About Benjamin
Benjamin Wayburn is an LPC based in Colorado who focuses on mind-body concerns such as stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, ADHD, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related issues, depression, and career struggles.
Background and approach
He approaches therapy with an emphasis on how physical wellbeing and mental health interact, prioritizing each person's uniqueness over diagnostic labels. His work includes attention to attachment and abandonment issues, codependency, communication and control problems, and other areas like parenting, fatherhood, and compassion fatigue.
Wayburn blends collaborative and flexible methods to match each client’s readiness for change, offering either direct goal-setting with a shared treatment plan or a more conversational pace where goals emerge naturally.
He describes therapy as an experimental process rather than a homework-driven one, inviting clients to try practical experiments between sessions and reviewing session notes together to support progress. With eight years of experience, he centers inclusivity and acceptance while helping clients build resilience, problem-solving skills, and greater self-respect.
Sessions begin with a relaxed greeting and routine intake items followed by a question to start the conversation, and he adapts his stance to client preference whether that involves more structure or a non-directive style.
Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Benjamin draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and impulsivity. He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to support clients in clarifying values and developing psychological flexibility through mindful acceptance and committed action. Attachment-Based Therapy appears in his work when exploring patterns rooted in early relationships, helping people address abandonment, communication, and intimacy-related issues.Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to identify goals and preferences, testing methods and adjusting the plan over time so that interventions match what the client needs and is willing to try.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing options for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to maintain consistency around sessions, try in-the-moment experiments between meetings, and access ongoing support from a licensed professional without geographic constraints within the stated service area.
