About Jarely

Jarely Galeas is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with ten years of experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, depression, self-esteem problems, and changes that come with life transitions. She also supports concerns such as compassion fatigue, career questions, and family-related struggles.

Her approach is interactive and client-focused. Sessions involve talking through what feels most urgent and making a plan together. She uses practical strategies to help people notice and shift unhelpful thoughts and habits, and she brings attention to emotions that matter in relationships.

Jarely integrates cognitive behavioral techniques with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and elements of emotionally focused work. That means sessions can include thinking exercises, attention to values, and looking at how emotions show up in close relationships. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused methods are also used to help people set goals and try small changes.

She offers counseling in English and Spanish and practices in New York. The therapist emphasizes collaboration - clients help choose what to work on and how to try it. People can expect clear conversation, practical options, and follow-up on what is tried between sessions.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The subscription for sessions can be canceled at any time and fees vary by location.

How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions

Jarely works with several approaches that can fit into remote conversations. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing thoughts and testing how useful they are; it helps with anxiety, low mood, and unhelpful behavior patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes identifying personal values and taking small committed actions even when hard feelings are present. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at emotions in relationships and can be useful when people want clearer emotional connection or to change recurring interaction patterns.

Finding the right method is part of the work. Jarely will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and together they will try approaches that match those aims. The plan can shift as clients learn what helps and what does not, so decisions about methods are collaborative rather than fixed.

The practical benefits of remote sessions include easier fitting of appointments into busy days and fewer travel requirements. Some people prefer a phone or video meeting because it can cut down on commute time or make scheduling around work and caregiving simpler. Confirm the available session formats before booking so arrangements match individual needs.
