About Benjamin

Benjamin Zeiger is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Florida with six years of experience. He helps people who struggle with anger, relationship trouble, self-esteem concerns, and issues related to LGBT identity. He also works with clients on family conflict and questions about sexuality and non-traditional relationship structures.

Benjamin keeps sessions straightforward and practical. He listens first, then helps people notice patterns that lead to outbursts, simmering resentment, or repeated communication breakdowns. He uses clear, evidence-informed approaches to help clients practice different ways of responding to difficult moments.

His work draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness practices to reduce fusion with upsetting thoughts and to build actions that match a person’s values. He also uses client-centered and narrative techniques to help people tell clearer stories about who they are and what they want from relationships. These methods are presented in plain language and with concrete exercises to try between sessions.

Benjamin has particular experience supporting people who identify as LGBT and those exploring kink, BDSM, polyamory, or questions about gender. He addresses sexual behavior concerns and process addictions such as problematic porn use, gambling, or exercise patterns when these are part of a client’s goals.

People who choose to work with him should expect an engaged, problem-focused collaboration. He asks about what matters most, offers manageable skills practice, and checks in on progress each session. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment.

How his approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings and choosing actions that reflect personal values. It helps with anger tied to avoidance, rumination, or feeling controlled by strong emotions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, non-directive stance where the therapist listens and follows the client’s lead to clarify needs and goals. This approach supports people who want space to make their own decisions about relationships and identity. Existential Therapy looks at meaning, responsibility, and the tensions of life choices; it can help when anger relates to questions about purpose, freedom, or regret.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Benjamin collaborates with each person to see which methods fit their goals and temperament. He checks in on how techniques are working and adjusts the plan so sessions stay relevant to everyday problems.

The practical benefits of remote sessions should be confirmed before booking, as session formats are not specified here. In general, online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove the need to travel. If you prefer a particular format, confirm the available session options during the matching and scheduling steps so they match your routine.
