About Jerome

Jerome (Jerry) Vobejda brings a practical, client-focused approach to therapy that centers on present-day concerns while using past experiences to inform coping strategies.

Background and approach

With 19 years of clinical work in Nebraska, he combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with solution-focused methods and motivational interviewing to address issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, anger, addiction, trauma, and grief. His training includes a Master of Science in Counseling from the University of Nebraska-Omaha and he holds the LIMHP credential (NE LIMHP 1747).

Jerry emphasizes the therapeutic relationship as the foundation for change, prioritizing trust, mutual respect, and unconditional positive regard as ongoing elements of care. He has experience across inpatient, case management, and outpatient settings, and has worked with individuals, couples, and families facing life transitions, infidelity, parenting concerns, and a wide range of mood and behavioral challenges.

His style is collaborative and goal-oriented, helping clients identify practical steps to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. Clients seeking flexible, experienced support for coping with life changes, career stress, compassion fatigue, or specific challenges like ADHD, self-harm thoughts, or seasonal mood shifts may find his blend of evidence-informed techniques and relational emphasis helpful.

He accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English.

Practical Online Approaches for Real-Life Challenges

Jerry integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in online sessions to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts and develop actionable coping skills while maintaining a supportive, empathetic therapeutic relationship. CBT focuses on recognizing and changing thought and behavior patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, and mood problems, offering structured strategies for symptom reduction. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, validation, and building trust so clients can explore values, identity, and relationship issues at their own pace.

He also draws on Motivational Interviewing when clients are navigating ambivalence or making difficult life changes, using guided conversation to strengthen motivation and clarify goals. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process; the therapist will work with each person to assess needs, try strategies, and adjust methods over time so the work aligns with personal goals and preferences.

Online sessions are available via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing flexibility for busy schedules or geographic constraints. These formats make it easier to maintain consistent care, practice skills between meetings, and access support during challenging transitions while working with a licensed professional.
