Benoit Counseling Center, LLC

Kathleen Benoit, LICSW (Owner/ Clinician) I am a therapist with a passion for working with young adults (18-30) navigating their way through life stressors such as school, careers, relationships, and family. I have ample experience working with Trauma, Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, LGBTQ+ issues, and many other conditions. I feel everyone deserves a place to talk without judgment or fear of others expectations of them. I strive to offer a welcoming and supportive space for all. My practice utilizes a Strengths Based focus which aims to highlight the strongest aspects within you. Once we know what you excel at we build from there to reach your goals. By using the skill sets you already have, rather than trying to only insert new ones, therapy becomes more collaborative, efficient, and effective long term. LaWanda Whitaker-Ross, LICSW Are you or your loved are feeling overwhelmed and struggling to process a significant health event? Perhaps you’ve been asked to make lifestyle changes as a result & don't know where to start. Maybe you're a caregiver looking for a safe space where you can take a moment to breathe, speak freely & feel heard. If any of these relate, please know you don't have to do it alone. Much of my experience is in health care supporting individuals, their caregivers and loved ones. I fully acknowledge the strong impact that new, sudden and chronic health conditions can have on individuals and those around them. Together, you & I can process life's happenings and work towards your goals one day at a time. You deserve a space where you feel safe, can be unfiltered & are free to be yourself. Laughter and tears welcomed alike. I offer a supportive environment that balances empathy with honesty & encourages autonomy through empowerment. The thought of pursuing the therapeutic journey can be nerve wracking, kuddos to you for taking the steps to consider it. Finding the right fit for support on this journey is a big deal and it matters. If you've gotten to this point & are still curious, reach out to me & together we can explore if we are a good fit. I am looking forward to hearing from you! Erika Krause, LICSW One of the bravest things one can do is ask for help and support.
