About Benjamin
Benjamin Jensen is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) practicing in Pennsylvania. He has nine years of clinical experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, and changes in family life. Benjamin approaches each person as an individual and aims to meet them where they are.
He uses a mix of proven approaches rather than a one-size-fits-all method. That means sessions can include acceptance-based strategies, skill work to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, or emotion-focused conversation depending on what a person needs.
Background and approach
The focus is practical - learning tools that fit daily life. <brBenjamin works with people facing relationship and intimacy issues, grief, anger, low self-esteem, career stress, parenting concerns, and caregiver strain. He also helps those coping with ADHD, compassion fatigue, blended family challenges, and aging or geriatric concerns. Trauma and abuse are within his practice scope as well.
In sessions he centers the client's perspective and collaborates on goals. Conversations are straightforward and aimed at building coping skills, improving communication, and reducing distress. Progress is tracked by the changes clients want to see in their everyday routines.
Benjamin offers several remote formats including video, phone, live chat, and text messaging. He works with people across regions and supports international clients who use English. To begin, visitors complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on the therapist's availability.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choose actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, which often reduces anxiety and improves mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding and expressing emotions to improve close relationships and intimacy.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Benjamin collaborates with each person to decide which methods make the most sense based on their goals, needs, and preferences. The treatment plan can shift over time as progress and challenges become clearer.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for many people. Video sessions allow real-time conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging can fit brief check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, maintain continuity while traveling, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for regular work on anxiety, stress, grief, relationship concerns, and life changes.
