Benjamin Wayburn

Benjamin Wayburn is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado who helps people manage anger, stress, anxiety, and related struggles. He emphasizes the connection between body and mind and focuses on practical change rather than labels. Sessions are aimed at building resilience, improving problem-solving, and restoring self-respect for people who are motivated to change.

His style is accepting and nonjudgmental. He describes himself as inclusive and curious about each person’s uniqueness. He offers a mix of direct and non-direct work - sometimes helping set goals and a treatment plan, and other times letting the conversation guide the goals.

Benjamin frames many concerns as mind-body issues, so he pays attention to how habits, sleep, and daily routines affect mood and behavior. He takes notes during sessions and reads them aloud at the end so clients can track progress. Rather than prescribing homework, he suggests short experiments to try between meetings and then reviews results together.

Intended clients are those who come voluntarily and want to grow their coping skills, reduce drama in relationships, or change impulsive reactions. He names areas like trauma, addictions, ADHD, grief, intimacy-related problems, parenting strain, and career stress among the issues he addresses.

First sessions start with a casual greeting, a review of formalities, and a few standard risk and rights questions. A lead-in question helps begin the conversation and establish a working plan if that fits the person’s style.

How therapy approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take actions that match their values. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, and chronic stress. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early patterns in relationships and how they shape current responses; it can help with communication, intimacy-related issues, and attachment concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical behavior changes, which helps with anger, impulsivity, and mood problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences. That means trying experiments, tracking results together, and adjusting the plan when something isn't helpful.

Confirm which session types are offered before booking, since the biography does not list specific formats. Online therapy can make appointments easier to fit into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people continue work between sessions by reporting back on experiments and trying suggestions in daily routines. Licensed professionals can help tailor session length and pacing to match work, parenting, or other responsibilities.
