Our Warrenton Staff

Andrew Harar, LPC

Director Warrenton

I have been with Youth For Tomorrow since graduating with my Master’s in Counselor Education from Virginia Tech in 2013. Prior to joining YFT, I have worked with adolescents and young adults in group home, foster care, partial hospitalization, and intensive outpatient settings. In addition, I have worked with children, providing therapeutic day treatment services in an elementary school setting. I work with children ages seven and older, teens, and adults, and specialize in working with families. In my counseling approach, an emphasis is placed on building a collaborative therapeutic relationship in a nonjudgmental and growth-encouraging environment. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy, in addition to employing Person-Centered, Existential, and Family Systems approaches. I am available to provide services in both our Woodbridge and Manassas locations.

A Northern Virginia native, I attended the University of Virginia graduating with a Bachelor’s in Psychology, prior to pursuing Master’s studies at Virginia Tech. I have returned to Virginia Tech for post-master’s education, seeking to continue upon a path of growth and advancement in my profession. In my free time, I enjoy exercising, keeping up with the local area sports teams, and spending time with my family and two dogs.

I am a native of New York, the son of Italian immigrants. I graduated from Christian Life College with a BA in both Theology and Missions. I completed my Master’s Degree in Professional Counseling from Liberty University. I joke that I have a PhD in Common Sense.

I have a Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Argosy University. I recently became a Licensed Professional Counselor.

I have experience working with mental health issues such as anxiety, depression and other mood disorders. I also have experience working with ADHD, Autism and other behavioral issues. I have worked with grief & loss issues, trauma and divorce/separation. I approach therapy by focusing on the person rather than the problems.
