Welcome! My name is Ben. I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of PA. I work with individuals facing a range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive space where clients can explore their thoughts and feelings, set realistic goals, and develop effective coping strategies to improve their overall well-being and achieve lasting positive change.
My approach to therapy is rooted in a person-centered experience for the client. No two clients are the same, so I pull from a range of therapeutic modalities—including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills, EMDR, and Existentialism—to meet each client's unique needs. I also approach my work in a trauma-informed way and never assume that I understand your experience.
If you feel like I may be the right fit for you, I encourage you to reach out and schedule an appointment to explore how I can support your journey toward well-being.

Yes, there are therapists who help with anger via Anger management therapy. It’s a therapeutic process that an individual goes through to manage their anger and identify its triggers. They’re given clear instructions on how to improve their angry behavior as well as a safe space for opening up about their emotions.
Once an individual’s triggers are identified, anger management therapy focuses on helping the individual process and respond to these emotions in a more positive and productive manner. The anger management therapist will provide coping strategies and ultimately help their client take back control of their anger.
The five keys to mastering anger include identifying triggers, pausing before reacting, calmly expressing emotions, discovering constructive outlets for frustration, and seeking professional assistance if necessary. Acquiring these skills through Anger management therapy empowers individuals to effectively manage and navigate their anger.
The best therapy for anger management often involves cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which helps individuals identify and change patterns of thinking and behavior related to anger.
Anger management therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Often, Anger management therapy lasts between 4-6 weeks. However, it can last longer, dependent on the individual’s needs.
Includes individual, couples, child/ teen, & family therapy
Includes reducing symptoms with medication & management
