About Benjamin
Dr. Benjamin Lasky is a California psychologist (CA Psychologist PSY19363) and a Nevada psychologist (NV Psychologist PY0726) with three years of experience. He works with people dealing with anger, anxiety, depression, relationship troubles, substance use concerns, and a range of other life stresses. Sessions are conducted in English and he practices approaches that focus on practical change and understanding.
He uses client-centered therapy to listen to what matters most to each person. That approach helps people feel heard and clarify their priorities before choosing steps forward. He also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at how thoughts and behavior interact, and solution-focused methods to set clear, manageable goals.
Dr. Lasky has experience with co-occurring problems such as substance use alongside mood or anxiety symptoms. He has worked with people facing grief, trauma, identity and relationship struggles, and issues like control, codependency, and communication problems. He aims to help people identify patterns that fuel anger and frustration and practice different ways of responding.
In sessions he balances direct, practical techniques with reflective conversation. He may help a person track triggers, test unhelpful thoughts, and try small behavior changes to reduce conflict. He also supports people dealing with burnout, compassion fatigue, and career stress that can worsen irritability.

How his approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to you. Online sessions using this approach center the person's priorities and let the therapist follow your lead to identify concerns such as anger or relationship strain.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In online work this often means tracking triggers, testing unhelpful thoughts, and planning small behavior experiments you can try between sessions to reduce reactivity.
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on clear, short-term goals and practical steps. Online sessions can be useful for setting specific targets and checking progress week to week so adjustments happen quickly.
Finding the right approach is usually a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust based on what actually helps. That means decisions about techniques come from discussion, not a one-size-fits-all plan.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the available online options before booking. Many people find online appointments help fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, and make brief check-ins easier to schedule. Other practical benefits include being able to use written worksheets and screen sharing during a session, or choosing a shorter meeting when time is limited.
