The issues I work with in therapy are mind-body issues. I do not have a mental illness approach. What is good for the body is good for the brain and vice versa. My openness and inclusivity influence my approach to therapy. I do not judge. I accept. I am more interested in your uniqueness than your diagnosis and I expect a full recovery in treatment.
I specialize in the spectrum of Depression and Mood Disorders, Anxiety treatments, and Trauma. I offer natural and behavioral treatments that have been shown through research to perform as well as, better than, and/or improve anti-depressants.
Research has shown that the fit between counselor and client is one of the most significant contributors to a person's success in therapy. I cant guarantee that I will be the best fit. I can say that I am not afraid to go wherever counseling takes us. Please reach out and we will work together to raise the quality of life

In my few sessions I immediately dove in with a full trauma dump and in the middle of a crisis and Benjamin listened and we are starting to work on my anxiety’s and I am making plans for my overthinking and I am feeling hopeful. I am glad I made this investment for myself.

Benjamin was incredibly kind and very insightful. He provided me with so much knowledge to advance myself forward in life, career, social situations, family issues, and more. He was timely and respectful and created a sense of comfort that allowed me to be able to open up more so than I'm used to. He read me back what I would say during our sessions which I think was the most beneficial aspect because it helped me reflect on everything immediately. I strongly recommend him as he is kind-hearted and a great listener who also provides a great deal of advice!

After trying therapy in a few different forms over the past year, I felt like I was getting nowhere. After a devastating no-show from another therapist when I really needed to talk to someone, I found Benjamin and I am SO grateful that it happened exactly as it did. I have gotten more out of the three 30 minute sessions with him than I did from all of my other work combined. He is gentle and kind, he listens and responds with so much care and thought and has given me actual usable tools to apply in my daily life that have made an astounding difference. I so highly recommend him and his approach. I can't wait to see where his help will take me moving forward!

Ben was my 6th attempt to match with a therapist I like (3rd try in BetterHelp), and my search ended with Ben. I deal with chronic depression/anxiety and Ben has really helped me to reach a better place by challenging my own self-imposed limitations. He keeps excellent notes and I really felt like Ben was truly invested in helping me to improve my mental health. Ben is always making sure that his approach is meeting your needs. I wanted him to challenge me at times, and to help me keep an even keel. And he responded in the best ways, with gentle prompts and calling back to previous sessions/notes often. Ben has been a huge help to me and I highly recommend him!!!

Written on Nov 30, 2022 after therapy with Benjamin for 3 days on issues concerning stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, and grief
I have had 5 sessions with Benjamin so far. From day 1 he was receptive, concise, and inquisitive. He addresses each concern and understands them - he takes notes and reads them back to you which is a great tool to show that he is understanding what I have talked about and worked on; it is also great for self-reflection. He leaves me with exercises/homework which we talk about on the following session, and gives practical tips to address specific behaviors that might be bothering me. Benjamin is always prepared and knows very well what we are working on and uses past conversations to create the full picture. My sessions with him make me feel like I am learning and discovering new things and really make me feel like I am making progress with what I am going through.

Very valuable therapist with a wide range of tools.
The sessions feel a bit rushed, I wish it was 45min instead of 30.
30 means we are closing the session at min 25.
