Benjamin Young

Benjamin’s practice draws on Person-Centered and Psychodynamic approaches, while utilizing a number of other methods, based on the clients’ needs. These include REBT/CBT, Motivational Interviewing, Mindfulness-based skills, and Internal Family Systems (IFS). With these eclectic tools, he aims to create an environment where clients feel safe, accepted, and heard. Benjamin has a broad client base and experience in a variety of settings. He’s worked with adults, college students, and couples dealing with anxiety, depression, grief/bereavement, spirituality, relationship difficulties, career uncertainty, trauma, and substance abuse ​ Benjamin was an active member of the disaster recovery team following Hurricane Sandy in 2012, counseling individuals to help them cope with the personal and community loss caused by the storm. I create a calm and compassionate environment that helps you cultivate inner clarity, patience, and a sense of direction.
