About Benjamin
Benjamin Harris is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with 20 years of experience. He came to counseling after graduate study at Northern Illinois University and a long clinical focus on anxiety and obsessive concerns. He aims to help people regain control when worry, panic, or troubling habits get in the way of daily life.
He began his work focused on obsessive-compulsive patterns and anxiety-related challenges. Over time he added care for depression and body-focused repetitive behaviors like trichotillomania. He uses practical, evidence-informed strategies to reduce symptoms and return attention to what matters most to each person.
Benjamin favors clear, step-by-step methods in sessions. He emphasizes exposure-based work and cognitive-behavioral tools to change unhelpful thoughts and avoidance behaviors. He adapts techniques to fit each person’s pace and needs, and he aims to make sessions active and collaborative.
People who see him can expect a mix of structured exercises and real-world practice between sessions. He pays attention to detail and often introduces creative ways to practice new skills. He also uses a light touch of humor when appropriate to ease tension.
Benjamin works in Illinois and communicates in English. He accepts international clients and draws on two decades of clinical experience to help people who are managing stress, low self-esteem, panic, phobias, or the daily burden of anxiety and depression.
