She uses straightforward conversation to help people sort through painful emotions and find practical next steps. She is listed with LISW and LCSW credentials and works from Indiana. Dr. Bennett focuses on building a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can say what they feel and think. She listens for the patterns that keep someone stuck and helps them try out different ways of responding. Sessions are collaborative and goal-oriented, with attention to values, coping skills, and real-life changes. Her approach draws on therapies that teach skills people can use between sessions. She encourages short experiments and practice so changes carry into daily life. She also pays attention to relationships, communication, and how past experiences influence present reactions. Dr. Bennett has six years of professional experience. Her background includes helping people who have faced trauma, domestic violence, and complex family challenges. She also supports people dealing with career questions, identity issues, and reintegration after military service. Practical concerns are part of the work. She helps with anger, impulsivity, and control issues by teaching emotion regulation and problem-solving strategies. People leave sessions with specific tools and a plan to try at home.

How her approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters most to a person and taking action toward those values while learning to accept difficult feelings. It can help with anger, anxiety, and making life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for depression, anxiety, and everyday coping. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving how people relate to others, which can be helpful for impulsivity and strong anger responses. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences. That collaborative process helps shape which tools are used and how sessions are structured. The profile does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available formats before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people keep consistent momentum on skills practice between sessions. Licensed professionals tailor pacing and homework to what will work day to day.
