“Dr. Lori Colon is an excellent therapist and listener... She connected with me during our first therapy session. It was a very professional and understandable communication between both of us. I enjoyed her charisma and advice during our conversation. Dr. Colon also followed her timing schedule as follows, and I am excited to meet with her again for our future therapy sessions.

Getting to know Lori Colon
Lori Colon is an LLMHC practicing under the supervision of Ted Kolsby, LMHC. She holds a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from The City College of New York and a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Columbia University, where she graduated with honors. Beyond her academic credentials, Lori brings lived experience, empathy, and cultural sensitivity to her practice, with a particular focus on supporting adolescents and adults from marginalized communities that are often underrepresented in traditional mental health care.
Lori is a compassionate and culturally attuned clinician who is deeply honored to walk alongside clients on their journeys of healing and self-discovery. She understands that therapy is not always an easy path—it requires courage, vulnerability, and a willingness to face life’s challenges with openness. Simply arriving at this point is already a meaningful and powerful first step.
Growing up as a young Puerto Rican girl in New York City, she often faced an artistic world that did not fully embrace diverse bodies and complexions. These experiences fostered in her a profound understanding of identity, belonging, and the pressure to conform.
Lori is driven by a commitment to provide the kind of therapeutic care that so many seek but struggle to find. She is passionate about creating a space where clients feel safe, validated, and genuinely heard. Aware of how discouraging it can be to feel overlooked—especially in moments of vulnerability—she strives to build relationships rooted in authenticity, collaboration, and trust.
With every session, Lori brings warmth, insight, and a belief in each client’s capacity for growth. For those seeking a therapist who affirms their story and walks with them through both the challenges and breakthroughs, Lori Colón offers a supportive, empowering environment.

When I logged into the Zoom, she was already there! Big smile, had me feeling comfortable instantly.
I can spot BS a mile away and she’s the real deal. I threw out so many names in our first session and I was amazed how she was able to remember ALL of them. Very thoughtful and kind with her words. I’m looking forward to this journey.
