About Jesse
Jesse Schiff helps people who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or burned out. He meets clients with calm attention and straight talk. He aims to make it easier to name problems and take small, workable steps toward change.
Jesse is a licensed clinical social worker - LCSW - based in New York with nine years of experience. He commonly helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, addiction concerns, grief, trauma, relationship and intimacy issues, and parenting strain.
Background and approach
He also focuses on caregiver stress, workplace problems, money worries, and isolation. In sessions he creates an open, nonjudgmental space where people can speak honestly about what they are feeling. He uses client-centered therapy to follow what matters most to the person in the room.
He also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and try new ways of responding. Practical, step-by-step work is balanced with attention to emotions and values. That can mean tracking patterns between sessions, trying small behavioral experiments, or talking through difficult conversations before they happen.
Jesse aims to help people build skills they can use day to day. He emphasizes collaboration and clear goals. People leave sessions with concrete ideas to test and a plan for the next steps.
Jesse offers help for a range of life changes and ongoing struggles, and supports clients as they try new approaches.

Approaches and how online therapy fits
Jesse uses client-centered therapy, which means he listens first and follows the client's priorities. This approach is useful when someone needs space to sort out feelings, decide values, or work through relationship and life changes.He also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT often involves trying small experiments and practicing new ways of thinking to reduce anxiety, manage mood, or change unhelpful habits.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jesse will collaborate with each person to figure out which methods match their goals and comfort level. That decision is revisited over time as needs change.
Offering sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging makes therapy more flexible. Video calls let people use visual cues for deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when screen time is limited or bandwidth is low. Live chat and text messaging support brief check-ins, ongoing problem-solving, or people who prefer writing to speaking. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and different daily routines.
