About me

I'm so glad your here and that you are ready to start this journey with me. My name is Jamie Benson. I am licensed Marriage and Family therapist in Illinois. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse. My interventions utilize cognitive behavioral therapy/trauma -focused CBT, EMDR, Dialectic Behavioral Therapy, and various couples models. Being trained in Marriage and Family Therapy, I look at each case through a systemic lens. I understand that relationships can be complex and I approach each relationship I work with based on the individuals and couples needs and consider them within their environments. I work with couples to repair trust, improve communication, and strengthen their emotional intimacy with each other. My background has allowed me to support divorcing couples, or parents looking to receive co-parenting therapy to improve their family dynamics. I love working with kiddos and have a back ground in ABA therapy, and play therapy interventions. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
