Ben Rea
Healthy Minds
For more than 20 years, Ben Rea, LCSW, has helped clients attain the balance and calm they seek. In depth training in multiple treatment orientations allows Ben to look at a client’s experience from many angles at once.
This approach, mixed with a fascination in trying to explain what unifies theoretical orientations, has led Ben to create several models that aim to explain psychological processes. The goal has been to quickly get his clients up to speed, so they can begin the rewarding work of learning to manage their own emotional system as quickly and thoroughly as possible.
