About Ben
What Do I Stand For?
Coming from a line of physicians, my family tradition is using my talents to benefit the people who come to me for help.
Insight should change how we live. My work is to help people see themselves clearly, understand what keeps them stuck, and move toward the life and relationships they want.
Why Work With Me?
I have spent more than 10,000 hours treating mental health challenges that degrade my clients’ quality of life. 12 years of meditation training help me provide a spacious, compassionate, and firm style of therapy.
How Will You Benefit?
I constantly iterate to provide modern and effective therapy to change the way clients relate to their own minds.
My clients are often those who ‘don’t need therapy’ or who think they ‘have it all figured out’.
That is likely somewhat true; and yet, my clients report progress in some key areas:
More emotionally available to others
More responsive and less reactive
More self aware of dignified approaches to living well
Much stronger ability to cut through chronic/daily anxiety
------
Less stuck in loops of:
1. Procrastination/avoidance
2. Black and white thought patterns
3.Depressive spirals
4.Resentment, arguments, and relationship conflict
