Andrew Benson, LCSW
Find Your Footing in Fatherhood
Parenthood. Anxiety. Depression. Trauma.
San Luis Obispo, CA
Somewhere between the responsibilities of work and the demands of family, it’s easy to lose yourself. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, disconnected from your loved ones, or burdened by things from your past, I want you to know: you’re not alone, and you don’t have to carry it all by yourself.
I'm Andrew Benson (LCSW), and my mission is to help fathers in California find their footing again. In our secure online sessions, you'll find a supportive space to be open and honest without any judgment. If you're not even sure where to start, that's the perfect place.
Together, we'll explore what's holding you back. I'll guide you with practical, proven tools like Mindfulness and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help you break free from painful patterns and find your peace. The goal is simple: to help you feel more like yourself again, so you can be the present, engaged, and happy father you've always wanted to be.
Your journey to better mental health starts here. Let's connect.
“A deep sense of love and belonging is an irreducible need of all people. We are biologically, cognitively, physically, and spiritually wired to love, to be loved, and to belong. When those needs are not met, we don’t function as we were meant to. We break. We fall apart. We numb. We ache. We hurt others. We get sick.”
