Benjamin Hoover LMFT My role is to create a safe, genuine connection to help you find your way back to yourself.

I help and equip people to connect to their bodies, feelings and instincts. Most of our symptoms result from isolation and judgment and my role is to create a genuine, warm, compassionate relationship that allows clients to understand what is creating their struggles, be able to listen to themselves more clearly and find solutions that generate healing, hope and strengthen relational connection.

The beautiful experience that took place in a session with a client when I spoke to the anxiety I was feeling around him.

Anxiety Part 3= A Change Is Coming

In 2020, The week I left everything I knew to travel the States indefinitely, the Anxiety in me was through the roof, creating OCD-like Behaviors, where I fixated on my physical health. But had I listened to my anxiety it would have guided me to what I was really feeling, yet avoiding: A massive life change was happening, and although I was excited, I was also scared and sad.

Anxiety=anger???

Reflecting on a recent relationship that ended, I discovered for myself, that anxiety, which would surface intermittently throughout the relationship, is a secondary emotion (fear) telling me that I was stuffing down anger, which was also a result of not being vulnerable and honest in the moment. Yet when I listened to and honored these emotions, that prompted me to be honest, I stopped feeling lost and more at peace.

It's easy for me to forget, in a field of numerous interventions, techniques and modalities that promote freedom from pain, what is truly the cause of our troubles: feeling isolated and lonely. Most of our "symptoms", "disorders" and conflicts occur because we carry this ache of disconnection. Anxiety, depression, trauma, anger, feeling lost, grief, and more arise out of a sense of loneliness and longing, and our actions, like compulsive/addictive behaviors, OCD, affairs, etc, no matter the distress and hurt they create too, is our way of trying to reconcile and mend this part of ourselves that feels alone and wants relationship.

What I offer is a safe, genuine, caring connection that allows the opportunity to feel, heal, find yourself and repair your relationships. I know how to listen well and help you understand what is at the heart of your struggles and conflicts. I'm engaging, honest, direct, warm, and explorative.

I focus on creating a relationship with you, one that is collaborative, that gives you the space to talk openly, learn, and find direction. My desire is that from our connection and time together, you will feel cared for, safe, lighter and more hopeful.

Our Story

There are no promises that you will be “cured” of your problem, because therapy is a journey of self-discovery and a deeper understanding of why these so-called “problems” have been elusive to any form of attempted elimination. The true “cure” is the bold journey of exploring why these issues exist.

What I can tell you, is that therapy has the potential to be a beautiful experience of engaging with yourself in a way you have never been taught or allowed to do. I work with many problematic areas ranging from addictions, sexual problems, intimacy issues, marital/relational conflict, anger, depression, etc., most of which are significant messages of relational deficits. I also offer EMDR when necessary.

However, what, most importantly, I provide is a therapeutic relationship that is built from honesty, genuineness, humor, care, self-disclosure, shared-in-the-moment observations/reactions; all to help you potentially overcome shame, judgment and anything else holding you back from looking at and connecting to yourself in an honest, caring, loving way in order to heal and grow.
