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 and two decades as a school counselor. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, relationship and family concerns, grief, depression, and issues like sleep problems, anger, and low self-esteem. Jennifer also focuses on attachment and abandonment issues, codependency, infidelity, and career or life-purpose questions.
Her approach centers on building a trusting relationship first. She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside attachment-based and client-centered methods to help people name and work with difficult feelings. She also draws on DBT skills, mindfulness, and EMDR where appropriate to support coping and processing.
In sessions she listens for patterns that keep people stuck and helps them try different ways of responding. Conversations are direct and practical, with room to notice emotions and the relationship habits behind them. Skills work, grounding practices, and processing traumatic memories are options when they fit the person’s goals.
Jennifer emphasizes collaboration. She respects each person’s judgement about what feels helpful and adjusts her approach over time. People who have had challenging experiences or who want clearer answers about relationships and attachment often look to her for steady, experienced guidance.
To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Fees vary by location and use a cancellable subscription model.
How Jennifer integrates EFT, attachment work, and online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and reshaping painful emotion and interaction patterns. It helps when relationship habits and hard-to-name feelings keep repeating and causing distress. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early and current attachment patterns to understand how people connect, react, and seek safety in relationships. That work often helps with abandonment, attachment issues, and intimacy concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the person’s own experience and choices and keeps the therapist’s stance supportive and nonjudgmental while exploring feelings and decisions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Jennifer treats that choice as collaborative, checking in about goals, preferences, and what feels useful. She may combine approaches across sessions so the plan fits the person’s needs rather than sticking to one method rigidly.
Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life - for example, shorter check-in sessions during a lunch break, or avoiding commute time. Some sessions lend themselves to skill practice and brief coaching, while others focus on deeper emotion processing. Talk with her after the matching questionnaire about the session rhythms and length that would work best for your schedule.
