Jennifer Karr
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC)
About Jennifer
I’m a licensed counselor in Texas with 20 years of experience, specializing in crisis intervention and suicide prevention. While I have extensive experience working with individuals involved in the legal system—including those who are incarcerated, recently released, or facing legal challenges; my practice is open to anyone seeking support.
I work with adults from all walks of life who are navigating stress, anxiety, depression, feeling stuck, or questioning, “Am I normal?” My approach is casual, compassionate, and collaborative. I believe that therapy should be a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can be yourself, and I tailor each session to meet YOUR individual needs and comfort level. When appropriate, I also find that a sense of humor can be a powerful part of the healing process. I provided mental health services in jail for about 19 years and I have truly seen it all, so you never have to worry about being judged and don’t have to hold back or filter yourself.
In addition to working with clients facing personal struggles, I also support professionals in high-stress roles; such as law enforcement, correctional officers, attorneys, and first responders.
Reaching out for help takes courage and can feel scary, and I’m glad you’re here. Whether you’re dealing with something specific or just feeling overwhelmed, we can work through it together.
