I’ve had a plethora of therapists from childhood on up to adulthood, and Bennett is by far the best. He’s attentive, listens and tries to understand my feelings, and comes up with manageable goals and tasks I can work on throughout the week to keep me on track and thrive. He’s also very kind, which is important to me. 10/10.

More about Bennett

  • 20 years' experience
  • Male
  • LCSW

Born in New York and raised in Philadelphia, I have lived in South Florida for the past 25 years, and I've been an LCSW for 20 of them. I am comfortable talking to a wide variety of people and I enjoy discussing the stressors involved in work, in relationships, in parenting. I feel that everyone can benefit from having productive discussions about challenging issues. PLEASE NOTE - I CAN ONLY PROVIDE THERAPY TO RESIDENTS OF FLORIDA.

I have been doing teletherapy for the past 3 years, and I do not maintain an office for in-person therapy. I believe the teletherapy has opened to door for so many people who would not otherwise involve themselves in a weekly or bi-weekly trek to an office. I am comfortable with what I am able to offer through teletherapy, and while I understand that there are sometimes limitations, for the most part I find clients feeling rewarded by the experience. It's a brave new world.

I am happy to engage with people who are dealing with anger issues, relationship problems, adjustment issues, loss and bereavement, anxiety as well as mood dysregulation. I employ cognitive behavioral interventions when I see the opportunity, and find that these techniques can be particularly helpful with anxiety problems.

Please note that I do NOT conduct sessions while clients are driving.

It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments.

I have been counseling with Bennett Burbank for about six months now and he has been extremely helpful. I initially told him what my goals and objectives were and how I would like his advice on various aspects of my life. He has been very mindful of my goals and has helped my to focus on them at each meeting tracking my progress. While he shown me the importance of understanding my feelings he has also given me great advise and guidance. I feel that after these six months of counseling I am much more confident and hopeful about my future. I'm grateful for having the opportunity to meet with him on a weekly basis. I would strongly recommend Bennett to anyone who is in need of therapy.

Mr. Bennett is the definition of what every therapist should thrive to be. When you speak to him you not only get the opportunity to let everything come out but he generally ask questions that make you realize he’s listening but also analyzing as you go. Every meeting has led to me feeling much better after our session. He’s easy to communicate with and thoroughly a pleasant person. Definitely give him a chance and watch him work his magic.
