About Jennifer

Jennifer Pelo is a licensed professional counselor (LPC, LPCC) who has run a private practice for nine years. She emphasizes a trusting relationship and a calm, steady presence while helping people face depression, anxiety, stress, and major life shifts. Her approach centers on respectful listening and practical guidance so clients can make choices that fit their lives.

She believes people carry much of their own wisdom and strength. In sessions she listens, reflects, and helps clients notice patterns that get in the way. She uses a mix of methods aimed at managing intense emotions, improving relationships, and working through painful memories.

Jennifer brings a background as a school counselor and many years supporting people through transitions and grief. That experience shapes a straightforward, caring style that focuses on real-life changes and problems. She works with issues such as trauma and abuse, caregiving stress, intimacy and relationship concerns, and compassion fatigue.

Her practice incorporates approaches that focus on attachment, emotional processing, and skills for regulation. She may draw on eye movement techniques, emotion-focused work, or dialectical behavior strategies when they fit the client’s goals. Sessions are collaborative and paced to match what each person needs.

People who choose her often want practical tools alongside a warm, steady therapist who listens without rushing. She helps clients sort priorities, set manageable goals, and take small steps toward feeling more grounded and connected.

This summary is based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp.

How her approaches guide online work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early bonds affect current relationships and trust. It helps people notice patterns in how they connect or pull away and work toward more secure, steady relationships.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy centers on identifying and naming core emotions in relationships and personal life. It is useful for people who want to understand their emotional responses and shift stuck interaction patterns.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches practical skills for managing strong emotions, tolerating distress, and improving communication. It is often used when people need clear strategies to reduce overwhelming reactions.

Finding the right match is part of the process. The therapist works together with each person to choose approaches that fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. That collaborative planning helps tailor sessions and the pace of work.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins that match your schedule. It can also let the therapist use EMDR, emotion-focused work, or DBT skills training in ways adapted for remote sessions when appropriate. Ask about formats and scheduling when you complete the initial matching questionnaire.
