About

About Bennett

Bennett Burbank is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 20 years of practice, based in Florida. He has lived in South Florida for the past 25 years and offers therapy only to Florida residents. Bennett focuses on direct conversations about stress in work, relationships, and parenting.

He emphasizes practical, doable steps rather than jargon-filled talk. He helps people who are facing anger, anxiety, depression, grief, mood changes, and adjustment after big life events.

Background and approach

Addictions, self-esteem, relationship struggles, and parenting concerns are also part of his day-to-day work. He also works with clients affected by ADHD, bipolar mood issues, and compassion fatigue. Bennett uses straightforward tools from cognitive behavioral therapy when those techniques fit the problem.

He also draws on client-centered skills to keep sessions focused on what matters to each person. Motivational interviewing and mindfulness approaches appear when a client is working on goals or needs help with stress management. Sessions are offered by teletherapy only - video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging - and he has been doing remote work for several years.

He does not maintain a physical office and does not do in-person sessions. He also does not conduct sessions while clients are driving. His practice aims to help people find useful ways to cope and make changes.

Conversations are practical and aimed at helping someone feel more able to handle the next step in their life or in their role as a parent.

Online support

Approach and access for online parenting and life work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on meeting a person where they are and following their priorities. Sessions built on this approach aim to let the client lead while the therapist reflects and clarifies what matters most, which helps when parents or busy adults need focused, practical conversation.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, uses simple exercises to spot unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep stress and anxiety going. It is often used for anxiety, mood challenges, worry, and many everyday parenting stressors where small changes can make a big difference.

Bennett treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. He will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods that match those needs. Adjustments happen as therapy unfolds so approaches stay relevant to what the client wants to achieve.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for more in-depth work and reading nonverbal cues. Phone calls require less bandwidth and can fit a work break. Live chat or messaging can be shorter check-ins and help keep momentum between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep regular contact with a licensed professional.
