About Benjamin Wayburn
Benjamin Wayburn approaches therapy from a mind-body perspective, believing that what supports the body also supports the brain. He emphasizes openness and inclusivity, creating a nonjudgmental environment that honors each person as unique rather than focusing solely on diagnostic labels. As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), he brings clinical training while centering the therapeutic relationship and practical growth.
Benjamin expects clients who seek him out voluntarily to be willing to change, build resilience, and practice problem-solving that reduces drama in relationships while restoring self-respect. He works collaboratively to help people develop those capacities, and he adapts his style to fit clients' preferences—sometimes taking a direct role in identifying goals and shaping a treatment plan, and other times allowing goals to emerge naturally through conversation.
Rather than traditional homework, Benjamin offers experiments for clients to try between sessions, and he records session notes which he reviews at the end of meetings to support continuity and reflection. A first session typically begins with a casual greeting, a review of rights and risk assessment questions, and a lead-in question to start the conversation. His practice emphasizes acceptance, practical change, and a partnership oriented toward recovery and growth.
