More about Benjamin

  • 5 years' experience
  • Male
  • LCSW

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Clinical Substance Abuse Counselor in Wisconsin with over five years of experience helping families and individuals with their relationships, mental health, and addiction issues. I work with clients with addictions, anxiety, depression, parenting issues, grief, and overall life stress. I have a Trauma-informed Care Certificate from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, and I help people with trauma issues stemming from emotional and physical abuse.

My counseling style is compassionate, warm, and engaging. I believe in removing barriers to treatment such as stigmatizing labels and respecting each person's unique strengths and goals. I start where the client is to help them navigate life's successes and challenges. I combine motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy, humanistic and psychodynamic approaches to help clients live happier and more fulfilling lives. Our discussions will focus on the issues and topics that are relevant to you, and I will collaborate with you to meet your specific goals and needs.

I know that reaching out for help can be difficult and, change is never easy. If you are ready to begin the journey of living a happier and more fulfilling life, I am here to help you reach this goal.

I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
