About me

Born in New York and raised in Philadelphia, I have lived in South Florida for the past 25 years, and I've been an LCSW for 20 of them. I am comfortable talking to a wide variety of people and I enjoy discussing the stressors involved in work, in relationships, in parenting. I feel that everyone can benefit from having productive discussions about challenging issues. PLEASE NOTE - I CAN ONLY PROVIDE THERAPY TO RESIDENTS OF FLORIDA.
I have been doing teletherapy for the past 3 years, and I do not maintain an office for in-person therapy. I believe the teletherapy has opened to door for so many people who would not otherwise involve themselves in a weekly or bi-weekly trek to an office. I am comfortable with what I am able to offer through teletherapy, and while I understand that there are sometimes limitations, for the most part I find clients feeling rewarded by the experience. It's a brave new world.
I am happy to engage with people who are dealing with anger issues, relationship problems, adjustment issues, loss and bereavement, anxiety as well as mood dysregulation. I employ cognitive behavioral interventions when I see the opportunity, and find that these techniques can be particularly helpful with anxiety problems.

Please note that I do NOT conduct sessions while clients are driving.

I discovered Bennett after having some doubts with the first therapist that BetterHelp connected me with. Bennett immediately responded to me once I was matched & I had a genuine connection with him starting with the first session.

He responds to messages, offers actionable suggestions & has a great blend of a clinical & comfortable approach. I would highly recommend anyone seeking a therapist to connect with Bennett.

I highly recommend working with Bennett. He has a wonderfully practical and grounded approach that immediately puts you at ease. What I appreciate most, is his realistic perspective; he doesn’t catastrophize. He instead helps you see situations clearly, and helps you work through them methodically. Straightforward and reasonable in his guidance, Bennett is a therapist who will help equip you with practical tools you can use to bring balance and perspective to your daily life.

Wonderful counselor I couldn’t be happier. I really enjoy the feedback that I receive the active listening and the way that Bennett is able to understand where I’m coming from as a man.
