Benjamin Wayburn

Benjamin Wayburn is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, ADHD, addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, and career or parenting strain. He centers care on the body-mind connection and values openness and inclusivity in sessions. Benjamin aims to work with people who come voluntarily and want to build resilience and healthier ways of handling problems.

He focuses on practical steps rather than labels. Sessions often include simple experiments to try between meetings instead of traditional homework. He takes notes during sessions and reviews them aloud at the end to keep the work clear and focused. Benjamin is comfortable being direct when clients want a structured plan and also comfortable following a more conversational path to let goals emerge naturally.

Early meetings begin with a casual greeting and cover client rights, risk questions, and a lead-in prompt to begin the conversation. He emphasizes collaborating on goals and tailoring the pace to what feels manageable for the person in front of him. The approach looks for small changes that build toward greater self-respect and fewer relationship dramas.

Benjamin draws from mindfulness practices, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-based thinking, client-centered talk therapy, and cognitive behavioral tools to shape sessions. He blends these methods in ways that fit each person’s needs and preferences. He works in English and holds LPC credentials in Arizona and Colorado.

People considering therapy with him can expect straightforward language, practical exercises, and a focus on strengthening coping skills and everyday problem-solving.

How approaches like mindfulness and ACT shape online work

Mindfulness Therapy encourages paying gentle attention to the present moment and noticing thoughts and sensations without judgment. It can help with anxiety, stress, sleep problems, and regulating emotions by teaching simple awareness practices.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on noticing uncomfortable thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match your values. It is often used for anxiety, depression, avoidance, and building committed behavior changes.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns formed in early relationships and how they show up now. It can help people understand intimacy, communication problems, and patterns like avoidance or fear of abandonment.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That may mean mixing mindfulness, ACT, attachment ideas, and client-centered conversation to match a person’s needs.

Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm what online options are available before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Different approaches translate well to virtual visits through guided exercises, tracking experiments between sessions, and talking through relationship or coping challenges.
