Hello! My name is Jennifer and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor in the great state of Texas. I have over 15 years of experience providing therapy services in agency settings, group private practice, and through my own private practice in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area. I am a mind-body, trauma-informed practitioner who has extensive knowledge and experience working with individuals of all ages as well as families who have been affected by crime and violence, experienced loss, struggled with depression, anxiety, obsessive thinking, suicidal thoughts, anger, panic, parental concerns, and stages of life transitions.
I received my undergraduate degree in Psychology from Texas State University in San Marcos, Texas and my Master's degree in Counseling from Our Lady of the Lake University in San Antonio, Texas.
Through the counseling process, I strive to help each client identify what they consider destructive patterns, whether they be in thoughts or behaviors that seems to keep them stuck or unbalanced in their day to day. I believe that to identify these negative thoughts and behavioral patterns sometimes it might be helpful to explore past or current stressful life experiences. Once these stressors are identified, I assist each client with setting goals, creating positive resources, and coping tools to relieve these stressors and work towards restoring their precious balance.
As someone who has experienced struggles in life, I can relate to feeling like its all too much. I will meet you wherever you need. If you just need an ear to listen; I will listen. Whatever you need, I will be there to support you. I would be honored to connect and work with you through this process.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Jennifer Deliganis-Bess. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Jennifer has provided an invaluable outlet for reflection during a time where I have been undergoing significant changes in my life. She is empathetic, supportive and asks great questions. Thanks Jennifer!
