Bennett Solberg, LCPC
About me
I am licensed in Maryland and have 3 years of professional work experience. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. I am here to support and empower you in that journey.
In 1991, I graduated from the University of Minnesota with my bachelor’s in psychology and anthropology. While in the Navy, I transitioned as an engineer/Surface Warfare Officer to the Medical Service Corp. I have worked in various care settings, including Navy ships, and with the United States Marines. As a lifelong learner, I completed an additional Bachelor of Science in accounting, a master’s degree in human systems integration/operations research, public administration/health services, and a Ph.D. in health sciences. After retirement from the Navy, I continued my education, completing my Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Walden University.
I am a National Certified Counselor by the National Board for Certified Counselors. My practice focuses on human-centered counseling and applying hypnosis, biofeedback, and eclectic/alternative approaches in mental health counseling. I provide treatment primarily to individuals; however, I am also comfortable with couples, and groups for a variety of mental and emotional health issues and relationship problems, including anxiety, depression, grief, low self-esteem, and stress.
In addition to cognitive-behavioral therapies, I have a strong background in mindfulness, psychophysiology/biofeedback, and integrative/complementary and alternative medicine. I regularly employ hypnosis in treatment. I endeavor to guide and teach clients to manage the impact of barriers that prevent them from moving forward and successfully living their best lives.
I am a member of the American Psychological Association and Division 30 Society for Psychological Hypnosis, the Society for Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis (SCEH), and The Milton H. Erickson Foundation. I obtained certification in clinical hypnosis via the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis.
I am a provider established in Rockville, Maryland, and my professional specialization is counseling (mental health). My NPI number is 1861167116, and I was assigned in August 2021. My practitioner's primary taxonomy code is 101YM0800X, and my license number is LC13929 (MD). I am registered as an individual, and my NPI record is current.

Many years I have had trouble connecting with the right therapist and chose not to seak help. I have felt promise and hope with working with Bennett.
