Ben Schartman is a dedicated Licensed Professional Counselor who understands that depression often feels like an overwhelming burden of unexpressed grief. He believes deeply in the possibility of transformation and knows that those struggling with depression can indeed find a path toward a happier, more serene life. Ben recognizes that every individual experiences suffering at some stage, and he is passionate about guiding clients from pain to healing. He specializes in helping adults and elders (65+) navigate challenges related to depression, anxiety, grief, and loss, as well as relationship issues and self-esteem. His practice also supports men's mental health, psychedelic integration, and individuals in polyamorous relationships. Employing a culturally sensitive, client-centered approach that integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Emotionally Focused Therapy, Gestalt therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Ben helps clients process emotions, gain awareness, and achieve their personal goals. He values the therapeutic relationship significantly, which is why he offers a complimentary initial session for clients to determine the right fit for their healing journey.
