About Bennett

Bennett Burbank is a licensed clinical social worker with two decades of professional experience delivering mental health services in Florida.

Background and approach

He has practiced as an LCSW for 20 years and has focused much of his work on concerns such as anxiety, mood dysregulation, addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, and parenting stress. He notes particular familiarity with stressors tied to work and relationships and often uses cognitive behavioral techniques when these tools fit a client’s needs.

Burbank provides therapy exclusively through teletherapy and has done so for the past three years, choosing not to maintain a physical office. He emphasizes the accessibility teletherapy can offer to people who otherwise would find regular in-person visits difficult, and he reports that many clients find the remote format rewarding despite occasional limitations.

He also sets clear boundaries around safety, advising that sessions are not conducted while clients are driving. Residents of Florida only may work with him, and his practice offers a range of focus areas including trauma and abuse, LGBT concerns, compassion fatigue, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and various relational and life-transition challenges.

He brings a pragmatic, client-oriented approach that centers productive discussion and collaborative problem solving.

Therapeutic methods and online care

Many clients find practical tools helpful, and Bennett frequently uses cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop manageable strategies for anxiety, mood concerns, and stress. He also practices client-centered therapy, which focuses on listening empathically and supporting a person’s own goals and insights so they can shape the pace and direction of work.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options, try techniques that match a client’s goals and preferences, and adjust the focus over time based on what is most helpful for the individual.

Because his practice is entirely remote, sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to maintain regular contact without commuting, and they allow for consistent follow-up and skill practice between appointments.
