Benjamin Gleaves, LCPC

Benjamin Gleaves is a Kansas LCPC with 11 years of clinical experience who helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and life changes. He frames work around practical, evidence-informed methods and focuses on what someone can do differently day to day. Benjamin writes plainly and aims for straightforward, usable guidance rather than jargon.

He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and to build practical strategies that reduce distress. Sessions often include setting clear goals, practicing coping skills, and trying small behavioral experiments between meetings. This approach is useful for panic attacks, social anxiety, workplace stress, and repetitive anger reactions.

Benjamin also pays attention to relational patterns such as attachment and abandonment concerns that affect how people react under stress. He helps people notice communication habits, control impulses, and repair ruptures that leave them feeling isolated or resentful. He helps clients consider forgiveness and practical steps after separation or divorce when that is relevant.

Work with men facing midlife questions and identity shifts is an area he mentions often, where the focus is on values, life purpose, and rebuilding routines. He addresses workplace issues and social fears with concrete tools rather than abstract talk.

Sessions follow a straightforward pace: clarify a problem, try a focused tool, review what changed, and plan next steps. To start, readers complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.
