Seana Benting

Are feelings of anxiety or depression or questions about gender or sexuality affecting your life? Have you experienced trauma that is replaying in sleeping or waking moments? Do overwhelming emotions lead to acting out or shutting down? Would you like support navigating a life transition or difficulties in your relationships? Do you hope to improve your self-esteem or mindful attention to your life? Therapy creates a space for healing, growth, and change. I honor the knowledge and wisdom you bring from your experiences. My role is to partner with you to explore what is and is not working in your life, acknowledging personal and societal barriers to a gratifying life, and how to overcome those barriers. I employ an eclectic perspective in therapy. My practice involves building a therapeutic relationship with warmth, humor and acceptance while offering tools to reframe patterns of thinking, create positive behavior change, and explore alternatives to stories that may be causing you harm. I also use mindfulness and self-compassion to support therapy and am advanced trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy. A good therapeutic rapport is an essential component of successful therapy. If you think I sound like a good fit, I welcome you to schedule a free 15 minute consultation. Regarding insurance: I do not accept insurance, which is a deliberate choice. Insurance companies may limit the number or length of sessions, and types of therapy they are willing to cover. Self-pay affords you the ability to receive the treatment you are seeking and that is most appropriate. This means your private information is truly confidential and not available for review by your insurance company. You may submit sessions for out of network reimbursement. Some insurance companies will reimburse a portion of the cost for out of network providers.
