“Jennifer is wonderful. I started seeing Jennifer when I was going through one of the lowest points in my life. She is supportive, and actively listens. Jen provides great tools to for navigating difficult relationships, setting goals and boundaries, as well as diffusing anxiety. Some of her best attributes are her empathy and honesty. She isn’t afraid to shine light on things you may not being doing in your own self interest — but without judgement. She creates a very comfortable space where you feel like you’re sitting down to chat with a trusted friend rather than a stranger. I would highly recommend her services. ”

Getting to know Jennifer Gutmann

I am deeply committed to supporting individuals on their journey towards healing, growth, and empowerment. With a holistic and client-centered approach, I strive to create a safe and nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. My work is rooted in the belief that each person has the inherent strength and resilience to overcome life's challenges. I collaborate closely with clients to develop personalized treatment plans that address their unique needs and goals. Whether you're struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, or navigating life transitions, I am here to provide compassionate support and evidence-based interventions. Drawing from a variety of therapeutic modalities, including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based approaches, trauma-informed care, and narrative therapy, I tailor my interventions to meet the specific needs of each individual. I believe in empowering clients to cultivate self-awareness, build coping skills, and develop healthy coping mechanisms to navigate life's ups and downs more effectively. My approach is strength-based, collaborative, and culturally sensitive, honoring the diverse backgrounds and identities of each client. I earned my Bachelor's degree from Touro University and hold a Master's in Social Work from Fordham University, which have both shaped my clinical perspective and commitment to evidence-based practice. I am dedicated to walking alongside you on your journey towards healing, growth, and self-discovery. Together, we can work towards creating positive change and fostering a greater sense of well-being in your life.

More information on payments and coverage

I am an In-Network provider with Northwell Direct Tier 1 plans. We provide out-of-network billing support for reimbursement for all other clients. If we are not in-network with your plan we will work to get you significant reimbursement for the cost of your sessions. We submit claims on behalf of our patients so that you don’t have to deal with your insurance company. Here’s how works. Before you start therapy we will collect your insurance information, check your insurance benefits, provide you with an estimate of those benefits, and then allow you to make the most educated decision possible about your investment in therapy. If you decide to work with us, we will submit your insurance claims every week and give you access to the portal to check the status of the reimbursements. It is our goal to always remain transparent and to make the process of insurance reimbursements as clear as possible.

Jenn has been great! She’s very relatable and been a huge help for me in managing anxiety and postpartum life

Professional and listens to the client. Always on time. Wants to help.
Very professional and responsive. Highly recommended.

Could not continuously look at the screen. Kept looking to the side. Notifications repeatedly went off that she was receiving other messages or emails. While it was clear that she was hearing me, the wholly uncomfortable situation was made worse by how often her face went into what seemed to be judgemental expressions at what I was sharing with her. Roll the dice, sure. Why not?

Jennifer is great! She's empathetic and listens carefully. She encourages you to challenge yourself and get out of your comfort zone. To view things through a different lens. She's also honest when things you do might not be working out for you and you have to try a different way. Jennifer provided me with the tools I needed to communicate my needs and my feelings in a way that would not be perceived as confrontational or as an argument. She also encouraged me to practice assertiveness and discernment. I truly enjoyed working with her.
Jennifer is a very skilled clinician. She is professional, timely and has excellent insight. I highly recommend Jennifer for anyone looking a therapist. She was able to help me see my situation more clearly and make practical choices for a better quality of life.
Jennifer is a great therapist for both children and adults! My son has been seeing her for over 3 years, and she was able to build a rapport with him from the get go. I highly recommend her.
This might be the longest review you’ve ever read, but I’m more than happy to share my thoughts about Jennifer. I was paired up with Jennifer in 2020 when I was at my lowest point, struggling with domestic violence, alcoholism and the feeling of giving up on life. From the start, Jennifer has made me feel heard and support, never pushing me away even on the days we weren’t scheduled to meet. Her guidance has been invaluable, always offering me informative and practical help, and directing me to resources beyond her practice when needed. I can say certainly without Jennifer I may not be here today. I am deeply grateful for everything she has done and accomplished. Having her by my side has made be able to accomplish anything that life throws my way. It might sound like I’m gushing, but I genuinely mean it when I say I love Jennifer and she hold a special place in my heart. I hope everyone has a Jennifer in their life, bc I know 1st hand the impact she can have.
Jennifer Gutmann is an excellent therapist. Kind, compassionate, and a good listener. She is also a great supporter and gives excellent advice. She has gone out of her way to make herself available to me.
Jennifer is a therapist who is easy to connect with and can understand the problems of today’s world very well. She makes sessions comfortable and relatable and was easy to warm up to. She helps to ground her clients in session and I leave feeling calm and empowered to take on the week until our next session.
