John Karolewics, lcmhc-a

I firmly believe that you are an expert on yourself, and that you know yourself better than anyone. Therefore, I utilize an Integrated method in collaborating with you to come up with a specialized treatment plan for our work together. You will always be treated with respect and empathy and encouraged to grow in your autonomy, confidence, and sense of self. I will not shy away from challenging you to do inner-work that may pull you out of your comfort zone if it will help you to achieve your goals.

I have a diverse background and bring a lot of niche experience to the table. This includes working with all age groups and socioeconomic backgrounds.  I am a US Army veteran, having served as an Arabic Linguist and Armor Officer. I am an accomplished pen, ink, and marker artist, and value all forms of creative expression.  I have always been a strong advocate for social justice, and have over a decade of experience in the Civil Rights field.

I have an MS in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, and a BS in Speech Communication. I believe these two disciplines give me exceptionally useful skills when working with you. My base for therapy is an Integrated Approach with a heavy use of Solution-Focused and Adlerian techniques. My approach when working with you will depend on your specific needs and will be based on our collaboration together.

Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Western Carolina University
