Ben Gronich, MSEd

Psychotherapist
405 N Wabash Ave, Ste 208, Chicago, IL
So, you’re contemplating seeking out therapy. Congratulations, it takes a lot of courage to recognize that there are things you may want to explore, change, and/or better understand about yourself, the way you see others, and/or your environment. Finding a therapist you feel comfortable with and trust can be difficult. Painful life experiences, past trauma and current situations can lead you to feel stuck, depressed and anxious. I believe that we all have areas of our life that warrant closer examination. As your therapist, I aim to create an empathic judgement-free space where we can work together to achieve your goals. I have extensive experience working with teens and adults within the LGBTQ+ communities. Areas of focus include but are not limited to: sexual and gender identity, minority issues, racial equity, men's issues, acute/complex trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, poly/kink, sexual health, self-esteem, substance use, life transitions, and loss/grief. I believe deeply in the transformative power of the therapeutic relationship. As your therapist, I aim to create a supportive, respectful space where we can work together to best suit your therapeutic goals, even if those goals have yet to be uncovered. -- Ben (he/they) received a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Brandeis University. He earned his M.S.Ed. at Pace University’s School/Clinical Psychology Program and is completing his Doctorate in School/Clinical Psychology at Pace University. He completed his doctoral internship at the JCCA’s foster-care agency in NYC/Brooklyn in August 2021. Ben co-authored a chapter on gender and health in the Handbook of Health Psychology, published in 2019. Ben has also developed and presented lectures addressing the need for establishing better climates for LGBTQ+ youth and adults within various professional and educational spaces. Ben’s research interests involve LGBTQ+ mental health, masculinity, environmental systems, and the intersections of sexuality, gender, and ethnic identity.
