About Jesse

Jesse Palermo, LCSW, is licensed in New York and has 14 years of clinical experience. He works with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship concerns, bipolar disorder, depression, grief, and a wide range of other issues. He uses client-centered dialogue and practical therapeutic methods to help people manage symptoms and make concrete changes.

Jesse focuses on straightforward, respectful conversation. Sessions center on what the client brings and on building coping skills. He uses techniques drawn from cognitive behavioral work and dialectical behavior strategies when they fit the client's needs.

His practice also addresses intimacy-related problems, eating and sleeping concerns, anger, self-esteem, career transitions, and compassion fatigue. Additional areas include attachment issues, body image, caregiver stress, and concerns related to kink and alternative sexual culture. He lists care for people dealing with multiple co-occurring problems as part of his work.

Jesse describes his approach as adaptive and collaborative. He aims to shape treatment around what helps a person in daily life. That can mean setting small goals, practicing new skills between sessions, or talking through patterns that contribute to distress.

People can expect practical conversation, focused skill practice, and regular review of progress. He places attention on communication patterns and decision points that often shape relationships and personal functioning.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what the client says. It aims to create a cooperative relationship and to center sessions on the client's priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses goal-setting and specific practice to change unhelpful patterns and can help with anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jesse will discuss different methods and choose what fits a person's goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can shift as progress is reviewed.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, since the biography does not list specific online options. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it straightforward to continue regular skill practice between appointments. Ask about current scheduling options when setting up the first visit.
