I was very happy to get in and get started quickly. She is straight forward and to the point. She took the time to understand my complicated situation and then helped me set goals to attack each situation. She calls me out when she needs to but is also super supportive and funny. I like her method, it feels like we are a team. She gives me things to practice at home and when I follow the recommendations, I see a big difference. Her style and approach are different from the typical therapy I've had in the past. I enjoy working with her.
I was impressed with how quickly Dr. Bensaheb was able to identify my core difficulties. I have not had a therapist who has helped me gain insight to why I have been struggling. It was very refreshing. Once we got rolling I thought I was just going to talk about my problems each session, but she had a plan each week with fun, interesting, and engaging homework assignments that has helped me overcome my anxieties. I am grateful to have Dr. Bensaheb as my therapist and I would strongly recommend her to anyone.

I initially hated her for challenging me so much. Every other therapist was so validating, she was focused on solving the issues by partnering with me. I get it now, this works, she works! She focuses on how to solve the problem with concrete steps vs. seeing how she can increase the number of visits or keep me as a patient for ever. Dr. Bensaheb is really great. Very thorough, I was able to get more done working with her in 4 weeks than being with other therapists for years.
