“Ben has been nothing but supportive of my mental health journey form day 1! He has this ability to make me feel less alone when I am struggling with a challenge that seems to be targeting only me. He is warm and compassionate but pushes me to see the good within myself, and the potential that I have. He is cohesive and breaks down the confusing "therapy lingo" into more digestible ideas.”

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

Ben is great to work with. He spent our first session really digging into why therapy hasn't worked for me in the past. He's keeping me on task and not allowing me to be complacent just complaining about surface level issues. He, appropriately stops me to keep me on track or when something pings him as interesting and he wants to go down a specific route. He also at times just lets me go on my tangents but always circles back to help me understand the potential deeper meaning.

I’ve had a great experience with Ben, it’s been easy to connect with him and it feels like a safe space for me. We have been just really working through things at a reasonable pace and he offers great suggestions and feedback.
