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 works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, relationship and family concerns, grief, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. Jennifer also lists support for LGBT concerns, sleep problems, anger, career questions, depression, and compassion fatigue.
She prioritizes building a trusting relationship before moving into deeper work. Jennifer believes people carry answers inside themselves and that therapy involves joining together to uncover those answers. She describes the first steps as practical and straightforward rather than theoretical.
Her approach blends attachment-based ideas with client-centered methods and skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). She also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) when appropriate. Sessions focus on clear goals, practical strategies, and looking at how early family patterns still show up today.
Jennifer often helps people understand family of origin issues like expectations, roles, and communication patterns that continue to affect adult life. She will talk through commitment concerns, codependency, abandonment, and problems with trust or jealousy in plain language. Work can include learning emotional skills, improving communication, and processing painful memories.
Her background includes many years as a school counselor before launching private practice nine years ago. That blend of school-based experience and current clinical work shapes a straightforward, relationship-focused style. To begin, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How Jennifer integrates approaches in online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand roles learned in their family of origin and how those roles affect trust and closeness now. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the person can find their own answers. It is useful when someone wants straightforward support and clearer choices. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) brings practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and reducing harmful reactions.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, past experiences with therapy, and what feels most useful. Then she will suggest options and adjust methods as work progresses so sessions match the client’s needs and preferences.
