About Benjamin
Benjamin Jensen is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in Pennsylvania with nine years of experience. He works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, relationship and family concerns, grief, anger, and self-esteem. Sessions also address career changes, coping with life transitions, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.
He uses a mix of approaches rather than a single method. That means sessions focus on practical skills and clearer thinking when helpful, and on feelings and personal meaning when that fits better. He adapts methods from therapies like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and client-centered work.
In conversation, the aim is to name the immediate problem and try small, usable steps. That might include short behavioral experiments, tracking unhelpful thoughts, or practicing a different way to bring up a concern at home. Work can be solution-focused or more reflective depending on what the person wants.
Benjamin also gives attention to family and parenting pressures from the adult perspective. He helps people sort communication patterns, blended family issues, fatherhood concerns, and caregiver stress. He offers support around attachment, codependency, commitment worries, and intimacy-related topics.
Practical matters like scheduling and cost are handled through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Sessions are conducted in English and he accepts international clients. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first session.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking small committed actions toward them. It helps people who feel stuck by separating what matters from unhelpful thoughts and moving toward meaningful steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical strategies for changing unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Benjamin will collaborate with the person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means trying a skills-based technique for a while, then shifting to a more exploratory approach if needed, and reviewing progress together as sessions continue.
The therapist's biography does not specify session formats, so confirm options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, a shorter check-in can be scheduled during a work break, or a session without video can reduce bandwidth needs. Therapists and licensed professionals often adapt exercises and homework for remote formats so people can practice new skills between meetings.
