About Jessica
Jessica Del Gaudio is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York with seven years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people cope with stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, grief, relationship problems, and life transitions. Jessica aims to meet each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.
Her approach is flexible and collaborative. She listens first, then tailors conversations and a plan to what matters to each person. Sessions tend to focus on practical steps people can try between meetings, and on building the skills needed to handle strong feelings and difficult situations.
Jessica draws on a range of methods to match different needs. She uses techniques from Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify what they want and find their own reasons to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps break down unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns into manageable pieces. Attachment-Based and Client-Centered ideas guide how she builds trust and centers each person's experience.
She works with concerns across mood, relationships, and behavior, including depression, bipolar symptoms, ADHD, eating and sleep struggles, low self-esteem, intimacy issues, and family stress. Jessica also addresses specific topics such as abandonment, caregiver strain, body image, kink-aware issues, and separation or divorce.
Jessica believes starting therapy takes courage and that progress often comes from small, steady steps. She supports people who want to make changes and helps them find workable strategies that fit everyday life.

Approaches to change and how they work online
Jessica uses Motivational Interviewing to help people weigh their options and find personal reasons to change; this approach focuses on listening and guiding rather than telling. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice their thoughts and feelings while taking steps toward values-driven goals. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how relationship patterns affect how people feel and respond, and it helps rebuild more secure ways of relating.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Jessica will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying things, checking what helps, and adjusting over time rather than committing to one fixed plan up front.
The practical upside of online therapy is that it can fit more easily into a busy life. Online work can reduce travel time, make scheduling simpler, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Jessica will help match the session style to the client’s schedule and goals so therapy can be a usable part of everyday life. -
