About Bennett
Bennett Burbank is a licensed clinical social worker with 20 years of experience based in Florida. He has spent much of his career helping adults talk through stress at work, relationship struggles, parenting pressures, and mood concerns. He offers sessions only to residents of Florida and works by teletherapy rather than in an office.
Bennett keeps sessions straightforward and practical. He listens first, then helps people set small, doable goals.
Background and approach
He uses clear tools when they help and keeps the focus on day-to-day improvements. He also asks about how home and work routines affect mood and behavior. Over two decades in practice he has supported people facing anxiety, depression, bipolar symptoms, grief, and anger.
He also works with concerns such as addictions, compassion fatigue, and the strain of caregiving. ADHD is listed among his areas of focus and he is familiar with related challenges in daily life. In sessions he commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques to address anxious thinking and mood regulation.
He pairs that work with client-centered listening and elements of mindfulness to help people notice patterns and try different responses. Motivational interviewing is used when someone wants to make life changes and needs help figuring out next steps. Bennett has offered teletherapy for several years and finds many people benefit from not having to travel to an office.
He does not conduct sessions while clients are driving and does not maintain an in-person office. He conducts work in English for Florida residents.
Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening with empathy and helping the person set their own goals; it is useful when someone needs a respectful space to sort through feelings and choices. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete exercises to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Emotionally-focused ideas help explore and name emotions in the moment and can be helpful for people working on relationship or intimacy issues.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss what feels most relevant and try techniques together, adjusting based on the client’s goals and feedback. Clients and therapist work as a team to find what helps most in everyday life.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect: video calls for fuller interaction, phone sessions when video is not needed, or live chat and text messaging for brief check-ins and coaching between sessions. These options can make it easier to fit work around a treatment plan, use less bandwidth, or have a shorter check-in during a busy day. Bennett has several years of teletherapy experience and uses these formats to make consistent care more accessible for Florida residents.
