About Jennifer
Her experience includes serving as a Program Director at a residential treatment program for teens who had been in prison, where she provided individual, group, and family counseling. Early in her career she served in the Peace Corps in Jamaica as a Medical Social Worker and helped establish a Women's Crisis Center addressing domestic violence, sexual assault, and abuse. More recently she completed a two-year program in advanced spiritual psychology, which broadened the depth of her therapeutic perspective.
Jennifer works with a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, grief, eating issues, parenting challenges, anger, low self-esteem, coping with life changes, and ADHD. She emphasizes the importance of a strong therapeutic connection and creates a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore change, build coping skills, and work toward a more peaceful, loving life.
Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Jennifer Vandigo
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a respectful, empathetic relationship in which the client is seen as the expert on their own life; it helps individuals explore feelings, clarify values, and gain confidence in their decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical skills to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, often addressing anxiety, depression, and stress-related patterns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people understand and reorganize emotional responses within close relationships, making it useful for couples and family concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Jennifer works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and personal preferences. Together they explore what feels most helpful and adjust the plan as progress unfolds.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility to fit therapy into busy schedules and varied lifestyles. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care from different locations and allow clients to choose the communication style that feels most comfortable while working with licensed professionals and therapists.
