About Jennifer
Jennifer Pelo is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) practicing in Colorado with nine years in private practice. She lists family and parenting concerns among her focus areas and works with adults on stress, anxiety, grief, relationship strain, and life changes.
She draws on a mix of approaches to match the person sitting across from her. Sessions center on building a trusting relationship first. Jennifer believes people carry many of their own answers and that therapy helps bring those forward through careful listening and practical steps.
In sessions she uses methods that help people notice patterns and try different ways of coping. That can include emotion-focused work to track difficult feelings, DBT skills to manage strong reactions, and attachment-based conversations about how past relationships affect current ones. She also uses EMDR for people who have experienced trauma and want a focused approach to processing painful memories.
Her background includes many years as a school counselor before opening a private practice nine years ago. That experience shaped her interest in family and parenting themes and in helping adults manage caregiving stress and family-of-origin difficulties. Jennifer pays attention to clear communication and practical tools that can be used between sessions.
She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. Sessions are offered in English and she does not accept international clients.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how they translate online
Jennifer often uses attachment-based work to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. That approach focuses on how people relate to others and can help with trust, intimacy-related concerns, and family-of-origin issues. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills to teach concrete strategies for managing strong emotions, reducing reactivity, and improving communication.She views finding the right method as a collaborative process. Together the therapist and client review goals and try approaches that feel like a good fit. If a certain method does not help, they adjust the plan and try alternatives based on the person's needs and preferences.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the available session types before booking. In practical terms, online sessions can make regular check-ins easier to fit into a busy home day. They can reduce travel time, allow quick midweek skill practice, or permit shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Jennifer will discuss which approach and scheduling pattern works best during the first session.
