Getting to know Dr. Benjamin Evare

Dr. Benjamin Evare (PSY 29833) earned his Ph.D. in clinical psychology from Palo Alto University. His clinical training has included a diversity of settings including community mental health clinics, government agencies, and schools. He completed his pre-doctoral internship at Community Health Awareness Council (CHAC) in Mountain View, CA where he worked with clients in a range of developmental stages, including children, adolescents, adults, and families. Ben believes that therapy, at the core, must be grounded in fostering compassion for self and others. He believes that many of us have critical internal thoughts that prevent us from reaching for our deepest goals. Drawing from an attachment perspective, he believes that fostering self-compassion gives one the strength to take risks. He has found that mindfulness practice can be a powerful part of the change process and can allow us to observe and detach from unhelpful streams of thought. Layered on top of Ben’s orientation of compassion, he believes that DBT skills provide an avenue through which clients can effectively manage emotions, take steps towards reaching their goals, and live a life with the integrity of one’s values in alignment with daily living. Ben’s research and clinical experience have been in the areas of compassion, mindfulness, empathy, emotional competence, attachment, caregiving, and parenting. Through this experience, he has come to value the nuances of tailoring therapy to the unique needs of each client. Ben believes that through practice we can foster new patterns that, when repeated, can lead to a more fulfilling life.
