About Benjamin
Benjamin Wayburn is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado who helps people manage anger and related concerns. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, ADHD, and relationship or intimacy-related issues. His approach is open and nonjudgmental and he focuses on practical change rather than labels.
Benjamin emphasizes the connection between body and mind. He looks for small, doable experiments people can try between sessions instead of assigning traditional homework.
Background and approach
Sessions begin with a brief greeting and some routine questions, then move into a conversation that sets a direction together. He adapts to each person’s preferences. Some people like a direct plan with clear goals, and he will help build that.
Others prefer a looser, conversational way of finding goals as the work unfolds. Either style aims to build resilience and better problem solving. Benjamin says he accepts people as they are and pays attention to what makes each person unique.
He takes notes during sessions and shares key points at the end so clients leave with clarity about next steps. His style suits people who have chosen therapy and who want to work toward change.
Background and approach: Over eight years of practice, Benjamin has used approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Existential Therapy. He combines these methods to match each person’s needs and to address issues like family-of-origin patterns, impulsivity, guilt and shame, and coping with life changes.

How these approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings while focusing on values and committed action. It is useful for anger, anxiety, and coping with life changes where taking small, meaningful steps matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect feelings and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with impulsivity, sleep problems, and mood. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to relationship patterns that began in family life and helps people understand how those patterns influence current relationships and intimacy issues.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit best based on individual goals and preferences. Sessions can follow a clear, goal-focused plan or take a more conversational route to uncover goals over time, depending on what the person prefers.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into a busy life. Video calls are good when seeing facial cues matters, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be more flexible, and messaging or live chat can be used for shorter check-ins or ongoing support between meetings. These options help people access consistent care without long commutes and with more scheduling flexibility.
