About Jessica
Jessica Panagiotidis is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in New York with six years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, depression, and issues around self-esteem. Jessica also lists blended family issues, divorce and separation, and related transitions among her areas of focus.
She uses straightforward, evidence-based approaches to help people manage symptoms and make practical changes. Sessions are collaborative and goal-focused, with attention to coping skills and concrete steps clients can use between meetings. The work often centers on improving communication, reducing overwhelm, and stabilizing mood so day-to-day functioning gets easier.
Jessica draws on clinical social work and vocational rehabilitation knowledge to address both emotional and practical challenges. That background can help when work, money, or role changes complicate family life. She helps clients clarify priorities and consider realistic options when juggling jobs, parenting, and relationships.
When blended household dynamics are part of the problem, she helps individuals sort loyalty concerns, set boundaries, and plan new routines. For people facing separation, co-parenting, or domestic violence histories, sessions focus on safety, planning, and steadying responses to stress.
Therapy with Jessica typically emphasizes short-term strategies such as cognitive tools, solution-focused planning, and strengths-based steps. She also brings trauma-informed care into work with panic, PTSD, and self-harm related concerns. People who want clear, practical support around family transitions and personal distress will find a direct, experienced clinician ready to listen.
Evidence-based approaches and online sessions
Jessica uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques in a practical way. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and to build concrete skills for managing anxiety, panic, and depression. Solution-Focused techniques concentrate on small, actionable steps and immediate changes that help when routines and roles feel unsettled.Those methods are combined with strengths-based and trauma-informed thinking so work addresses both current problems and safety or stress histories. Choosing the right mix is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, try approaches, and adjust plans based on what helps most for each person’s situation.
Confirm the session formats before booking since specific online options are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. If you need a quieter appointment, or a session that fits a work break, that practical scheduling can be discussed when arranging sessions.
