About Kareem

Kareem Spence is a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, with 11 years of practice based in New Jersey. He works with adults who want help with anger, family concerns, self-esteem, career questions, and coaching goals. Sessions are offered in English and focus on practical change rather than long theory talks.

Kareem uses telehealth to help clients build coping skills and get clearer about their next steps. He helps people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or resentful to notice patterns that keep repeating. Conversations aim to turn those observations into small, usable strategies for daily life.

He addresses common challenges such as communication problems, impulsivity, fatherhood issues, and workplace stress. Money and financial worries, life purpose, and young adult transitions are also part of his work. Forgiveness and self-love topics come up when people want to repair relationships or rebuild confidence.

Sessions focus on practical tools and goal-setting. Kareem talks through triggers, practices simple coping techniques, and helps set realistic steps to change behavior. He frames progress in terms of what someone can try between sessions rather than abstract benchmarks.

Background work draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide the process. His approach is collaborative - he helps clients pick strategies that fit their day-to-day life. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the platform.

Approaches and how online sessions work

Two evidence-based techniques often used are brief skills work and goal-focused strategies. Brief skills work teaches concrete coping methods such as grounding, breathing, and short behavioral changes that help manage anger and impulsivity in daily life. Goal-focused strategies break larger concerns into practical steps to address career moves, family strains, or self-esteem problems.

Another common method is problem-solving practice, which helps people map out sources of stress and try different responses to see what changes behavior. That approach is useful for workplace issues, money worries, and decisions about life purpose.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist works collaboratively with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences. That means trying options, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together over time.

Because the biography notes telehealth, confirm the exact session types before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit work or family schedules into appointments, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and remove travel time. Ask about the specific session format offered so you can pick the one that fits your routine.
