About me

I am licensed in New York with 7 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with LGBTQIA+ related issues, family and relationship issues, trauma and abuse, anxiety, depression & anger management. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. It takes courage to change things that bother us or need to be changed. Together we can address the concerns and look for options. I have a laid back, genuine approach to counseling that generally works well with younger people.

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Jean Bennett. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.

Genuinely the best therapist I have ever had the experience with. Extremely professional and easy to talk to which has allowed me to be able to open up and be truthful/vulnerable without fear of judgment. A good way to be able to address issues openly. Very helpful and refreshing. I am grateful!!!

My son has been with Jean for a little over a month and it has really helped him to communicate better not only with me but to understand his own feelings and grant himself grace when experiencing the trials and tribulations of adolescence. We are still navigating our way through but this far my son feels like he’s found a sage space in her.
