About Benjamin

Benjamin Jensen is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with nine years of experience. He practices in Pennsylvania and works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship and family concerns, and parenting challenges. He uses clear, direct conversation to help people get unstuck and find practical next steps.

Benjamin adapts his style to match each person he sees. He combines approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and client-centered methods to meet individual needs. Sessions focus on skills people can use between meetings as well as the issues they bring into the room.

He pays attention to how daily routines, relationships, and meaning influence wellbeing. That includes work and career stress, grief, intimacy and sexual concerns, and caregiving strain. He also supports people navigating blended family dynamics, commitment and communication problems, and the complexities that follow divorce or separation.

Benjamin offers practical tools for managing strong emotions and improving self-esteem. He uses techniques drawn from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy when they fit a person’s goals. Expect straightforward guidance, role-play for communication practice, and step-by-step plans for coping with life changes.

Sessions are offered in English and Benjamin accepts international clients. He works with people across a range of needs, including ADHD, compassion fatigue, and aging or geriatric issues. If someone wants a mix of skills work and reflective conversation, he can tailor the plan to those aims.

How Benjamin blends proven approaches for online care

Benjamin uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT is practical and problem-focused, and it often includes homework like tracking thoughts or trying new behaviors between sessions.

He also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people clarify their values and accept difficult feelings while taking action toward what matters. ACT is useful for anxiety, depression, and long-term life changes because it centers what someone wants their life to stand for.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Benjamin collaborates with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals and preferences. He adapts techniques over time, combining skills training, values work, and supportive listening as needed.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video sessions are good for deeper conversation and practice work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone needs a quick check-in. Live chat and text allow shorter check-ins, written coaching between sessions, and ongoing support without scheduling a full video visit.

These options let people fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while keeping consistent progress through regular meetings with a licensed professional.
