About Jennifer

Jennifer Colón is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who blends structured therapeutic methods with a collaborative, client-centered stance.

Background and approach

With eight years of experience, she draws on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) alongside solution-focused and dialectical behavior therapy techniques to help clients set practical goals and develop skills for managing stress, anxiety, mood concerns, and life transitions. Her work often emphasizes identifying strengths, creating actionable plans, and practicing skills between sessions to reinforce progress.

Her practice addresses a wide range of concerns including family and relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem struggles, addictions, and mood disorders such as bipolar and depression. Additional focus areas include communication problems, codependency, body image, sexual assault and abuse, self-harm, and issues relevant to young adults and women.

Sessions are offered in formats that include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to accommodate different preferences and schedules. Jennifer approaches counseling as a partnership in which clients lead the process and she supports navigation toward their goals.

She brings experience from community nonprofits and school settings and uses practical, compassionate methods to help clients cope with life changes and build resilience.

Approach-Focused Online Therapy and Practical Skill Building

Jennifer integrates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and client-centered therapy into her online practice. CBT involves identifying unhelpful thought patterns and practicing concrete strategies to change behaviors and emotional responses, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathic listening and collaboration, creating a supportive space where the client’s goals and values guide the work.

She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills when appropriate to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Together, these approaches allow her to tailor interventions to each person’s needs and to focus on practical skills and short-term goals. Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process, and she works with clients to determine which methods best align with their preferences and objectives.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. This variety makes it easier to maintain continuity of care during busy weeks, travel, or other life demands, while allowing clients to practice skills between sessions through written prompts or assigned activities.
