It has always been my passion to help individuals and families through difficult situations in life and find great fulfillment in improving my community one person at a time.

I am dedicated to helping individuals meet their goals by examining the connection between how they think, feel (emotionally and physically), behave, and interact in their various environments. I facilitate growth and change in my clients by teaching mindfulness, cognitive restructuring, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, as well as processing underlying trauma when needed. I provide counseling to individuals of all ages, couples, and families. I offer both in-person and Telehealth appointments.

Life is an exhilarating adventure filled with challenges, requiring us to navigate through obstacles and face the breathtaking cliffs that rise before us. In this journey, sometimes we need a compassionate co-pilot to help us find our way. It is both an honor and a privilege for me to accompany individuals on their unique adventures, for I firmly believe that your journey matters and, most importantly, you matter.

With over a decade of experience in the field of behavioral health in Arizona, I have dedicated myself to empowering others. I hold a BA in Psychology from the University of Alaska and an MS in Mental Health Counseling from Capella University.

My counseling approach is deliberately eclectic, tailored to meet your specific needs. In our sessions, I will listen attentively, challenge you when necessary, and guide you to tap into your innate strength, enabling you to navigate to the next stage of your personal journey with confidence.

It has always been my passion to help children and adolescents gain their full potential in life. I am dedicated to helping them meet their goals by examining the connection between how they think, feel (emotionally and physically), behave, and interact in their various environments.

I specialize in Mindfulness skills for Children and Teens. Teaching children ages 7-22 mindfulness techniques that help them become more calm, focused, and kind.

My name is Ben, and I am Licensed Associate Counselor working under the direct supervision of Terri Roman. My academic journey has led me to complete my bachelor’s degree in psychology and Master of Counseling from the University of Phoenix. Before this, I was in the United States Army for 9 years. I have learned many important lessons from while serving, during and after my active-duty status. Every single one of these moments helped shape who I am today, and I have learned to respect the journey and trust in myself. It was needed for me to learn from my experiences to become better, instead of criticizing my choices and becoming bitter.

This little explanation is just a small portion of what I like to do with my clients. I feel like examining the positives instead of condemning the negatives is a positive path to healing. I listen attentively and hear what they are saying about themselves and what it is they want to be. Sometimes, connecting these dots can be tough because finding the error in our thinking formula could take a while. With time, understanding, and guidance, I would like to work with you, on this journey, to discover your authentic self. 

I have found great success with the approaches of CBT, Humanistic, Mindfulness-Based and Existential. The reason for this is because we are in our own heads all the time. We are in our heads or distracted a large portion of the day and sometimes, we forget about the importance of who we are or the amazing things we have done. That’s what I am here, to assist and help when a person finds themselves going against themselves.
