I am a psychotherapist with 20+ years of experience in psychotherapy. I recently obtained by RN. My background includes working in school settings, inpatient psychiatric hospitals, and outpatient clinics. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment that allows clients to explore obstacles with concerns related to anxiety, depression, and/or self-care. I focus on helping clients develop assertive communication & boundaries with themselves and those around them that can help improve their quality of life. Counseling can foster personal development in whatever way you may be seeking and help build the life you so deeply deserve. If that's what you're looking for, I'm here when you're ready to share.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session you can expect to find a space that create a safe environment for you to share your thoughts and emotions freely. Together, we'll begin to explore different parts of yourself, focusing on processing and releasing any trauma you’ve experienced. You’ll also learn techniques to let go of self-judgment, allowing space for healing and growth. Most importantly, this session will be the start of building a meaningful connection and establishing a path toward deeper self-awareness and personal transformation.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I feel my greatest strengths include creating a safe and non-judgmental space for clients to explore their emotions, fostering strong therapeutic rapport, and utilizing evidence-based approaches tailored to each individual's unique needs. I excel in active listening, empathy, and helping clients develop practical coping strategies. Additionally, I am committed to ongoing professional development, ensuring that I stay informed of the latest advancements in therapy techniques to provide the highest level of care.

Jennifer was validating, comforting in opening up and offered different perspectives of situations while being open minded to both me and my partner. She was genuine and had a common sense approach to different situations and offered advice to what we need to work on in order to build our relationship together.

Dr. Delvecchio has provided counseling to my sister, who is intellectually disabled, for two years. Dr. D does a great job of making her feel comfortable and heard while also challenging unhealthy thought patterns. She is warm and authentic, intelligent, and patient. We are so grateful for her!
