Jennifer Colón , LPC

Jennifer Colón is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a registered art therapist based in Texas who brings eight years of clinical experience supporting children, adolescents, young adults, and their families.

She has provided counseling and art therapy services through community non-profit organizations and schools in the DFW area, working with a wide range of concerns including stress and anxiety, depression, family conflict, relationship challenges, trauma, and anger management. The LPC credential indicates state licensure to provide professional counseling services.

Her counseling style is relaxed and collaborative; she frames clients as the driver and herself as the navigator in the therapeutic process. Jennifer blends strengths-based work with cognitive-behavioral and solution-focused techniques alongside art therapy methods, tailoring interventions to each person she meets. She often assigns practical between-session activities to extend progress, such as practicing a specific skill, responding to a journal prompt, or completing an art-based exercise.

Outside of her clinical work she draws, paints, and writes, enjoys movies and reading, and values time spent with family. She appreciates being outdoors and dabbles in gardening, often joking about her ongoing attempts to keep plants thriving.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Jennifer Colón uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where clients lead the conversation and the therapist offers empathy and support. This approach helps people clarify values, strengthen self-understanding, and set goals at their own pace.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing practical strategies to change them. CBT is often used for concerns such as anxiety, depression, and stress management because it emphasizes skill-building and measurable progress.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques are used when emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness are priorities. DBT provides concrete tools for coping with intense emotions and improving relationships.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. Jennifer works with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and she adapts methods over time so therapy fits the individual.

Online therapy with Jennifer is offered through live video, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing flexible access to therapy around work, school, and family commitments. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to practice skills between sessions in real-life situations.
