Jennifer Iannuzzi , LCSW

Jennifer Iannuzzi is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and parenting concerns, grief, low self-esteem, and life transitions. She draws on psychotherapy and coaching to help clients clarify goals and learn practical coping skills. Jennifer works from Connecticut and communicates in English.

Her style blends straightforward conversation with skill-building exercises. She focuses on helping people notice patterns that cause pain, try new ways of responding, and practice small changes between sessions. Jennifer emphasizes usable tools - breathing and mindfulness, communication techniques, and thought-challenging skills - rather than long lectures.

Her background includes a Bachelor of Arts from Clark University and a Master of Social Work from New York University. She holds LCSW licensure in Connecticut and Indiana and has eight years of clinical experience. Personal experience raising a child with special needs also informs her perspective on caregiving stress and family strain.

Jennifer often addresses attachment and intimacy-related issues, blended family challenges, body image, compassion fatigue, and parenting stress. She also helps people facing abandonment, guilt, shame, or questions about life purpose. Sessions combine emotionally focused conversation with practical techniques from cognitive behavioral and mindfulness approaches.

People who want a blend of talk therapy and coaching will find a collaborative approach. Jennifer aims to help clients set realistic goals, practice new skills, and track progress. The work is paced to match each person’s needs and day-to-day life.

Approaches that translate well to online care

Jennifer uses attachment-based work to help people understand patterns in close relationships and to build safer, more satisfying connections. This approach focuses on how early and current relationship experiences shape reactions and helps people try new ways of relating.

She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. CBT is practical and skill-focused, which makes it easy to practice between sessions and to track progress in online formats.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jennifer collaborates with each person to match methods to goals and preferences. She reviews what’s helping and adjusts techniques so the therapy fits the client's life and needs.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions are held. Video calls let people work face-to-face when longer conversation is needed. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is an issue. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, ongoing coaching, or quick skill reminders between conversations. These options make it simpler to fit sessions around work, caregiving, and daily routines, while keeping the focus on practical change.
