Jamie Arber, MA, LPC, CBIST, CCH Executive Director, The Supported Living Group. Jamie Arber is a clinician, executive, and systems strategist whose work sits at the intersection of trauma recovery, brain injury rehabilitation, and community integration. With a deep background in clinical-community psychology and over 15 years of leadership in the brain injury field, Jamie has developed and implemented innovative models of care that challenge the traditional institutional approach and reassert the importance of meaning, autonomy, and structure in the lives of survivors. From a clinical standpoint, Jamie’s approach is rooted in a recognition of the hierarchical nature of human needs, physiological, psychological, and existential, and how brain injury often fractures the scaffolding that supports identity and purpose. His work aims to reassemble that scaffolding through integrated supports that are clinically sound, individually responsive, and embedded in the community. As Executive Director of The Supported Living Group, Jamie led the organization to become Connecticut’s top-ranked provider of community-based services in its category, delivering over 15,000 hours of support weekly to specialized populations. His leadership has not only elevated service quality, but also transformed operational systems, expanding markets, securing sustainable funding, and advocating policy change through direct engagement with state officials. Jamie’s clinical insights and strategic vision have resulted in the development of specialized programs for survivors with complex neurobehavioral profiles, including vocational rehabilitation initiatives that emphasize not just function, but dignity and contribution. Jamie is a Licensed Professional Counselor with EMDR certification and a Certified Brain Injury Specialist. He has presented on neurorehabilitation, systems transformation, and trauma-informed care across a variety of platforms. His work is marked by a relentless commitment to reintegrating marginalized individuals into the fabric of society, not simply as recipients of care, but as full participants in life.
