Navigating your 20s or 30s can feel incredibly intense, but you don't have to manage the emotional waves alone. As an intensively trained DBT therapist, I provide practical, tool-based individual therapy online across NY, TX and CA, with in-person sessions right in Saratoga Springs. Because I specialize in DBT-informed individual therapy, I don't follow a rigid, multi-hour group program. Instead, I take the most effective tools from Dialectical Behavior Therapy—like emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and boundary setting—and customize them directly to your real life, career, or college transitions.
I work best with Young Adults & College Students who are navigating the intense academic and lifestyle shifts of Capital Region schools like Skidmore, or remote students balancing out-of-state transitions as well as Young Professionals in NY, TX & CA who are managing workplace burnout, remote -work isolation, overthinking, and intense imposter syndrome.
I also help Individuals Experiencing Relationship Anxiety who are overcoming cycles of self-doubt, setting healthy boundaries with family, and surviving dating stress. If any of these sound like you, please reach out for a consultation!
Call or Jennifer Plisko now for a free 15 minute consultation - (518) 806-7446

Traditional talk therapy is great for venting, but sometimes you just need to leave a session knowing exactly what to do when anxiety spirals or a relationship feels overwhelming. My practice balances deep validation with concrete, practical skill-building.
