Jessica Minieri

I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and social worker (LCSW) in Connecticut with over thirty years of vocational, individual and group counseling experience. My counseling philosophy is: "People don't care what you know until they know you care." For half of my career, I've worked with adults with disabilities to help them discern and navigate a vocational path. For the other half of my career, I've provided individual counseling to teens and adults who have had difficulty establishing goals and regulating their emotions. I use a variety of clinical approaches, especially those from a cognitive-behavioral perspective (using strategies from CPT, EMDR, DBT, Socratic Questioning, and Motivational Interviewing). I enjoy helping people explore their values and goals within a compassionate frame. Please message me to find out additional times to meet (that do not show as available on the Grow calendar). I am available most weekday evenings and weekends.
