About
Meet Benny
Helping people find their way back to themselves is the work Benny was meant to do. He is currently training to become a Clinical Mental Health Counselor, but his path to this role was paved by years of seeing the resilience of the human spirit. Whether he's acting as a Training Consultant or life coaching a high schooler through a difficult family season, his goal is the same: to empower people to live fully, regardless of their past. Benny first fell in love with the 'breakthrough' moments while working in Special Education. Collaborating with counselors to help students overcome behavioral challenges showed that a strong, empathetic relationship is the best foundation for change. He brings a unique toolkit to the table, combining the precision of a consultant with the heart of a counselor. Benny's approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients recognize and reshape the thought patterns holding them back, paired with Reality Therapy to focus on the choices and actions within their control right now. Every small victory is a vital stepping-stone. Benny is here to walk alongside clients as they break through personal barriers, discover their purpose, and create lasting change that sticks. He is supervised by Rebecca Brooks, LMHC, LPC.
