Getting to know Aviya
Hello everyone!
I'm thrilled you stopped by to get to know me a little better.
I'm Aviya Bensky, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), and I'm here to share a glimpse into my world as a therapist who specializes in treating trauma, self-harm, and suicidal ideation. But first, let's get to know the person behind the title.
A Passion for Healing
From a young age, I've always been drawn to the intricacies of human emotions and the power of connection. My journey towards becoming an LPC started with a deep desire to help people navigate life's challenges, especially those grappling with trauma and emotional pain. So, here I am today, living my passion and striving to make a difference in the lives of individuals aged 14 and up.
Meeting You Where You Are
One of my fundamental beliefs as a counselor is that everyone's journey is unique, and it's crucial to meet people right where they are. I understand that the path to healing isn't one-size-fits-all, and that's why I'm committed to tailoring my approach to your specific needs and circumstances. Whether you're taking your first step towards seeking help or you've been on this journey for a while, I'm here to walk beside you, providing support, guidance, and a safe space to explore your emotions.
Collaborative and Empathetic
Therapy isn't a one-way street; it's a collaborative process where we work together to achieve your goals. Your input and insights are not only valued but essential. I believe in fostering a partnership built on trust, empathy, and open communication. Together, we'll navigate the complexities of your emotions, working towards a reconnection to self.
The Power of Vulnerability
In our sessions, you can expect a safe, non-judgmental environment where vulnerability is celebrated. I firmly believe that it's through vulnerability that we find strength and healing. Sharing your thoughts, fears, and dreams openly can be both liberating and transformative, and I'm here to support you every step of the way.
A Dose of Humor
Life can be incredibly challenging, and sometimes, a little humor can go a long way. Laughter, even in the darkest of times, can be a powerful tool for healing. So, don't be surprised if you find me infusing a touch of humor into our sessions when it feels right. After all, life's journey is made of both tears and laughter.
Thank you for taking a moment to get to know me and my approach to therapy. If you're looking for a counselor who believes in the power of connection, collaboration, and vulnerability, I'm here for you. Together, we'll work towards healing and hope.
Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or would like to start your journey towards healing. Remember, you're never alone on this path.
