Hi I'm Ben
My approach to therapy begins with evidence-based treatment, addressing the immediate reasons you’re seeking support, followed by deeper work with the subconscious once your day to day becomes more stable. Together we can return agency to your life by collaborating on tangible solutions while uncovering the origin of limiting beliefs. I conduct therapy sessions in English, though I speak conversational Tagalog and Cantonese. As such I am highly familiar with issues specific to bicultural relationships.
Ben’s therapeutic style
Finding the right fit is important. Based on reflect’s experience matching thousands of clients, this is our assessment of Ben’s therapeutic style. Keep in mind, therapists can adapt their style to your specific needs.
Rates
Mental health should be accessible, but therapy can be expensive. That’s why reflect has negotiated with Ben to provide their private pay services at a discount – up to 50% less than their typical rates on other platforms.
Note, reflect does not accept insurance.
