Jennifer Crisp, LPC, is a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 30 years of experience in education and mental health. She holds a Master of Education in School Counseling and a Professional Certificate in Counseling and Development from Lamar University. Jennifer’s extensive background equips her to work effectively with school-age children, adolescents, their parents, and other adults, offering compassionate and skilled support.
Jennifer understands that life and relationships can feel overwhelming, and at times we all need to feel heard, understood, and supported. For some this need may feel particularly acute during challenging moments or after enduring prolonged hardships. Jennifer’s approach emphasizes that no one has to navigate these struggles alone. Through counseling she helps clients feel stronger, heal from past pain, manage intense emotions like sadness, fear, grief, or anger, and move toward their personal goals.
Her areas of focus include anxiety, depression, and self-esteem, behavior and emotional dysregulation, grief and trauma recovery, identity development including support for the LGBTQ+ community, parenting challenges and parent-child relationship dynamics.
Jennifer employs a client-centered approach, tailoring therapy to the individual’s unique needs, experiences, and goals. She integrates techniques from Solution-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Narrative Therapy, along with psychoeducation to enhance understanding and empowerment.
For children and adolescents Jennifer incorporates play therapy and sand tray therapy, recognizing that younger clients often express their understanding of the world and emotions through activities and creative exploration. She is dedicated to providing a safe and trusting environment where clients can explore their fears, process feelings, and identify strategies to overcome life’s difficulties.
In her downtime, Jennifer treasures family time, especially with her children and grandson. She’s an avid traveler who has explored unforgettable destinations like Rome, Ireland, Puerto Rico, and countless beaches. Jennifer finds peace and joy in nature, enjoys participating in and supporting local Pride events, and values every opportunity to help others thrive.
