Amelia (Amy) Benedict, LMFT

Amy is a wonderful counselor who has helped me to recognize my patterns of thinking and emotional triggers. She is unbiased and a great listener and often helps me see things that I would normally skip over in my life as important. I highly recommend Amy to anyone going through hard times, needing a positive outlet, or just looking to change your perspective on life. Thanks Amy!

Amy is a thoughtful, skilled, and is a responsive counselor. The BetterHelp format is cathartic. The writing narrative and skilled counselor response enables you to move forward in your development through the interactive platform. Merci

Amy is amazing. I've never had a counselor before, so I was a little scared to divulge intimate details about myself. I feel safe with, and understood by her. She's gentle with her responses, which makes telling her my life very easy. I highly recommend her! :)

I really enjoy working with Amy because she is non-judgmental and gentle in how she provides guidance. It feels like she is really listening, and she has thoughtful comments on how to get through the tough times. I also like that she doesn't always have to be right; if I disagree with her, she's open to talking about it and figuring out what works best for me.

Amy is a great listener and she really makes me feel heard. But she also challenges me to see things from my partner's point of view; really helps me better understand things from different views. It's so nice to have someone to confide in with no judgement!

Written on Feb 15, 2016 after therapy with Amelia (Amy) for 3 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, relationship, family, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related, sleeping, self esteem, and depression

Although I have only worked with Amy for a week, she has proven to be compassionate, gentle, and nonjudgmental in her approach. It's clear that she puts great thought and care into her responses. Whenever I become particularly negative, she is able to redirect my flow of thoughts into more positive and self-affirming territory. I appreciate that she asks probing questions to try to get at the heart of my issues, and I also appreciate that she provides some type of homework, whether that be adopting relaxation techniques or writing down a list of things that provide me with pleasure. She also remembers what she's asked me to do in prior sessions and holds me accountable. Other therapists I have seen in the past would sometimes forget what we discussed, which didn't give me much confidence in their leadership. Although I recognize that the patient is largely responsible for directing the conversation, every captain must also have a helmsman! I would recommend Amy to anyone in need of emotional support through life's tribulations, whether they be minor hiccups or deep psychological wounds from childhood. Online therapy may not provide a face to look at, but make no mistake--in the right hands, this works!

I'm dealing with a lot of my inner demons, so when I go on the site and I feel I can deal with them properly. Instead of ignoring or running away from my problems. She's one of the best of the best.
