About Benjamin Jensen

Hello. I am a clinical mental health counselor who is licensed in multiple states and have 10 years of experience as a counselor. I use an eclectic approach to counseling as I believe each and every person is unique and requires their own style of counseling and learning. I have worked with individuals ranging from crisis to depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, relationship issues, trauma, and family concerns. I have worked with troubled children and their families.
I truly believe that the body, mind, emotions, and spirituality are all interconnected and in order to get the best results possible, you have to examine all areas of a persons life to help balance out their needs.
My counseling style is also eclectic in that I can match the approach to the needs of my client. I believe in treating everyone with respect and strive to always do the best I can to help my clients. I see each person as an individual and understand that each person has their own perspectives and understandings of their environment, allowing me to individualize each meeting we have together.

It would be my pleasure to have the opportunity to help you in anyway I can to help you through your life journey.

“When I first joined BetterHelp, friends told me it might take several tries to find the right therapist. Somehow, I was matched with Benjamin on the very first attempt and I couldn’t have asked for a better fit. His personality, non judgmental empathy, and grounding presence made me feel instantly understood rather than analyzed.<br /> I came to BetterHelp during one of the most overwhelming periods of my life; with challenges in my personal life, marriage, health, family, and career all happening at once. Benjamin guided me through that time with insight, steadiness, and a perspective that helped me reflect, grow, and rebuild. His ability to combine professional knowledge with genuine human understanding helped me become more grounded, more self aware, and ultimately a better version of myself. By helping me grow beyond the initial crisis, he has been far more than a therapist, he has truly been a life coach.<br /> My wife and I are forever grateful that I was paired with Benjamin at exactly the right moment. His support has made a lasting impact on my life, and I feel incredibly fortunate to work with someone so gifted at what he does.”

“Ben is awesome, he has literally saved my life twice and he’s so smart and listens and offers a variety of different ways to heal, I would highly highly recommend him”

“I can’t say enough good things about Benjamin. From day one, I truly felt like he understood me in a way no therapist has before. He made me feel safe, heard, and understood. His compassion and kindness is so needed for me and it’s perfectly balanced by practical guidance. I am so grateful to have a therapist who will call me out at the times that it has been needed. I’ve noticed real changes in how I handle stress, relationships, and self-care. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares and helps you uncover your own strength, Benjamin is the one.”

“he is able to pinpoint issues right away and offer solutions. He’s good….”

“Benjamin is thoughtful and considerate and provides valuable insight while giving advice.”

“He is great. A very good listener that seems to really understand issues that come up and ways to deal with them”

“Benjamin has been very helpful with my anxiety and panic attacks. Within one session, my panic attacks decreased by a major amount. I now only after three weeks can actually attend work and normal events with little to no anxiety. He has helped me in all aspects of looking at my life and identifying triggers that I never would of though of. He answers texts in a reasonable time manner and is very invested in my wellbeing.”

“I have never matched with a therapist so quickly. By the middle of my first session, I knew Ben was going to be a great match to work with.”

“Against all odds, I found a therapist who knew exactly what I am going through since he, himself, has gone through the very same thing. This thing is uncommon and rarely understood, including by professionals. I have gone through several therapists and almost gave up until I decided to try just one more therapist. Seriously, if one were to legitimately calculate the odds of this happenstance, those odds would be astronomically against its possibility.”

“Benjamin is great, highly recommend!”

“Great therapist”

“Benjamin is a great listener and knows how to make you feel comfortable. I would definitely recommend him as a therapist.”

“Benjamin is amazing and with his experience outside of therapy he can offer a different perspective.”

“I’ve done therapy off and on for about 5 years now, working with four different therapist. Benjamin reminds me a lot of the first therapist I worked with. Unfortunately I was unable to continue to work with that therapist due to an insurance change. <br /> I am glad that I found Benjamin and BetterHelp. Benjamin taught me more in just a couple of session than my last therapist did in an entire year. <br /> Benjamin is concerned with my safety, progress, and mental health. He’s willing to allow me to lead my journey and he’s very knowledgeable. <br /> I would recommend Benjamin to others!”

“Benjamin has already been such a great asset in my journey to a better life! He actually gives me solutions and listens to what’s wrong. I appreciate him very much.”
