Jennifer Colón, LPC

Jennifer Colón is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and a registered art therapist who has worked with children, adolescents, young adults, and their families. She has provided counseling and art therapy services for community non-profit organizations and schools in the DFW area, supporting people facing stress and anxiety, depression, family conflict, relationship challenges, trauma, and anger management.

Outside of her counseling work through Better Help and at the school where she is employed, she enjoys drawing, painting, writing, watching movies, spending time with family, and reading. She also enjoys time outdoors and gardening, and she sometimes jokes that she has delusions about keeping plants alive.

Her counseling style is relaxed and collaborative. She frames the therapeutic relationship so the client is the driver and she serves as the navigator, working together to set goals and develop action plans with kindness and compassion. Her approach weaves strengths-based perspectives with cognitive-behavioral and solution-focused techniques, along with art therapy practices, and she adapts methods to meet each person's needs. She frequently offers practical between-session activities such as skill practice, journal prompts, or art exercises to continue progress outside appointments.

Reaching out for help with life’s difficulties requires courage, and Jennifer aims to provide support, encouragement, and guidance for those ready to begin that work.
