Narrative Therapist Ben Kreader LMFT
Specialties: LGBTQIA+, Anxiety, Depression, Communication Issues, Family Conflict,

Introduction

I am interested in your unique journey and focused on helping you generate new meaning and momentum from important moments that may have been neglected along the way. I believe you are not defined by your problems. My hope is that our work together might help you find the keys you may already carry to unlock the constraints of those problems and move forward with more possibility in your life. I draw on my own diverse background in business, technology, and the arts to bring imagination and creativity to our conversations. I hold a Master's degree in clinical psychology from Antioch University Los Angeles and a Bachelor's degree in film, music, literature, and perceptual psychology from Carleton College. I write songs and stories of my own, but as a Narrative therapist I am most curious about helping you tell your stories in a way that reflects your values and intentions as fully as possible.
