He's A Really Good Guy And He Understands A lot And He's A Super Nice Guy Very Supportive

He is very good at listening. He also is very good at focusing you on what you are wanting to accomplish and offering insight on to how to gain perspective.

Written on May 20, 2024 after therapy with Benjamin for 3 weeks on issues concerning family conflicts, and trauma and abuse

After one session I had different perspectives, coping mechanism and strategies. Better help is worth every penny. I like that I could switch therapist but I actually enjoyed the first one I was paired with and stuck it out because I believe he can help me and understands me.
