Heather Benjamin

Hello, I'm Heather, MSW, a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. Life happens, and sometimes a lot can happen all at once. Relationship struggles, family planning, career changes, navigating academic life, death/loss, depression, anxiety, postpartum, gender and sexuality, family stress, illness, trauma, and COVID-19 are issues we all have experienced. It’s easy to get overwhelmed by the enormity of significant life changes or even day-to-day routines, especially after a three-year pandemic.

Are you interested in getting help? Talking to someone who will not criticize, belittle, or judge you? As a therapist, my goal is to create a safe, calm, and open space for us to work together to identify areas of concern and work on new skills. The modalities I like to use include Holistic, Strength-Based, Culturally Sensitive, Trauma-Informed, and Solution-Focused approaches.

I specialize in working with clients dealing with PTSD, intimate and romantic relationships, dementia, anxiety, depression, family relationships, gender identity, grief and bereavement, LGBTQIA+ support, life transitions, medical issues and physical health, perinatal support (pregnancy, prenatal, postpartum), sex and intimacy issues, stress, and trauma.

I invite you to pause, put your needs first, and begin a journey of self-healing. Finding a therapist you feel comfortable with is essential to your therapeutic process. Let's work together to navigate the challenges you're facing and find a path forward that feels right for you.
