Get to Know Ben
Who I work with: Adolescents & Adults
I have experience working with diverse populations from all walks of life. I am an openly queer therapist and am passionate about providing quality care to my community. I have years of experience working with people who struggle with complex trauma, chronic illnesses, and those who struggle with substance use.
I address every situation through a person-centered trauma informed lens. I primarily incorporate harm reduction strategies and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) in my practice. Too often we may find ourselves lost but I am here to let you know that you are seen and that you are worthy. Reaching out can be scary, but I will meet you where you are at. We can take the next steps together.
More About Me:
I am a huge nerd. I love tabletop games, indie video games, alternative music, and vinyls. I am passionate about social justice issues and often volunteer for local non-profits and participate in marches. If you’re lucky you may see me marching in heels.
