About me

Born in New York and raised in Philadelphia, I have lived in South Florida for the past 25 years, and I've been an LCSW for 20 of them. I am comfortable talking to a wide variety of people and I enjoy discussing the stressors involved in work, in relationships, in parenting. I feel that everyone can benefit from having productive discussions about challenging issues. PLEASE NOTE - I CAN ONLY PROVIDE THERAPY TO RESIDENTS OF FLORIDA.
I have been doing teletherapy for the past 3 years, and I do not maintain an office for in-person therapy. I believe the teletherapy has opened to door for so many people who would not otherwise involve themselves in a weekly or bi-weekly trek to an office. I am comfortable with what I am able to offer through teletherapy, and while I understand that there are sometimes limitations, for the most part I find clients feeling rewarded by the experience. It's a brave new world.
I am happy to engage with people who are dealing with anger issues, relationship problems, adjustment issues, loss and bereavement, anxiety as well as mood dysregulation. I employ cognitive behavioral interventions when I see the opportunity, and find that these techniques can be particularly helpful with anxiety problems.

Please note that I do NOT conduct sessions while clients are driving.

I’ve had a plethora of therapists from childhood on up to adulthood, and Bennett is by far the best. He’s attentive, listens and tries to understand my feelings, and comes up with manageable goals and tasks I can work on throughout the week to keep me on track and thrive. He’s also very kind, which is important to me. 10/10.

Bennett is great. I was hesitant about trying this platform but am glad I did. He is attentive, compassionate and motivating, very happy with the assistance he's provided thus far.

Written on Aug 28, 2024 after therapy with Bennett for 7 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship issues, intimacy-related issues, sleeping disorders, and self esteem

He listens to me and is one of the best therapists I've ever had in a long time. I wish BetterHelp had a bigger discount to be honest because he understands where I need to go in the positive directions and where to find balance in those directions.

Bennett very much listened to me and the ongoings in my life, without judging the topics I wanted to discuss. He made me feel very heard, understood, and validated! I highly recommend him to anyone who wants a listening ear and a healthy perspective.
