ABOUT

Jeremy G. Schneider, LMSW, MFT

Jeremy is a family therapist, social worker, and chief technology officer. That combination of clinical experience and two decades running technology is the foundation of the AI Awareness Arc, a clinical framework for understanding what happens when clients turn to AI for emotional support: why AI affects people the way it does, why clients turn to it, and how to work with a client whose use has become concerning.

He is the founder of Build On Your Strengths, a mental health education platform where he teaches trauma recovery, emotional regulation, and self-awareness to more than 11,000 members, with more than 900 five-star ratings in the past year.
