Benjamin Rucker

Hi, I'm Ben. Are you struggling? I'm listening. You can feel heard and accepted in a way that allows your own inner wisdom to grow from within. Then, old patterns and negative self-talk can be overcome by healthy thoughts, feelings, and habits. My approach includes listening with empathy, resolving trauma symptoms, guiding toward solution, and being supportive of your relationship success. You can request a more passive or structured approach anytime. I specialize in helping you with loss, self-improvement, and life transitions. I also have a fun and unique way of working with children and teens. Evening appointments are available. I have guided people of all ages through anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, grief, trauma (PTSD), addiction, Post-Concussive Syndrome (TBI), eating disorders, career struggles, and disruptive life events (divorce or loss). Since graduating high school in 1995, I have been actively engaged in personal growth to overcome my own childhood traumas. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I will meet you where you are at, listen with care and empathy, and support your healing process. With a teamwork approach, you and I can work together toward your counseling goals at your own comfortable pace. Specialties: My influences include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy, SFBT (Solution Focus), Internal Family Systems, Somatic Experiencing, EMDR, Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR), and HeartMath as well as artistic and movement therapy (Polyvagal Theory) approaches. Credentials & Experience: My approach has to do with creating a new center of self through strengthening inner validation. Through discussion, new perspectives, and simple, gentle movement, you can learn to take charge of your own brain and nervous system, calming yourself and trusting the journey of life.
