlier so they can try different responses.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to pick methods that fit their goals, preferences, and day-to-day life. That means trying strategies, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together.

The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They can also let someone continue work during a transition or arrange appointments around work or caregiving commitments.
