Welcome!
I'm Carl Benedict, LCPC.If you've found my
website, then you're probably searching for help in finding a more
fulfilling life. You may not know what is missing or wrong. You may
simply feel empty, dissatisfied, angry, fearful, confused, guilty, or any
mix of uncomfortable feelings. Or you may have been struggling for
months or years with depression, anxiety, addiction, panic attacks, grief and loss, childhood abuse,
codependency, anger, or other problems of life. The
good news is that you are not alone and you do not have to deal with
these feelings in isolation.
My philosophy of counseling is quite simple:I believe in the inherent wisdom in each of us. Thus, I will help you discover, or re-discover, the wisdom that already resides within you. I facilitate this process through active listening as I strive to understand your life from the inside out. Then I offer insights and teach skills designed to help you understand and manage your feelings more effectively so you can make better decisions about your life. In short, I help you develop emotional intelligence - the ability to skillfully manage and utilize your feelings to create a more fulfilling life.
