About Jennifer
Jennifer Dasti is a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Pennsylvania. She has six years of experience and focuses on helping people who are feeling anxious, stressed, depressed, or stuck during life changes. She aims to make therapy straightforward and approachable for worried parents and adults seeking support.
She uses a warm, down-to-earth style in sessions. Jennifer listens without judgment and helps clients name what is hard right now. She brings humor when appropriate and focuses on practical steps people can try between meetings.
Background and approach
Much of her work has been in crisis intervention, helping people through intense and urgent moments. That background shapes how she handles safety, pacing, and short-term coping skills. She helps individuals notice strengths they already have and build from there.
Jennifer draws on several evidence-informed approaches, including acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioral strategies, dialectical behavior therapy skills, mindfulness, and a client-centered stance. She tailors these methods to each person’s needs and values rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.
Her practice pays attention to concerns such as self-esteem, grief, trauma and abuse, bipolar and mood disorders, compassion fatigue, and issues around identity and LGBT concerns. She also supports people dealing with workplace stress, isolation, communication problems, and questions about life purpose. Finding the next step can feel hard.
Jennifer focuses on clear goals, small changes that add up, and building on what already works in a person’s life.
Therapeutic approaches for online sessions
Jennifer frequently uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then focus on small actions tied to personal values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches concrete strategies to change patterns that cause distress.She treats the choice of approach as a team effort. Early sessions are used to figure out which methods fit a person’s goals and daily life. The therapist adjusts tools and homework together with the client so work feels useful and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video allows face-to-face conversation and teaching of skills. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make it possible to get quick support, track progress, and send brief updates between sessions. These options give flexibility so therapy can fit around work, childcare, or school schedules.
