   About Jennifer

   Jennifer Iannuzzi is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in Connecticut who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and challenges around relationships and parenting. She blends psychotherapy and life coaching to focus on practical steps and clearer direction. Her work also covers concerns such as self-esteem, sleeping troubles, career shifts, compassion fatigue, and ADHD-related struggles.

   Jennifer uses straightforward strategies to build skills and insight. Sessions emphasize tools you can try between meetings and ways to handle setbacks when they come up. She draws on several approaches, including Motivational Interviewing, to support motivation and change while also using techniques from cognitive behavioral and attachment-based work.

   Her background includes a Bachelor of Arts from Clark University and a Master of Social Work from New York University. She has eight years of clinical experience and also brings personal experience from raising a child with special needs, which shapes her practical focus and empathy.

   In a session with Jennifer, expect a focus on goals you name together and on small, achievable steps toward them. She pairs skill teaching with conversations that help uncover patterns behind emotional difficulties. The aim is clearer choices and more manageable day-to-day coping.

2. How approaches like Motivational Interviewing fit into online care

   Motivational Interviewing focuses on helping people find and strengthen their own reasons to change. It uses guided conversation to build motivation and clarify personal goals, often useful for issues like procrastination, behavior change, or feeling stuck.
   
   Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationships shape current emotional patterns. It helps people understand attachment dynamics and work on more secure ways of relating and handling emotional triggers.
   
   Jennifer will help you decide which approach fits best by talking about your goals and trying methods together. Finding the right fit is collaborative - she works with clients to adjust strategies as progress and needs evolve.
   
   For online work, please confirm the specific session options before booking since formats were not listed in the profile. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel, and allow more flexible scheduling. Some formats also let sessions be shorter or use audio-only when that better suits a day at work or limited bandwidth. Talk with the therapist during scheduling about the logistics that will work best for your routine.
