About Jennifer
Jennifer Colón is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with eight years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, addictions, LGBT issues, relationships, parenting, anger, career challenges, bipolar disorder, depression, and coping with life changes.
She uses a practical, collaborative approach. Sessions are paced to help clients set clear goals and try different coping skills between meetings. Jennifer often uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new responses. She also draws on client-centered and solution-focused methods to keep work concrete and action oriented.
Her background includes work in community nonprofit settings and schools in the Dallas-Fort Worth area where she provided counseling to children, adolescents, and young adults. That experience informs how she helps with school-related stress, family dynamics, and early-adult transitions. She sometimes integrates art-based activities as a way to practice skills or process experiences outside of talk alone.
Sessions commonly include skill practice, brief assignments, and clear steps to try between meetings. Jennifer frames clients as the main decision maker while she acts as a guide and planner. This format supports steady progress on goals like reducing anxiety, managing mood, or improving communication.
She writes, draws, gardens, and spends time with family when not working. Those creative interests shape a practical style that emphasizes experimentation and measurable change.
How Jennifer uses practical approaches in online sessions
Jennifer commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot patterns of thought and behavior that increase stress or low mood, then to test small experiments that change reactions. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening and working at the clients pace while supporting their own choices and goals. Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques may be introduced for emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills when mood or reactivity are prominent.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, symptoms, and day-to-day life. That discussion can lead to a mix of skill practice, brief in-session exercises, and concrete action steps to try between meetings.
