The most rewarding and fulfilling times in our lives are the times when we feel respected, connected and heard. Often, we feel that our efforts fall short or we are just unable to communicate our desired intentions, either at work or in our personal or family relationships. Sometimes, we need the help of a professional therapist to improve our self-esteem, become more effective communicators or enhance our relationship dynamics. Ms. Benson specializes in helping her clients achieve understanding and mastery over their issues in a professional, comfortable and caring atmosphere.
Ms. Benson’s therapy is based on the systems model that promotes the idea that problems are frequently based on attachment issues and the interactive patterns they create. Utilizing an accelerated approach, she seeks positive client outcomes. Ms. Benson guides her clients in resolving personal and relational issues.
Ms. Benson helps guide clients who live with others displaying narcissism, obsessive personality, gambling, difficult personalities, porn issues, and lack of boundaries. She teaches effective coping and boundary setting, especially in situation of frustration with Asperger-like behaviors and lack of empathy in relationships.
