Hi there! My name is Andrew Jarema. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and have been working in the mental health field for about 10 years. I’ve always been inspired by the many ways people have faced and overcome the great challenges of life. Through my time as a therapist, I have marveled at the resiliency, perseverance, and wisdom each individual has used to carry them forward despite any barriers they face. My focus in helping others relies on seeing the strengths they already wield in facing their problems.
I tend to use solution-focused and person-centered exploration to first establish a plan to approach concerns, empowering goals rooted in values we may already deeply hold. I draw from theories and techniques based in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, and other mindfulness-based strategies to help build objectives aimed at establishing confidence to keep moving forward. Though we cannot easily change all the problems we face, perhaps there is a version of us that continues to thrive despite it all.
Your goals are unique to you!
That being said, I hope to work with you to learn about the things that inspire you the most, the strengths you didn't realize you had, and the spark that keeps you moving forward.
