Westlynn Benton, LICSW
In her own words…
My goal is not only ot help you weather the current storm but also to empower you with the tools and insights needed to create a lasting and fulfilling partnership.
As a couples therapist, I understand that relationships can face moments of intense crisis that demand immediate attention and support. I am here to help you navigate these turbulent times, offering a safe and focused space to address the urgent issues threatening your connection.
Beyond the immediate crisis, I also believe deeply in the power of understanding and healing the foundational patterns that contribute to relationship distress. Together, we can explore the deeper dynamics at play, identify underlying wounds, and build stronger, more resilient ways of relating.
Westlynn’s Approach to Couples Counseling
Westlynn supports couples with an eclectic approach including Gottman, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Emotionally Focused Therapy. She seeks to enhance her work with couples through the Saving Your Marriage Before It Starts (SYMBIS) couples counseling tool. This assessment tool helps couples identify and focus on significant areas of difficultly as well as strengths to lay a strong foundation for those seeking pre-marital counseling and to reinforce the foundation of those established as a couple.
