Jerome (Jerry ) Vobejda

Reaching out for help can feel intimidating, but Jerome (Jerry ) Vobejda views the awareness that life is not where you want it to be as an important first step toward change. He generally focuses on the present, while respectfully considering past experiences when they reveal previous successes in managing the issues at hand. The therapeutic bond between client and therapist is central to his work, and he treats the pursuit and maintenance of that trust as an ongoing part of the counseling process.

Jerome completed a Master of Science in Counseling at the University of Nebraska-Omaha in 2005 and has worked as a mental health therapist in Nebraska for 19 years. He is licensed to practice as an independent mental health practitioner in Nebraska (NE LIMHP 1747). He brings experience across settings and populations, offering care to individuals, couples, and families facing both new obstacles and long-standing concerns.

His clinical experience includes work with anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, anger management, infidelity, life transitions, and other challenges such as addictions, family conflict, grief, parenting issues, career difficulties, coping with life changes, compassion fatigue, and attention-related concerns. Jerome has professional experience with inpatient care, case management, and outpatient therapy, which informs a multi-faceted perspective in treatment.

In session he commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused techniques, and Motivational Interviewing, while always emphasizing a relationship built on trust, mutual respect, and unconditional positive regard. Whether someone has been struggling for years or is facing a recent challenge, he believes collaboration can lead to meaningful progress. Jerome views the strength it takes to ask for help as the same strength that can guide a person toward greater satisfaction and well-being, and he aims to support clients as they pursue their potential.
