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 people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and issues tied to career and self-esteem. Sessions focus on clear communication and steady support rather than clinical jargon.
Jennifer draws on her earlier work as a school counselor and nearly a decade running a private practice. She prefers a client-centered approach that treats each person as the expert on their life. Sessions are straightforward: the therapist listens, asks focused questions, and offers practical skills and strategies when helpful.
Her approach includes attachment-based methods to look at how relationships affect feelings and behavior. She also uses elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills. For trauma-related work she can incorporate EMDR alongside other techniques.
People often come for help with abandonment, attachment issues, codependency, communication problems, divorce and family of origin struggles. Jennifer also addresses caregiving stress, compassion fatigue, midlife concerns, and feelings of isolation or low self-worth.
Sessions tend to be practical and paced to the client. She encourages clients to try different strategies and to voice what does and doesn’t work. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session so the plan can be shaped around the client’s goals.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Jennifer uses attachment-based work to understand how people relate to others and to themselves; this approach helps when patterns from past relationships affect current interactions. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills to teach concrete tools for managing overwhelming emotions and improving communication. For trauma-related concerns she may incorporate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) alongside conversation-based techniques.Finding the right approach is collaborative. She will review goals and preferences with the client and suggest which methods to try first. Changes are made together if a technique doesn’t feel like a good fit.

It can also allow brief check-ins or sessions that don’t require being on camera, depending on the format offered. These practical choices help sessions fit into everyday life while focusing on skills, processing, and problem solving.
